I think you’re all jumping a little quick on this. It was a preview not final and your picking on perhaps a badly communicated change. But they said this stream would be more generalized then absolutely specific.
Even on Dulfy part of the notes is the following:
These changes will be in the feature patch. They are not a comprehensive list and some of them may not make it.
Personal Thoughts(On your reactions):
I’m not saying people shouldn’t voice their concerns, but have some general respect. I understand that everyone wants the game to be enjoyable and perhaps the developers don’t all play or understand a specific class to the fullest. Do you think each of the developers has the time to play each class the same? How many hours have you put into mastering Mesmer? They have lives and they have to think and develop this game in the same amount of time that all of us fit our lives and work habits into. Would you really want people to disrespect you for what is likely a decision by a team as a whole? Would you listen to people that are disrespectful?
