If you don't have numbers 'kick increased' or 'dispersion decreased' would still be great. All there is in the dev blog is 'Almost all the Rifles received a tweak with regard to Handling and Accuracy, making them more balanced', which is vague to say the least...

I wish I could but they're really weird numbers. They're nearly as bad as the zoom numbers you see for sniper rifles. We don't need the numbers themselves. Just things like 'kick increased' (without disclosing the exact magnitude) would be really helpful. Also, I believe some (non-sniper) rifles, like the Breach AR, ScR, and TAR, had damage and RoF changes, so it would useful to have those in one place.

And by the way, awesome of you to do this IWS. Thanks man. Added these sounded exactly like what he had planned with the cpm. Based on the above Rattati comments and some others I predicted the following: AR - tiny hipfire kick reduction - OVERALL SMALL BUFF BrAR - 14% dam buff, zoom dispersion reduction - OVERALL LARGE BUFF BuAR - 2% dam buff, tiny hipfire kick reduction - OVERALL MEDIUM BUFF Tac AR - RoF buff, hipfire kick reduction, hipfire dispersion decrease - OVERALL MEDIUM BUFF (large buff for turbo users) CR - damage profile nerf - OVERALL MEDIUM NERF ACR - 4% dam buff, dispersion increase, damage profile nerf - OVERALL MEDIUM NERF RR - hipfire kick increase - OVERALL MEDIUM NERF ARR - NO CHANGE ScR - RoF nerf, tiny hipfire kick increase - OVERALL SMALL NERF (medium nerf for turbo users) AScR - NO CHANGE Would be nice to know how much of this did actually happen...

As intended. Minlogi HP scaled correctly relative to other logis, other min suits did not relative to their non-min counterparts so were buffed.
