Casius Hakoke Fenrir's Wolves 77	Posted - 2013.04.26 01:02:00 - [1] - Quote I have been looking at the crystal ball, aka sisi, and I noticed a small change that I haven't seen anybody mention. Weaponry Skill Notably, the skill is now missing the 2% per level bonus to infantry weapons. Now the only thing I can think of is that this is a 10% across the board nerf to infantry damage potential unless the weapons damage has been adjusted upwards accordingly. If this has been talked about already, I'm sorry didn't notice it. But if not, what do people think about this?

Casius Hakoke Fenrir's Wolves 77	Posted - 2013.04.26 01:06:00 - [4] - Quote As a tanker, I approve of it myself. To me it means AV is a little weaker and a small buff to HAV's if infantry weapons haven't been adjusted accordingly.

I don't personally like skills that all they do is unlock new stuff, they should have an effect on some stuff, even if just reduced fitting costs of damage mods or infantry weapons. Something, but it is an interesting change none the less.

Edit: Wait... so what unlocks damage modules now? Don't those fall under the weaponry skill?
Casius Hakoke Fenrir's Wolves 77	Posted - 2013.04.26 01:18:00 - [9] - Quote It probably still unlocks damage mods, just can't tell from sisi.

Could be, I couldn't tell you one way or the other. But with the lack of other information the simplest explanation makes the most sense. Having said that, yours might be simpler than mine as it does make a lot of sense and would also further help force specialization.

Peace B What are you talking about? He's saying Militia gear won't take out proto gear as easily now, which is true, but it's also true that proto gear will now take a little longer to take everything else out. I'd say it all evens out.

But sounds good, militia gear should have a very difficult time taking out proto gear unless the militia gear wearing person knows what he's doing and the proto one does not.
Cosgar The Unholy Legion Of DarkStar DARKSTAR ARMY 119	Posted - 2013.04.26 01:44:00 - [16] - Quote Yeah, can't wait for the CoDex build to be done.

If its a different skill its probably called something like "weapon upgrade handling" or something silly like that.

Casius Hakoke Fenrir's Wolves 80	Posted - 2013.04.26 12:55:00 - [22] - Quote Just bumping to see if there are any different opinions from last night on now.
Justin Tymes Condotta Rouvenor Gallente Federation 32	Posted - 2013.04.26 13:29:00 - [23] - Quote Logibros get a slight buff? Honestly I hate skill that do nothing but unlock, but at least this cuts the damage somewhat.
Sloth9230 Reaper Galactic 984	Posted - 2013.04.26 18:11:00 - [24] - Quote I just noticed the "handheld weapon upgrades" skill in the keynotes video, I'm guessing that's where Damage mods and the passive bonus are going.
Knarf Black Subdreddit Test Alliance Please Ignore 608	Posted - 2013.04.26 19:13:00 - [25] - Quote It almost seems like they're trying to nerf passive, core skills in general. I'm not a fan, but I guess I can see the logic behind it. CCP probably doesn't want militia super-soldiers with maxed core skills running around pubstomping newberries. RIP BPO Bandit

Nobody is going to go for that. Well done, CCP. You listen, but to a select few.
