Have you all seen the post "Y'all best be trollin'"?? That guy completely destroys the patch, and Bashiok does agree with him. Its in the latest blue-tracker, i suggest y'all have a gander

I'm pretty sure they are going to release more patches with one big change at a time. It is much easier for them to balance it if they release one big thing at a time instead of everything at once. This first patch is for a lot of minor changes/fixes.

Bashiok responds with "I hear ya".  That's just his way of saying he acknowledges the opinion, not that he's in agreeance.  I believe you misinterpreted it.

The patch definitely doesn't meet my expectations.  I didn't even have that high of expectations.  I was hoping for more balancing of the characters.  Though, Respec'ing adds quite a bit of game play variety.  Now you can splurge your points into low level skills instead of strategizing your skill tree for the later levels.  The first 30 levels should be more interesting.

Still not enough changes to get me playing again.

it was known that the patch is playable offline too?

The same for me,

I expected balanced skill. Nothing done except minor change.
Too many skills are still useless to put more than 1 point in it (bad design) (example : static lv5 could be the lv20, lv1 could be lower than 25%, it will be more coveted to put more points in it).
More "gameplay" change in few skills like vengeance/conversion combined with zeal or smething like that. Fist of heaven mustn't triggered anymore when you click next to a monster (when you want escape, you don't click on monster and the spell is cast anyway !)
Many change like that it's a must I waiting for...

Hey guys, sorry for asking im just new, how do you get your gear in patch 1.13??

[DaWg]

Gamble for it, trade, or find it yourself pretty much.

[NovicE]

mm ok that sucks, there should be a place to get runewords and good gear lol hell difficutly is better for gambling?

[Magistrate]

I hate the instant level cheat as it is. I think if they offered another for gear I'd quit the PTR altogether. It's like impossible to find a normal game to run through.

Hell should be better, yes. It's also based on your level.

1.13 update near?

The Blizzard legacy team just released yet another Warcraft Patch (1.24d). Meaning, with luck, the team can yet again resume their work on 1.13.

We might just get a status update in a week or so. Soon ™.


(This is good news, sort of, to those of us D2 ladder addicts)

You did know that the patch is open for testing on the PTR (Player test Realm)?

[Ophion]

"resume their work"? We have not even recieved any news about that they stopped.

You are correct. However a new Warcraft patch was released today, and if the past is any guide it was produced by the same legacy team who we thought were working on 1.13.

I believe they are giving Warcraft 3 priority and that 1.13 virtually stops when work on Warcraft is needed. This mostly an assumption on my part, gleaned from various things Bashiok has said in the past.

Hopefully this will be the last Warcraft 3 patch for a while and they can really get to 1.3 this time.
