Patch naming convention

Consecutive patches to fix an update would be 13.1 and 13.2, correct?

How do they name patches to fix the patches? 13.1a?

It would probably be classified as a hotfix.  Do we get external versioning numbers for those?

Otherwise, it'd just be rolled into the next patch number.

They don't label hotfixes, just "a hotfix".

Personally, I would do something like 13.1.a or 13.1.1.
But yeah, we don't get labels for hotfixes :X

Fixed, there's still a few good things in it.
It's just that by fixing the perma buff problem they created a bag bug problem.

It depends on your definition of buff.

I was permapumpkinheaded and permakobolded which made for fun questing even if it had no game impact (although I swear the kobolds were more repectful to me n the challenges).

Those retarded displays are not buffs.  All they do is alter the display of your character.  See how I am breaking it down to stupid level for you? You also had perma wraith form - without the benefits, lich, zombie, vamp and every other MOTHERFUCKING DISPLAY THAT HAD A TIMER.

Just to smartass the smartass: there was a bug related to the forgebuff which made the effect last 'til logout, that's not only the visual Cheesy

While I partially agree that it was just a visual effect I did find it interesting how the power of the forge gave an until logout water walk  ability.

The shadow walk display was a nice buff in Rainbow in the Dark. Darkvision FTW!

As far as patch naming goes, they did a good job with u13, 'Web of Chaos' fits nicely.
