These line of thoughts is what made the game the mess it is. Because some spoiled brats think that being better at a game makes them superior to others. Look Mr Hardcore....whats wrong with casuals? Have you ever realised that some people might not even have the gear required to do MP1. And you talk about challenge? You used to play MMORPGS right? Cause challenge on a ARPG (aka hack and slash) is where your gear/spells allow you to do. You selfish people want everything, want companies to change games on the fly cause "you got lucky on farming". Look, do us a favor, want a challenge? Go do MP10 in all blue gear. Oh wait , i bet you dont want to, right?
xD you're funny bud... If people don't have the gear to do MP1 they still have MP0, am I wrong? And that's it becouse everybody can MP0 otherwise they can't even beat inferno.
I play no MMORPGS, nay. Seems to me that peple that "want companies to change games on the fly cause "you got UNLUCKY on farming" " are the QQers also casual gamers, which don't accept to play at lower difficulties and want everything now.
No need to go mad btw.

Seems that you can't read either
"So, to bring monster damage back in line with our originals goals from the system, we're implementing a hotfix that will reduce the scaling bonus to monster damage in Inferno difficulty by approximately 25% for all Monster Power levels."
this means that all the damage not only the abilities will be nerfed.
Still haven't learned yet, have we? If you read the blue post, it states that the current damage values are incorrect and are causing more damage than intended because OF A BUG. LEARN TO READ FFS.
In fact nobody cried...the only one time in the life of this game!!
I understand the fact that abilities were doin much more damage than intended, then adjust that but dont change the overall damage output. Fact is I'm tired of seeing this game being nerfed : (
MP are just perfect becouse you can choose how to play...why NERF em :\
This is a quote directly from the blue text above, which you neglected to read.
"When we originally designed and implemented the bonus values for monster damage in Inferno, we were unaware that a bug was causing monster abilities (i.e. Rare and Champion affixes) to not scale correctly with each Monster Power level. While this bug was caught during testing and did not make it into the game, the result of it being fixed meant that monster damage -- specifically damage done by monster abilities -- was ultimately higher at MP1 through MP10 than we intended it to be when 1.0.5 released."
Stop posting about how they're nerfing things. Lesson to learn, read before you post.
Even with insanely high defenses, only certain builds with the best equips can handle mp7 and up. Blizz's philosophy for the game has been to promote build diversity without forcing players to play a certain way to overcome challenging content.
All this change does is reduce the need to play a specific way. I for one see no problem with this move. Plus, this isn't a change because of players bitching and moaning about how hard higher mp levels are, it was because of a bug! That, you could say is Blizz's fault.
Don't get me wrong, a lot of the players who have spent millions on items to beat higher mp levels will be upset that they won't need that gear as much now, but that group of people is a small minority. Even so, that specific minority of people will still have the pvp patch to look forward to : )
really, I think you make no sense here. nobody was whining about the higher damage (crazy uh?) and blizz nerf the difficulty, again. Where's the challenge in the game now?People will be farming MP10 in a month this way...
Casual gamers won again?
Did you not even read anything I said, or the note explaining that the current %damage value was not intended, but was in fact caused by a bug? It was a mistake the programmers made, and its being corrected. It has nothing to do with public outcry. How difficult is this to understand?
