4.3? Come on, man. You're joking right? This is a joke. It has to be! Otherwise I'd be giving you money in exchange for nothing.

Honestly, the only thing keeping me (and my money) here is that I raid with a couple different guilds and have a lot of fun with them. It's certainly not Bioware's raid tempo.

4.3 is really an unacceptably long time to fix this. If it's going to take months to fix, the impacted raids should be closed and removed from the Weekly Highlighted Hardmode rotation.

To echo others (in a calmer manner, I hope), I don't think it's viable to wait that long. I'm unsure whether my raid-heavy guild (~5 nights a week) would survive this many raids not working right.

Is the dev team wanting everyone to stop raiding and to unsub? Because this is yet another dagger to drive the raiding community away. As a member of a guild with x5 Raid Teams, each running 3+ days a week, waiting until April for a resolution is unacceptable for a subscribing user.

How is it that a patch that had no notes in relation to operations has broken operations; and with that said, how can the team not determine the cause and resolve it by a patch this week? This is affecting ALL modes of operations/Flashpoints, so it's affecting a larger player base than just the long time subscribers doing NiM/HM content.


I have stomach'd the fact that I ahve to wait for new operations content, NiM progression not being acknowledged with gear, non raiders getting Rancor in a non-NiM raid... but this... this is appalling customer service and I am finally drinking everyone else's kool-aid and pondering un-subbing.

4.0 launched on 10/20/2015.

111 days later, 4.1 launched on 2/8/2016.

Have fun getting this fixed in 4.3 LOL. Will this mythical 4.3 patch come in 2017 or 2018? Just want to set my expectations. Will this also include the start of Ranked Arenas Season 7 in 2018?

Um... what? Seriously, you guys are going to let this crap linger on for another two months? The Brontes stuff aside, which you can easily deal with by trusting tanks to hold threat... the HM Revan encounter with the broken area of effect for HK's Pseudorandom Violence makes that phase unnecessarily harder than it was. Now, you can't move when you're standing in the crap, you can only move if you notice your health dropping.

This is just absolutely terrible. Utter garbage, the devs should be ashamed of themselves. You say you haven't forgotten us veterans who like to raid and then you pull something like this?

I feel bad for you Eric, being put in this position by the terrible decision making of whoever is in charge over there. Thanks for at least letting us know...

Not that it's ok for them to leave such a huge bug in, but my guildies and I were able to verify that even though the animations are completely wrong, internally the game has them facing the correct location. Example: 2nd hand and finger phase on Bronte in SM, the hands will both telegraph their cleave to the middle and slam in that direction, but only the tank, who's correctly standing on the outside will get knocked back and take damage. Same with Brontes in the add phase as she'll face almost 90 degrees away from where she's actually facing if you tank her in the right spot. So it's possible to ignore the animations if you know the fight well enough. Again, not an excuse for Bioware to wait months to fix it, but in the meantime may help anyone trying to run the glitched content.
