Nerf

to lower the strength, experience, or any attribute of a certain character in any MMORPG via patching.

The word originated from Star Wars Galaxies (Sony online entertainment, Lucas Arts). By Ryan Nero and Rob Preusse. As a joke they invented several words in game and were curios to see if they stuck.
"They totally nerfed the XP in groups...", "My mage got soooo nerfed on the last patch!"
