Fixed a bug where Quality on Sceptres multiplied the amount of Spirit they granted instead of granting Quality to their inherent Skill.

Just in case anyone else missed this, huuuuuge scepter nerf on top of everything else, holy crap.

That...that isn't a bug Mr. Patch Note Guy, Jonathan literally acknowledged that function as intended during the Q&A like it was completely normal. That's just a raw nerf, man.

Now, as a certain Wilson has experienced already (over 40 buffed skills pain), I’m pretty sure Jonathan does not know exactly everything about the game and probably assumed it was intended when in actuality it was a bug.

Vice versa could be true however, just to clarify that it can be either intented or a bug.

Pre-Release:
Sr Dev: "Hey Jr Dev can you get X implemented? should be simple."
Jr Dev: "Sure"

Post Release :
Sr Dev: "Hmm, what is Y doing here?"
Jr Dev: "Didn't you ask for Y to be implemented?"
Sr Dev: "Oh, I meant for it to be X."
Jr Dev: "Oh mb I'll get it fixed."

Even in my relatively easy job this happens way more often than you'd hope...
