Broken / Nerfed Velious Items & Early Access: Eating Classic Cake & Having it too
 

One silver lining to the recent 7 day early access brouhaha is that it presents a perfect opportunity to advance the timeline on the broken & nerfed items of Velious so that day 1 of raiding (day 8 of launch) will still be balanced while sticking to a classic timeline by allowing those items to exist in their original form for at least a small amount of time.

Donal's, Chestplate of Stability, and Wavecrasher: Not classic to nerf them at launch? Don't. Just fix them 7 days later.
