This is likely one of the biggest beta tests of all time. Bungie thousands of players eager to help balance PvP, but fails to give us any data to work with.
I like to spend my time on excel making charts and theorizing what imperfect balance is. To do this, I need numbers. Everything that can possibly be measured from how much a skill boosts a trait to the fire rate and reload speed of a weapon; these sliding bars will never suffice.
Bungie, give the community your data and we will balance the game for you and show the community what they want but cannot explain. Don't forget that you aren't just testing with cookie cutter shooter vets, but also people who played hardcore spreadsheet war games like Eve and Guild Wars 2. Allow us to embed excel and word files, as well, so the community can understand what we speak of.

Plus it would help with future character builds.
