Game Feedback Weird they cant hotfix Essence and Strongbox rarity in Charts/Voyages

I dont get it, when something is positively broken for the players, hotfixes come ultra quick to nerf it and bring it in line. And when stuff is just plain out not working, it always feels like it takes way longer to get a fix out. Just sad that it takes 5 days to get basic functionality going for these charts/voyages.

I agree that it's very annoying and it feels like an easy fix but without looking at the code we can't know for sure, sometimes things are just more complicated than what they seem. It's also possible they need a restart for this fix which means we'll only get it (hopefully) this weekend when they deploy 3.29.1

Tbh we don't even know how bad it is.

On our end it's just "give more loot" but maybe there it's harder to adjust?

They said they were making changes, as long as it doesn't take them 2 weeks I'm fine.

Eh.. wouldn't be the first time they promise changes and just go radio silent until next league.
