Thread: Patch 1.23 Notes up

Patch 1.20: Dec 12
Patch 1.20a: Dec 27
Patch 1.20b: Jan 19
Patch 1.20c: Jan 31
Patch 1.21: March 8
Patch 1.21a: March 26

I could go on but you get the point. Look at that, all of the lettered patches fall within 2-3 weeks of the larger numbered patch or the last lettered patch. The gap between the last lettered patch and the next large numbered patch is much larger. It's called a pattern from which you can infer information. We're getting a large lettered patch now and they've said the summer event starts in the beginning of August, which falls within 3 weeks of today.

3 Weeks from today is 7/18 at the latest which is mid-August lol

Optimistically it would fall within 2 weeks but the pattern shows that it's usually about 2-3 weeks. Obviously it's a rough estimation but the pattern has held true for the other patches.

Alright, but that doesn't explain why the patch notes are almost equal in match of a lettered patch though. I predicted No Spoilers so they didn't put much in the patch notes because of it. But just telling us the name of certain quests doesn't give us spoilers at all though, yet if there more to this patch than meets the eye.. How come they didn't put it in the patch notes?

Well, I'm more concerned about the 1.23 main patch itself then a little summer event that's come 1-2 weeks from now. Even the 1.22 Main patch wasn't outbeat by a/b Lettered patched that were pretty big. I'm just worried is all.
