Ethers Need Nerf Now

[drMightyPotato]

I hope somebody here remembers the good old days where some people were very insistent (pre damage 2.0, pre-galatine, pre-soma, etcetc) that the Ether Swords were very, very, incredibly OP because 'omg 3x damage to light infested and armor ignore?!?!?!?!'.

Something tells me some people lack the common sense to deduce that having a high risk weapon, that forces you into melee range in a game that makes you play frame flipper,  needs to have a high reward.

Sure most melee weapons fail hard at the reward part but that doesn't mean that my first statement is false.

You are absolutely serious? Why are there so many cries of nerfs thrown left and right, especially for ether swords? This is not a pvp based game. From the start it is a PvE oriented game so no to your outrageous cry for nerf

Actually, given the low reward of Melee combat, I end up looking like mulch.  I miss when my D. Ethers cut things in half in one slice.  Like back in Mercury.

I still use DEs, take them to derelicts and even to T3, its my most used weapon, more kills than on Soma. But Ichors are likely to replace it, when I forma them.

Good thing he didn't get killed by a Lato...

[Kalenath]

YES! Nerf all PVE weapons so that they are all viable in PvP!

NOT!

Not a PvP centric game. Not a game where melee weapons are that viable currently.

I wonder what he would say if he got killed by a Braton MK-1 with NO mods.

NNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRFFFFFFFFF!
