Caydiem's back!

Alright, enough with my pessimistic rant from yesterday. Cay's got some more info, here she explains the reason why the Critadin was, in a sense, removed:

...Many are lamenting the perceived loss of the infamous "critadin" build. The crit-focused Paladin was making the best out of what was given to him, and I understand that it's difficult to adjust. The developers wanted to bring the line more controlled DPS rather than relying on chance and having the damage numbers wildly across the board. It's true you may not see those huge, incredibly-gratifying numbers much anymore, but your DPS will be more reliable and predictable, allowing you to perform better on the whole. Give it a chance.

Then Virgilsainti immediately asks, "What about the 31 Point Talents? Many have been concerned over the adjusting or complete removal of the current ones since 1.9 was mentioned." and she responds:

That's covered more in the writeup going through editing.

Excellent, I guess we'll get to hear the reason to why not a single of the 11-21-31 talent points were removed/drastically changed.

And here she explains what's left of the developer response. (in other words, Soon™)
