Thank you Johan, that's a very good news. It's great to know that developers are dedicated to continuous balancing and enchancing their game long after the release, not to mention being so active and in touch in the players community. It is very rare sign these days.
I am very tempted to ask what else will be in the patch (especailly if there will be, by any chance, something about 2 other hot topics being discussed here and elsewhere - "mad castling" and "clam hoarding", in the next), but I guess I should better cultivate my patience and wait for it.
Anyway, thanks for sharing it with us Johan.

You might not want to hurray as much as you are. It's not a drastic change and the VQ is still virtually the same. Only in line with the appropriate cost to the Liches. There are other more significant changes that might make you hurray more that impact the same 'problem' with VQ's. Hmmm, sounds great Zen, thank you. But it is a little unfair to tease me so much without providing any details.
Still I only advocated very few issues on these Boards, and if some changes are being made in new patch to adress any of them, it would indeed make me "hurray" developers even more.
As for VQ - personally I think she is a great concept, and I wouldn't want her to be nerfed into oblivion. You are right, I'll have to wait and see how much these changes will affect her (personally I would prefer to see a substantial additonal magic pathes cost increase, rather that a "chassis" cost increase, since having a lot of magic pathes is an essential element of any "uber-VQ". Or making her more on the level with bog mummy stats/abilities-wise (without turning her in mummy#2 of course)). But in any case I am happy that developers are doing any steps to address VQ issue.
