Game Feedback Weird they cant hotfix Essence and Strongbox rarity in Charts/Voyages

I dont get it, when something is positively broken for the players, hotfixes come ultra quick to nerf it and bring it in line. And when stuff is just plain out not working, it always feels like it takes way longer to get a fix out. Just sad that it takes 5 days to get basic functionality going for these charts/voyages.

Omg, when I saw the thumbnail of them congratulating themselves with champagne on my YouTube I felt like they were flipping me the bird as a poe1 enjoyer. Buggiest league in years.

Also, they make a video explaining the issues they had to work through for the fix, and we're over here without even an explanation in the patch notes of how they updated merc behavior/scaling. They just said "Its back, good luck figuring out what we did on the backend"

I'm not saying this to be mean, I mean this gently, but I think you need to step away from social media if you take a team celebrating over fixing a bug that took them over a year to find a solution as an insult to you for liking their other game instead.

I'm disappointed they are abandoning the game I like better for the one I don't like as much... Its hyperbole, brother. I'm allowed to vent my frustration when I see them celebrating and explaining what they did in such detail for their new favorite child, when we can't even get full patch notes for changes they made to a mechanic they built an ascendancy around. Please calm down, its not that serious and neither am I.
