I've had zero issues with the weapon patch other than changing my play style. Kills were just given to me before if I used TLW or Thorn, and they did not require much thought except if the other person died within the 8 bullets you get to spam. Also that random 111 damage precision hit was very....gimmicky to say the least when you 2 shot someone from across the map. Pulse rifles require some aiming, and even the recoil coupled with aim flinching can throw even the sweatiest Messenger off their game. Using Mida for dueling at long ranges is perfect, but shotguns are still the go to weapon of choice at close range, unfortunately.

Shotguns are still way to powerful I agree. Rangefinder lost its ability to snipe but SP is practically unchanged. Fusion rifles are actually really good when used the right way. I have gotten melted a few times by Light of the Abyss and my Plug One had been doing some work. TLW is only good when hip fired, if not the accuracy is beyond horrendous. Autos are good where they are at. I wouldn't be opposed to a slight range increase though. At this point it is hard to kill a blink shotgunner before he gets in range because your damage is usually already starting to fall off.

All legendary HCs don't compete at all and pulses two shot still. Yeah, balanced.

Thorn still 3 shots

Fusion rifles are actually pretty decent now in my opinion. Been using then a bit and having a lot of fun

Please remove this comment.. Pretty please
