With perks that increase rate of fire (desperado, now cranial spike) I'm getting pretty tired of the faster rate of fire also reducing damage.
Don't get me wrong, I get it, I understand why it's a thing.. but I would much, MUCH rather take a lesser rate of fire increase WITHOUT losing any damage.
I understand the overall dps may go up in some cases as the system is right now, but it's just very.. annoying seeing "ah, rate of fire with cranial spike will increase! ....with a 20% damage reduction to compensate". That takes all the wind out of my proverbial sail.

That's the basic rule of thumb honestly anywhere. If it's slow it'll hit like a truck. If it's fast as fudge it'll hit like a wet wipe. Some guns on here though are balanced inbetween.
