Thank you for listening to our concerns, taking them seriously, doing something about it, and communicating it to us.
A lot of us just stopped playing actively since the patch, even with the addition of a new class. I am glad to know that the amount of daily challenge quests that need to be completed will be reduced, the return of ascension orb shards, and that some of the mechanics of the easy mode dungeons will be revisited for accuracy. It's highly confusing for a player to come to expect being able to clear and not wipe in a previous Normal Mode dungeon, and to introduce an "Easy Mode" where wiping is easily possible. It doesn't make it sound "Easy" as its implied.
