I have seen many, many posts about how changes to item sets and skills go un-noticed. can we please stop calling them ninja nerfs. what you seem to not realize is that devs have to limit what they post on patch notes. do you really want pages and PAGES of things like "fixed this misspelling, and this misspelling, made this crab move here instead of here" yes some skills and things go unnoticed but many times it will be unmentioned cause it REALLY DOESN'T NEED TO BE! considering how much people complain already why create more complaining when they "nerf" a skill bug or correct an armor set. please take this as a public service announcement :P we need more constructive posts and far less complaints on how they supposedly NERF an ability. keep in mind this simple fact : when you use a bugged set that does far more than it acutally should or was intended ( LOOKING AT YOU SANCTUARY SET) and it gets fixed ITS NOT A NERF its a fix.

    the more details the better. Intentional or not,Ill decide when I read them what to filter out as not important,BTW your complaining about complaining.

    A ninja nerf is a ninja nerf. Since this game started every single nerf has resulted in unintended consequences worse than the original problems. Perfect example. AOE caps, DK's being to powerful, ult regen. Those are the know ones. Instead of buffing other classes we have DKs nerfed so badly 2 years later they are still recovering.
    Sorcerna, proud beta sorc. RIP April 2014 to May 31 2016 DArk Brotherhood. Out of retirement for negates and encases. Sorcerna will be going back into retirement to be my main crafter Fall 2018. Because an 8 k shield is f ing useless. Died because of baddies on the forum. Too much qq too little pew pew. 16 AD 2 DC. 0 EP cause they bad, CP 2300 plus 18 level 50 toons. NA, PC, Grey Host#SORCLIVESMATTER actually they don’t or they wouldn’t keep getting nerfed constantly.

    Im trying to bring some awarness to the fact that people lobbing complaint after complaint only brings rash actions. causing said nerfs to classes like the dragonknight which mind you were VERY overpowered in certain builds. I am just trying to get people to place more constructive arguments rather than " Im leaving because of *nerf to class or ability or armor set* which you cannot deny are EVERYWHERE every patch.

    Frankly many don't even bother coming to forums to post concerns cause all they see is raging

    Yeh, I'd like to see every combat/skill/gear related change in extreme, minute detail even if it takes 30 pages.

    Perhaps then zos could cut out the mentions of spelling changes and other small functionality? ive seen to many of those that people dont really wanna see. If a dev reads this i beg you exclude changes too spelling or grammer in descriptions and such. its a waste of space and perhaps you COULD include the skill/item changes?
