It's one thing to be challenging.
It's another to make something such a pain in the rear that you need to replan your team to have a certain AT setup just to beat it. Again, look at LRSF. Level 50 SF, good maps, but it's rarely even run except maybe for pre-setup farm teams.
And now he's intentionally down the same to one of the most popular TF's in the game?
What's next on his list to do, find a good way to screw up ITF?

Post from Castle, removing this change (though he might test it at some point in the future). Though it sounds like people were able to complete it without holding the green mitos anyway, just an fyi.

Apparently he posted again saying he actually made it 10.
Forethought. It's not just for psychics.

Still don't really see the need to even give them that much (or any protection at all). Going to make, say, all melee groups hating life.

I might be missing the 19th game as well. Flying down that Wednesday to Lexington, KY, for an interview on Thursday. Not sure when the flight is yet.

Actually, he reverted the changes to Clear Mind because there currently wasn't a way to make reapplying CM-like powers drop the protection for a split second. (ie: I have 45s left on CM and I have 1 hold on me. If the emp refreshes is, the current one will be removed, I'll be held, then the new CM will be applied. That split second hold is enough to drop offensive toggles.) That's why CM still self stacks, not because of Ghost Widow.|

(I've tanked her plenty of times without any CM; it's a nice safety blanket, but not a necessity.)
Oh. Well, nevermind. That's one decision I'll still disagree with him over, then. Trust Sarrate to remember, though.

205723: A Different DESTINY
When Soldiers of Arachnos got their names added to the Destiny List, Longbow managed to get a copy of the list and began rounding villains up. But one name on the list shocked them...
Personally, I don't quite see why the change was needed. The encounter was tricky enough (not THAT tricky, but you couldn't sleepwalk through it, like some other TFs). It's also a unique encounter you don't get in any other TF... making the encounter more of a pain in the rear is not a good idea.
He also backpedaled from changes to Clear Mind when people pointed out how ridiculous that was going to make Ghost Widow in the STF. I think he sometimes gets challenges in his head that sound good (and kind of are, from the right perspective), but really aren't when you look at the game and players as a whole.
Thankfully, he doesn't do that often. At least he's willing to think in different ways and take player's thoughts into account.
