Gameplay Derailment: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Diablo]]'': Most major patches have one or two... Buriza Do Kyanon, Hammeridins, etc... Amazons particularly have a flavour-of-the-month aspect to this.

** ''[[World of Warcraft]]'' has had classes doing roles they were never quite intended to. Prime examples of this are Rogues stacking Dodge and Agility so high they could evasion-style tank some of the final bosses in the second expansion and a Mage making use of Spellsteal, various talents and a pack of enemies with a stealable shield spell to solo several 25 player dungeon bosses: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_ggLGj37qI\]

** ''[[Final Fantasy XI]]'' has had both positive and negative examples of this, though [[Broken Base|which are which aren't always universally agreed upon]]. Primary among the positive ones would be the community turning the Ninja job into [[An Adventurer Is You|an outstanding Evasion Tank]]. Primary among the negative ones would be most single-job styles of "burn" party, especially arrowburn (rangers), the more abusive of which have been patched against. (Then there's meleeburn, but that's [[Internet Backdraft|a whole other debate]]...)
