I have to go check out the new Earth Shaker animation, myself. Yeah, and above and beyond the patch notes it looks like the update is pretty well received.

If nothing else, it puts me in a position to be able to provide constructive feedback post-patch. If I'm left guessing why this was buffed, that was nerfed, and the other was changed from a maintained area-of-effect party buff to a single target attack it's really hard to see whether the changes are having the intended gameplay effect.

I'm hard pressed to imagine any other studio starting a post with anything like "Shadow Form was grossly overpowered..", a strong, honest statement. Just imagine Mythic saying something similar about the Bright Wizard and Sorc mechanic. Yeah. Beyond that initial statement, the whole post is detailed, organized, and well-reasoned. I can't wait to see what changes may be in store. I had better advance my Necromancer post haste (with some of the welcome blood magic changes) so I can see the changes happen.
