Anyway.

Back to the topic of wishes for EW that probably won’t happen: I wish they would shakeup the same predictable progression/patch schedule. I thought they said that ShB was going to be done different than what we had before, but it ended up being more of the same. Not sure what they would do instead though and I feel like they’ve settled for the same thing to happen every single x.1, x.2, etc. patch.

I also hope they balance the jobs well enough without erasing their identities. I liked how most of the jobs felt in ShB. MCH got a much needed and appreciated rework and was fun to play for once, and they removed the dark arts button from DRK which felt more like an added annoyance rather than “engaging gameplay”, but BRD had a new identity crisis and other jobs lost complexity in their tool kit that wasn’t as much of a gate keeping hindrance like MCH was. The trade off was that every job was viable in the meta, and I hope that at least carries over to EW and we don’t go back to the dark days of specific jobs being exiled from most savage runs.
Well what we’re discussing is a part of the topic at hand. If you look back and read you’ll see how it started. Anyhow, in response to your how shb was different than before, technically it was. The post patches were much more rushed
