Brann Bugfix and Buff — 15 September

That doesn’t bode well. Am gonna go in and see what it’s like.

Well that’s more or less what happened, Brann did all the work.

Anyway, no problemo.
In fact it’s easier for me. I can just ditch the Delves and make fun of peeps who are bragging about their T11 Brann runs.

Plenty of other things to do. :grinning:

Just got hit with this “hotfix” mid delve… its a joke considering bran doesnt do much of anything, he cant tank, heal or dps properly. If he gains aggro, he is dead in seconds now, even with this supposed 125% increase he received. His damage output is more along the lines of 25% of his original at the start of the xpac.
I can understand wanting to balance him for the best possible experience, but this isnt it. As a tank, bran has almost 10m health, as a dps he has around 7m, neither is enough with the changes they made. Had an ankle biter in the dread pit hit him for 6m per hit which shouldnt be happening.

Yeah just trying and Bran is so weak now. Oh well. Won’t be trying that deathless 11 anytime soon after all :dracthyr_hehe_animated:

just tested, he’s somehow worse than he was this morning, he did 20k damage on a pack.

Now you just need to fix the bugs that cause Brann to randomly on some pulls do 0 damage contribution at all.

Poor bran.

Also another complelty butchered hotfix from blizz.

They shoudl just fire someone over this fiasco

Doing deathless t11 was almost impossible before this, it took me over an hour and that was with resetting Cds every pull.
What they did was turn an almost impossible feat into something truly impossible now.

Now fix his non-combat range, feels creepy when he follows you that close.

Poor Bran

People care about this?

It seems so.
They are bragging about it in the forum.

And tbh, achievements do matter.
Shame Delves achievements do not anymore.

Can you also please make him get out of the way when were trying to loot, he makes it very frustrating having to walk away so he changes his position

Really? Really Really?

Come on, there can’t be people who still care about this stuff.

That any one have any attatchment to any thing retail after the shoe show this game has become is so weird to me

Lol, don’t count on me.
I said what I had to say.
Godspeed! :grinning:

It seems that along with the hotfix to bran, there is something else too. Creature attacks have increased in damage, Nerubian Lord melee hitting for 2.2m and Threadmancer bolt hitting for 2.7m and Skittering swarmer melee hitting for 3.1m.
If the intent was to increase creature damage again, please do us the courtesy of stating so in the blue post you put out.

i think blizzard should introduce a testing period for their games and patches.

for upcoming expansions they could call it a beta, and for upcoming patches they could call it the public test realm.

using these servers, they could take feedback and data from players and act on it so that it doesn’t go to live and they don’t have to put out the same fire 4x in 3 days.

but i’m not a game dev i’m just some guy so maybe this is a dumb idea, it is what it is

All I can suggest is keep making bug reports in game about these things, and state it’s after the hotfix.

I don’t know if they have hotfixed him, or completely broken him. I’m in T8 Earthcrawl Mines solo, and Brann is doing nothing, and I don’t mean that in a sarcastic way, he’s literally not on the damage meter. He seemed pathetic, and I just put it down to nerfs/changes/fixes, but when I saw Punyelf’s screenshot above, I realised he’s not on my Details display. Earlier today it was showing followers when I was farming chitin, so I don’t think it’s not a problem in my Details setup.
