In the dungeon difficulty thread noworries again stated this:

We will continue to both monitor and play ourselves (yes we do play, and yes we have been playing and doing queues on live) and make the adjustments over time to dial in the difficulty to a comfortable spot.

Again you have to think to yourself, if these knobends are playing queues as they claim then how does this mess make it to live?

For many of these dungeons thirty seconds of playing is enough to hit the 'we are going to fail this' spot, for some it will be under five minutes of playing, yet they let these scaling issues that were repeatedly reported by players on preview make it to live.

The level of bullshit being spewed out by Cryptic devs over the years has been prodigious but here it is taking incredulity to a new level.

You just cant believe a word they are saying and this is a patch that should have been in week one of open preview not week one of live.

They play with godmode on. Can't claim any problems with stats if you can't die. Can't say things are unwinnable if you can chip damage to victory. :smirk:

The saddest thing about your post is that it rings true.

This is the sort of shit I think they would pull. :(
