Thread: Is anyone else really disappointed with the nerfs coming in 2.2?

I appreciate the humor (no sarcasm), but technically it isnt a free ride. They still have to fight the wall.

But here's the thing, when you work up the idea to go back to old content, unless you put on some DL or myth gear, then you will be overgeared for the content. I am over geared for Titan HM, but guess what? I can still get killed on that fight. I still have to obey the rules of the mechanics and the fight. Even with a 10% buff I imagine people will still die. And thus, it will still be challenging to "them".

But you have to remember, Time for development in reaction to user comments is much much faster in todays gaming market. Back in the FFXI days it took month before word got to the Japanese Players, and then on to the Japanese Developers. Today it's a million times faster.
