Personally I wasn't too fussed about TTK, but if damage mods made a difference to it, then clearly they were worth using.
So I think it's perfectly viable to complain about both.

Worth using to the point that the only viable fit was to stack damage mods and run with armor plates? Yeah, that's healthy for diversity of fits and tactics.

if damage mods were +10% damage but -10% range would they have been as viable? Would they have been useless?

like wise if you had a module that did +10% range but -10% damage would you find a use for it.

if the answer to any or all of those questions were maybe or with some weapons then they would of been operating properly, giving different fit different advnatage allowing players to play to their weapons strengths.

The idea of increasing damage output at the cost of reduced range is anathema to sniping--no, sir, I don't like it!

Kigurosaka Laaksonen DUST University Ivy League 561	Posted - 2014.03.10 17:40:00 - [11] - Quote I would like to see this implemented as a weapon rigging system (analogous to EVE's jury rigging of space ships.) Weapons would have a number of rig slots, rigs would use up their own unique fitting resource called Calibration. The rig would be attached directly to the weapon and, just like in EVE, be lost when you died and lost the weapon, or be destroyed if you wanted to take it off to replace it. The rigs themselves would be to the benefit of attributes as you mentioned, among others. The only difficulty I see is figuring out what's what in your inventory screen and fitting window.

Yeah I've always felt that the weapon variants should be achieved this way. High slots for damage & ROF, lows for ammo & reload etc. A couple of "EQ" slots for scopes or for switching the weapon to full auto/single fire. You could even have CPU & PG modules that turn the weapon "specialist". No.

The old damage mods were useful, no doubt there. But I'm trying to increase diversity, not stifle it. Plus TTK was about overall weapon damage, not just the modules. It's entirely possible that someone complaining about TTK blamed it on the base weapon stats, in which case a damage mod nerf could be challenged too. No.

This nerf is actually making me consider sticking extenders on my Amarr sentinel in 1.8. And that ain't right. Sensibly spoken, kind sir. And there's no reason we couldn't have weapon "mods" that affect damage output, a la ammo types in EVE. Also, is it just me, or is it totally senseless that improving my skill at operating a weapon somehow changes the volume of space my dropsuit has to carry extra ammo....? My other dropsuit is a Python.
