I thought FoS's abbot post was hilar (and still do). Don't find FoS's loot hilar, however, since that's something that's actually real.

See avatar.

Heartseeker - 20 d6/d8/d10 Maiming. On lootgen. And not even the good lootgen. Stock green.

Like maiming, except 20d6 on a x2, 20d8 on a x3, and 20d10 on a x4.

Woop, ninja

The damage isn't untyped like maiming. So, maybe DR? Or something?

This is true and the rest of your post is insightful but the bugs and long standing issues are a part of the overall problem and customer dissatisfaction for me at least.   There are so many things that we just ignore now as Turbinisms.  These things start to stack up and really detract from game play.  A list of simple fundamental things (so called quality of life issues) that have been broken so long or half finished they are almost features...

1) UMD/Item Equip Lag
2) Broken Agro Tables (Intimidate/Bluff/Deception: using multiple effects screws up the agro table still.)
3) Double Damage/Purple Damage not always applying not applying on some effects. 
4) Casting targeting issues/range issues
5) MoB's moving when stunned, held, etc
6) Stupid AI
7) Useless PRE's and Destiny Effects - What good is a higher spell level when no spell dice go that high
8) Poor elemental spell variety
9) Half finished mechanics and systems throughout the game
10) Hit box issues with Melee effects (trip, stun, etc)
11) Quicken still has issues since spell pass
12) 75% of the spells in the game are useless
13) Inconsistent XP vs Challenge ratio across quests lines (Why does Bastion give less XP than Running with the Devils?)

...we could probably add another dozen to the list.

Pretty much sums up the underlying issue with most of the list. They seem incapable of recognizing that while it might be acceptable to release and patch, you don't release, then release more, then still more, then patch when you feel like it. It just feeds into the 'why bother with x system then' mentality.

I had to get the overpriced store option because without it, I would have had to dump tons of gear when I transferred- for the bank and inventory.  It still makes me mad.
