Few things:

1) No other characters were affected by this.
2) I'm talking to some designers about this, his health did decrease some, but his attack and potency should be increased. I'm getting some more detailed numbers for all of you, will share once they're ready in the next hour or so.
3) I am not trying to leave things out of update notes. It takes a bit of work to get all of these together, and I do my best to cover everything, but sometimes there are very last minute changes that get put into an update. I'm sorry this was one wasn't in the notes, I'll try to get changes like this one included in the future.

Thank you for the apology. That means a lot to me. You're man enough to own up to your (plural (the whole team)) mistakes. Kudos.

Although this doesn't change anything for the better it's nice to hear you say it.

@EA_Jesse How are you going to address the barrier this change has created between players who were gear 9 with him prior to this (and can now get gear 10) and those who were still in the process of upgrading him and will be stuck at gear 8? Doesn't seem very fair.

He said it is only until the level cap is raised which is totally wrong but whatever. Good thing I only wanted greedo to have the gear for GW.

And the massive 280 purple material barrier just dumped right in front of us?

OMG!

This is the biggest crapdrop yet. Maybe im bias because i was actively working on greedos gear 8, now his 8 requires all the fears his 8 and 9 needed, and thats just his 8 now. FUK!

Should've geared him when you had the chance. It's Greedo, nobody levels him and nobody invests gear into him. He's rarely used because he's weak. Stop with the self-entitled whining.

No need to be hostile. I'd be angry too if I were farming him.

Yeah the amount of went up is outrageous. They probably read a post I made saying how easy he was to gear.

The real issue isn't that his gear/requirements changed. It is that yet again there were stealth changes. We were assured that the internal processes of writing patch notes would be fixed and yet again, they got it wrong.

I wish I could be wrong that many times in a row and still manage to draw a paycheck. (Not a call out against Jesse, but those supplying the notes)

In this situation it was either take away gear from those who already farmed for it to get Greedo to 9, or take the action we did. Once the level cap is introduced in the future everyone will be able to get Greedo to the same gear level.

And again, no changes were made to any other characters regarding gear. I checked with our designers on this and was told only Greedo was affected.

Hopefully that level cap increase isn't too soon. ;)

But why nerf my boy greed greeds health? He was a baller and just like how he played ball he couldn't shoot for Jack. But when he picked up my girl he sure as heck shot first if you know what I'm saying.
