In all fairness @Blizzard Devs, roll back quest for people who have gotten cloak or make cloaks tradeable for a HC cache…cause alot of us who wanted to take out the time and put effort in early are screwed…some of us on several characters even!

This is a pretty bad and somewhat big miss…you knew you had an artifact cloak, yet cloaks were kept in the loot-table of max-level content you do after attaining the cloak?

Do some kind of adjustment 'cause this isn’t the way.

You brought hotfix, but you still haven’t fixed the pet bug. Since the start of S3 we still can’t do M+ or progress, you are forcing us to re-roll

32

Still waiting for any updates on this. You could also respond with something - we’d appreciate it. If it remains like this, it’s a half-solution and the equivalent of Blizzard showing the middle finger to everyone they’ve left behind.

So you will put a vendor in Dornogal that takes Cloaks as currency and give us a fresh box. Right? Right??
Can’t believe we get punished for loving and grinding the game!

Still no fix for this? Your silence tells more than a thousand words. ^^

This answer does not help the thousands of players who got bad loot thanks to you. Either give us another loot box or give us the option to do quest again.

I’m still having issues with this.

37

I still have issues with that as well. Yesterday, 5 completed delves in the T8–T11 range gave no progress in the Delver’s Journey.

And we are still waiting for compensation for this. Sometimes it feels like Blizzard is intentionally showing a middle finger to its players - and this is a perfect example.

tick tok time is running out for people to get the heroic loot they deserve due to your mess up.

Since nothing has changed with either of them, and I suspect nothing will in the remaining 18 hours, we can state that you have cheated and broken your own ToS by violating equal treatment and fair competition. Everyone pays the same amount for the game, you have no right to make distinctions between one customer and another. Yet this is exactly what you did.

An unqualified standard, ridiculous communication. You act as if you were untouchable gods, yet nothing could be further from the truth. I don’t know what is more outrageous: the fact that you managed to mess up something this trivial, that you then “fix” it in a discriminatory way, or that afterwards you refuse to communicate at all. Pathetic as it is.

If it weren’t for RP, there would be absolutely no point in cooperating with Blizzard on any level. You are simply ridiculous and treat your own costumers as annoying money faucets. Your arrogance is outrageous. You copy almost everything in the game - systems, ideas, lore, everything - from other developers, and when it comes to customer service and problem-solving, you could certainly take a few lessons from others as well.

Have a nice day, and enjoy hiding without a reply. Clearly, the best and most honest, most responsible thing to do after messing something up. (Sarcasm, yes.)

This has done nothing. People are dying too fast. People would die too fast even if you made it give 10% more. Nerf the damage already.
