Hard cap lasted 2 months and 2 weeks. I am talking about my Hunter which dinged late november 2016, after they fixed that hard cap. I would love to see proof of your claims btw where blizzard made several post during the first(half year you mean?) I had all legendaries for the spec in 4 months. I think I got my first survival one in march or early april. Of course, some leggos dropped for all specs so some were useful for the others already.
But go on, don't let fact go in the way for your narrative. Weird really, since the acquisition for corruption is billion times better, why so defensive?
Don't worry, I found the link myself. Not really what you claimed, but that wasn't so surprising. The issue were that the BLP stopped working after 4 leggos because blizzard thought 4 would be enough at that time. But they changed that. They even said they increased the chance for it to drop in 7.1. Humm, just what I have been saying all along, removing soft cap after 2 months and 2 weeks(I said 2 months and 1 week earlier, my bad!) and increased the chance around that time(7.1). Half a year is into Nighthold progression. This post was actually posted when my hunter dinged 110! Or around that. You were right about the 100s of millions that had gotten 4, but that's also it. Saying it was said 6 months later is just bullshit as it was adressed in late November that they had done this a week ago, middle of November.

Now stop accusing people for lying and actually argue and don't come with exaggerations and low ball insult. Billion times better!
