I like how they said they also intended to lower the lower level of NM dungeons but that part didn't make it into the patch. Like their hands were completely tied.

"Hey we removed the seat belts from your car, but don't worry we should have airbags ready in the next couple months."

Because they know their playerbase will ultimately muster no real consequences for such a fuck-off patch, tailor made to encourage one to buy the pass.
