Diablo III Patched & Next Patch Notes [Jun 06, 2012, 9:22 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
The Diablo III Website has word that a new version 1.0.2b patch is now available in Blizzard's action/RPG sequel. This includes some bug fixes as well as changes to the auction house. Blizzard also offers this preview of the upcoming version 1.0.3 patch for the game, which will offer more significant changes when it's released later this month. These changes include much more liberal drops of higher level items, the addition of guaranteed rare item drops for killing a bosses when stacking Nephalem Valor, the dropping of monster bonus damage in co-op, the increase of repair costs, attack speed fixes, a drop in blacksmith and jeweler prices, and more. They say that class balance tweaking will not be a focus in this patch, and this will likely wait until version 1.1.
What's funny to me, you look at those planned loot table updates for 1.03 and I think to myself, Isn't this what they said it was going to be in the first place? That anywhere in inferno you could have the chance to get good loot, and if one was struggling to go back to act 4 of the previous difficulty? Could have sworn I heard Jay Wilson say something to that effect more than once.
Makes me wonder if they even tested much on the higher difficulties at all.
Only Blizzard can take 7 years a game and still need a dozen patches to get it right.
