    I'm still reading the patch notes, I've only made it half-way.
    WOW. >.<

    I'm very impressed. This is the longest most indepth page of patch notes I've
    ever read. Anyone have some favorites or confused about anything?
    I said confused not whining,yes I'm talking to you with the face.
    Eh, if you'd said the patch note with the most number of hilariously sad typos and copy-pasta errors, then I'd agree.

    As it is, I've seen longer and more impressive from Eve Online.

    I like that we're finally getting detailed patch notes instead of "some ability was maybe changed somehow."

    But... the notes themselves are kind of poor. So many typos, awkward phrasing, and things like the "ability" Marauder getting its recast reduced. Or the PLD pants getting changed from 69 def/35 m.def to... 69 def/35m.def. Or apparently those same pants being equipable by LNC and DRG before.

    I understand it must've been a lot to translate but it's very confusing in some parts.

    Oh! I just realized what that is.

    In cutters, theres a pair of pants called "Paladin Trousers" or something like that, and its WORSE in stats than previous gear, yet for some reason its green quality, and the name has "Paladin" in it.
    It cant be NEEDed on by PLDs, and its only decent for DRGs. (Unlike the body armor, which is good for both DRG and tanks.)

    Sorry, but a few typos and errors don't take anything away from the frankly staggering amount of content they're adding.

    Not saying it does, but frankly it's nothing to write home about either. Like I said, I've seen larger content patches in other MMOs, not sure why people are treating this as the holy grail of content patches. For example, Eve's Apocrypha update utterly dwarfs what's coming in 2.1

    Most people aren't saying this is the greatest update ever, they're celebrating the idea that they're getting a lot of new content for a game they really enjoy.

    The fact that one thing is larger doesn't make another thing insignificant.

    Then perhaps you should learn how to stop reading selectively, and actually read my entire post, including the one I was replying to, where he said:

    Or you know, you can just look up at the thread title, humbly named "Best Patch Notes from any game since EVER!!"

    The part I quoted said " not sure why people are treating this as the holy grail of content patches".

    I replied that "Most people aren't saying this is the greatest update ever, they're celebrating the idea that they're getting a lot of new content for a game they really enjoy".

    I think you should take your own advice about reading comprehension. OP is one person, most aren't like him/her.

    and the people I was referring to was people like the OP, your point?

    On that note, I'd also disagree with your claim of "frankly staggering amount of content", 2 new dungeons and 1 pvp arena, some daily quests and a lolhousing system that the vast majority of the playerbase won't even participate in, is not what I'd consider "staggering".

    At least not in a good way.

    I agree. I just finished reading it and it is very detailed. Also a lot of stuff being introduced that i knew nothing about.

    Kudo SE, kudos.
