This needs to be said

"The team's overall performance proved to be higher than usual."

This statement right here was the biggest gut punch, so I'm going to go ahead and call it out: There is no world where your balance team tested and tuned this fight to be clearable with every comp at full 610 iLvl. Whatever the reason, your balance and dev team failed, and rather than taking it on the chin and just admitting it, you came up with the bitter excuse of a sore loser that your testing team was just 'too good' and out-skilled the player base.

It is insulting that you would make the implication that your testing team is better at the game than people who have spent years attempting to perfect their play. I can forgive being lied to about the fight not being tuned to the week of extra gear, I can forgive not balancing out underperforming jobs outside of Paladin and Warrior just yet and applying the band-aid fix of adjusting the boss rather than the jobs.

Insinuating that your development team has more skill than many people out there that have devoted multiple years successfully clearing savage content on the first week is an affront to their time and dedication.

I can't speak for every person out there that has dedicated time into becoming a strong player, but I personally am appalled at the poor excuses that Square Enix has given regarding this matter. I feel that Square Enix is going in the direction of Blizzard with how horrendous the balance and PR has been, and rather than just sweeping it under the rug, something needed to be said about it.

Fix your game, Square.

Honestly this didn’t need to be said. At all. I don’t think the post was trying to be disrespectful and you are offended because someone said things in a way you found hurtful to your pride. SE apologized in their post and is making corrections. This is just Karen behavior.

You do have a point about job balance but the way you delivered your message on this forum is way more toxic than the post SE did. You are not going to gain anything by being offended and using accusatory language other than disdain and animosity.
