| Category: | Balance |
| Question: | that made you decide to do away with new Mattie Robes? I understand it was a balance issue, but wonder how you as the designers/overseers saw the problem. The same question applies to what happened to Shadow Armor as well. |

| Answer: | The hoary mattekar was an event monster. We knew from the before we even propped "Sudden Season" that they were only going to be around for a single month, its removal had nothing to do with balance. |
