Subject: RE: New Lullaby theory


I regretfully tell you that I was a couple of levels below level 15 when the
patch that nerfed Lullaby went in, so I've never seen what it could do
pre-nerf. My experience with lullaby even at level 15 was that "it's a
great taunt song". I've never been able to reliably crowd control to this
date. I guess when I get charm in four more levels I'll be able to control
a crowd of three, but if pixie strike is as bugged as Lullaby I guess that
will be the best I will ever do.

This make the most sense of all the theories I've heard so far... As a
programmer - I am often surprised when a user tells me of a "new bug" in
code that I know I haven't touched since the application was installed many
months before. My gut reaction is that the user is making a mistake not me.

What often is the case - is the data changed - or the users started using a
seemingly unrelated feature of the application where the interaction exposed
the bug that never was exposed before.

I can see GZ and company chuckling to themselves; they know they haven't
touched that code - why would it not work?

Lullaby sure worked great for me back when I was a in my teens and lower
twenties - so I assumed the change was from a patch; not the simple fact
that I'm level 36...
