Since you obviously don’t test internally, did you really not notice that pistol whip and other CC were affected and not accommodated?
Learn your own game, please. I can handle not using S/P for a while (if it even gets fixed) but the fact that major changes like this go unnoticed or you just don’t care is quite scary.
This game needs a player test realm, where we can feedback about changes and what it all has affected instead of releasing the patch to the public and letting them suffer while we scratch our heads in awe, simply HOPING that you notice and will take action.
I haven’t seen a reply concerning thief yet, would really appreciate an “ok, we’re working on it” or “this was intended” so I know what to do.
