Hi all

In the last months we've seen and experienced a lot of kills/deaths by high RoF weapons such as ARs and SCRs (plus others, maybe) in alarming ways, which has lead to the typical 'Nerf' discussion, but i think we could address this situation from a new (?) and different angle.

This is not the same game it was back in 1.3.
With the new TTK, do we really need damage modifiers?

A bit extra damage is always welcome, but why not just content with Proficiency skill for the weapons of your choice?

Shooting a damage-modded advanced or prototype weapon (PLUS proficiency) gives you a ridiculous advantage over others who have to shoot a lot longer to kill. You can shoot AND take damage while the other guy has to shoot more than you without the option to take any shots because he dies instantly.

Right now i see it as absurd as having shield/armor hardeners for dropsuits (don't even think about it!). Doesn't make sense, It's a feature that belongs to a past where gameplay was entirely different.



My suggestion: remove damage mods from the game. Keep proficiency skill bonus.

Now, your thoughts...
