OP - 2.1 is about as bug-free as a patch of that magnitude can be. I know you expect perfection from blizzard, but if you think this patch is 'buggy', go play some other arpg.
Second, no matter how you balance, no matter what you do, there will ALWAYS be a BEST build for something that's min-maxed as much as possible. This is logically unavoidable. You're asking for the impossible.
Having said that, 2.1 has more build diversity than any other Diablo patch has had since release. I'm not talking about top 100 leaderboards, which is less than 0.01% of the population. I'm talking about the game as a whole.
TL;DR - you got a suspension because you're whining like a little baby. Grow up.
im not sure if you read the thread but its not just the fact that one build is stronger, its 1 build is so much stronger one can do t 6 the other can do greater rift 40 +. sounds like a no brainer to me, even if the damage was 20% less or even 25% less id still play leapquake barb over raekor. unfortanlly with my current gear my raekor crits for over 300 mill and with mostly best in slot my leapquake is critting for 76 mil and les often to and doesnt stun the enemy "unless i want to lose a ton of armor on my leap and die alot in greater rifts":
i mean really, is it to much to ask to balance the builds without one vuild doing quadrouple the damage? i like leapquake but unfortantly it sucks. and thats just one example. my friends a wizard and likes the vyrs set and cant even play it because once again, firebirds does more then 5 times the ammount of damage. thats just ridiculas in my opinion and people shouldnt just shrug and look the other way pretending its okay. you can say its hard to balance sure, but do you really know if it is or not? i can tell you this, if they can make all of these passives and skills and items for each class, then why would it be so impossible to do it twice? they did it for crusader. so whats the difference between a crusader and any other class?
The game will continue to be (re)balanced, blizzard said so in a post that 'balancing will never stop'. That said, I don't get the hangup people have with greater rifts. It's not endgame. Greater rifts have a finite end (somewhere in the 50s with currently available gear for 4 mans), after which T6 speed farming is where it's at. We're back to t6, greater rifts are only there for gem upgrades - but I'm glad blizz added another thing for us to do.
If you go back and read what myself and others have posted and actually do some research before posting here you will realize that this is quite false.
Actually he's right. And how does reading your previous posts prove that this statement is false? Ae you providing us with actual numbers about possible builds throughout D3's development? Point at a period of time where D3 had more build diversity. And notice that he said that he is not talking about the top leaderboards.
If you are just talking about putting skills together with no synergy then yes now there are more options because we have a 4th passive, but if you are talking about viable endgame builds that synergize well then no.
Love people that claims to be experienced and yet, they have no clue about the game.
eh...
I don't know who Silvach is talking about but Hyperion you are wrong. And saying endgame after two people stated that they are not talking about end game is just pretending to be stupid. Right now, on T6 , there are multiple viable specs for every class. Sure you can say "t6 is easy so everything works" but that's just wrong. Try gearing up from the beginning and you will see that T6 still hits like a motherfucker... In high GR every class has one build (maybe 2 in some cases) but before high gr there are multiple viable builds for every class and that's a fact. Point at a period of time where D3 had more diversity and provide us with examples to prove your claims if you really think that you are right.
Every class has at least 3 builds that are t6 viable at the moment and that's quite awesome.
nobody cares about t6 dude, thats why more then half of the people that play diablo quit the game and then came back was for greater rifts. you think there is actually people out there that just do nothing but t 6? i doubt it. and its seasons, there is always going to be room to progress on the leaderboards even if its by a few seconds. to say that greater rifts are not end game is just silly.theres honestly nothing else to do in the game unless you want to run t 6 over and over until you get bored and quit which what the majority of the players did last patch and i cant blame them. at one point last patch i couldnt stop getting into to the same t 6 games over and over and over because a level 56 and a 76 paragon were trying to "do" t 6, was never like that at all when the Ros first came out, got into a new game everytime which alone tells me the game was dying. at least now there is a reason to get gear in the game especially is seasons. there will always be room to progress on the leaderboards in seasons. nobody says you have to be #1

Pretty much very true
The whole game at this point is focused on Grifts. Sure there are some casual players that are just fiddling around doing nothing, there are a few beginner players that are still enjoying the campaign aspect of the game, and there are a few players that are just messing around in the lower torment levels still working on gear; but all of them are the minority.
The whole endgame is focused on Grifts and leaderboards, the people running T6 are not doing it for the fun of running T6, they are doing it so that they can get better gear, clear faster and progress farther in Greater rifts. That is what 90%+ of the current players are doing. Even low level people are collecting gear to progress farther and eventually do well in GRifts.
ive been saying that since this patch came out, most classes only have 1 spec and sometimes even 1 element. kind of makes people get bored of the game quicker.
Blizzard needs to start implementing and fixing the many problems in this game very soon or they will lose many of their more experienced and loyal player base.
I was playing D1 and D2 when they first came out, D3 had lost me completely when Jay Wilson was still behind it. RoS brought this since the beginning Diablo player back with much happiness in the changes made. The game is fun again and isn't that really the point of playing a game?
No offense, but it's pretty obvious why your post got deleted. You offer no insight as to how they can overcome their issues and are basically just complaining.
^ This. No offense OP, but saying there is a problem with the game helps no one. Start creating threads on how the game can be pushed in the right direction with complete and concrete ideas. I'd love to read what the community thinks and I'll probably join in myself.

Well, he is a customer, as we all are, and he does point out his issues (bugs, balance etc.). Is he supposed to provide revised lines of code to fix the game? I don't understand how pointing out problems "helps no one". OP is not trolling and is post is at least semi-well thought out, so I am surprised that blizz would delete a thread from a customer expressing their dissatisfaction.

Because it's not constructive criticism. It's just criticism which is looked down on. The three examples he gave about bugs and problems were fixed: two prior to his post, which he was aware of, and the other was fixed last patch (the pet survive-ability problem.) According to his post, he very much claimed that he knew how to program and knows how to implement it to fix it. No one expects him to, but if he can do it, then maybe he should. Complaining isn't going to fix the problem. The new development team doesn't read minds so we, the fan base, should do our best to explain why we need changes and ideas on how they can fix it. OP is "beating a dead horse." It's a saying that means what he's doing has no point unless his goal was to "beat a dead horse" or, in this case, ramble on about problems that were addressed without providing any sort of substance on how they should have been handled or should be.
I don't agree with an account ban on what he has written here, if this is an exact replica of what he wrote. It is far from offensive to deserve such a punishment but we'll never know what was written on the official forums in detail as it was removed.
