Quote:[COLOR="#0000FF"]We’re planning to make several bug fixes to Call of the Ancients in patch 2.1 that should address some of the concerns we’ve seen players reporting with the skill. So, make sure you keep a hold of that Immortal Kings set!

- The Ancients should no longer sometimes stand idle when they have foes they could be clobbering instead.
- The Ancients should now use their secondary abilities as indicated on the tooltip.

Again, these bug fixes are currently expected to arrive with patch 2.1, but we don’t have an estimate to share for the date of that patch at this time. Thanks for all of the reports!

Quote:I find that the idle thing happens often with WD pets too. Mostly the Zombie dog w/ tall mans finger and Gargantuan

I did some digging and found out that these changes will update multiple pets, and not just Call of the Ancients. I'll go over what those changes are, and what pets it should affect. I also want to emphasize that we don’t have an estimate to share for when we expect patch 2.1, but we’re definitely working on it and are looking to provide a PTR.

• We're making a number improvements to the AI of several pets
  
• We're also fixing a number of issues that sometimes prevented some pets from attacking nearby enemies, or caused them to stand still and stop attacking their current target
  • Pets affected by these changes should include:
    • Call of the Ancients
      
    • Companion
      
    • Fetish Army
      
    • Gargantuan
      
    • Mystic Ally
      
    • Phalanx
      
    • Zombie Dogs

Quote:[COLOR="#0000FF"]Hi Everyone,
Thanks for all of the reports about this. I just wanted to pop in here and let you all know that we are aware of this issue and have a potential fix in place internally that should resolve this. I obviously can't make any promises about when this fix may appear on live servers, but we are hoping to include it with our next game patch.
Thanks for your patience and all of the reports about this![/COLOR]

Pretty nifty if you ask me.

Quote:[COLOR="#0000FF"]We've seen a ton of feedback lately about the relative power levels between classes, and it seems a good time to explain a bit behind our philosophy of where we'd like to see each class go from here.

The Witch Doctor is currently very strong. That is awesome, and we're happy to hear Witch Doctor players are having a blast with their characters and that players who have never considered playing the Witch Doctor before are giving it a whirl.

The Witch Doctor's current level of power comes largely from the powerful items they have available. Ideally, we'd like all classes to have fun and powerful item builds and that means taking a look at what equipment is available. This is something we’re actively pursuing, and while some of the other classes are almost there, others have some additional room for growth. We've already mentioned some of the upcoming Monk set changes we have on the way, but they aren't the only class we’re keeping a watchful eye on. Ultimately, we'd like to strive for a place where each class has an equal crack at end game success, especially with Seasons and Tiered Rifts on the near horizon. It’s likely each class will accomplish that in different ways, because they are inherently so different from one another, and that’s okay!

Allow me to caveat the above with the fact we won't get there overnight. This is an overarching development goal, and a continuing journey rather than a destination. Our work is never truly done, especially because we have every intention of continuing to make awesome items. On our way through this ongoing process, we appreciate your feedback.[/COLOR]

Lots of positive QOL changes.

I hope to god this gets implemented in the PC version eventually.

• Old Legendaries are going to get revamped in 2.1, but not retroactively, so hoarding them now is pointless
  
• No ETA for 2.1 yet, but some information about the patch will be shared 'pretty soon'
  
• Details about Legendary Gems are coming 'very soon' in a blog post
  
• The aforementioned Legendary gems will most probably fit into Rings and Amulets
  
• The devs are currently looking at how the Infernal Machine events can be improved (both as process and reward structure)
  
• The so-called "Hellfire Amulet" will come with 2.1
  
• Hellfire Amulet will unlock a randomly rolled Passive for your class
  
• Tiered Rifts are not going to be static dungeons: they are random - same as Nephalem Rifts, but the devs are working on toning down the amount of randomness that can impact the time for finishing a Rift
  
• Reduction of Conduit Pylon's power is being tested internally for Tiered Rifts, because the devs don't want players at the top of the Leaderboards to be there just because of luck
  
• The monsters in Tiered Rifts will drop no loot, but the bosses at the end will compensate with huge amounts of loot, including a very high chance for Legendaries, gems, crafting plans, and so on
  
• Cindercoat used to be even stronger internally and already was tuned down, but Blizzard is aware that it is still REALLY strong; no plans to nerf it though
  
• Invoker Set was originally intended to be a Crusader set as Thorns was a larger theme for Crusaders
  
• The devs are working on a new Crusader set that will buff Phalanx or Shield Bash
  
• Kadala is supposed to have a more positive attitude, but there's a bug that causes her to only speak the lines associated with getting Blue items, while she would be much nicer if you get a Legendary item: she should say stuff like "Have fun with your paperweight" when you get a Blue item while she should congratulate you on getting a Legendary
  
• Travis Day Quadboxes Crusaders, sometimes while watching TV and playing Hearthstone at the same time
  
• The Theorycraft Thursday tends to not feature the current high Torment builds because they're already well known
  
• New Theorycraft Thursday streams will be conducted every 6 weeks or so

Also RIP for people hoping for the nerf to it.
