Subject: Blue, be honest. Do any devs have a 60 pally? |
| |
Of the developers who worked on this update, how many of them have a paladin who has reached the end-game phase?
The answer should be 100%. Judging by this update, I'm willing to wager that it is 0%.
I'd really like to hear if my guess is accurate, Caydiem. Can you shed light on if the devs are working in the dark?
P.S. Did you guys kill Fangtooth and take his magic items?
Twill pwnz.

Wait a moment here. Let's define what "60 Paladin" means to you.
Does someone on the class team have a level 60 Paladin on a live realm that they've levelled up and is now solidly in the end-game? Yes.
Do all of them have access to level 60 Paladins on internal realms to test the changes? Oh yes.
Has every single developer on the class team had the time to level up every single class legitimately in a year's time with working a more-than-full-time job? No.
It's dark.
You are likely to be eaten by a Grue.

I'll happily define "Class Team" for you, Shauk:
The Class Team is the team of designers that works on the abilities, spells, and overall balance of the classes in World of Warcraft.
I hope that's clearer.
I was not attempting to be "dodgy" in the slightest. You have no idea how many people have asked the selfsame question about their own class. I've answered with a simple "yes" in the past, and the responses I get tend to be along the lines of:
"They don't have a REAL level 60. It's (on a developer-only realm|artificially levelled for them)."
So yes, let me be clear on terminology: if I say that they have a level 60 on a live realm, they levelled it up themselves, achieved their gear and rank themselves, and had no artificial buff at all.
So I was clarifying before that started, as well as giving a mild cautionary note as to why not every developer would have a 60 of every class on live realms. :)[ post edited by Caydiem ]

Q u o t e:
Obviously every developer does not have a (legitimate) 60 Paladin. The question is, does ANY developer have a (legitimate) 60 Paladin?
I answered this in the first post: yes.
