DE, why do you want to make AkVasto worse than they are now?

Raising them makes the game more streamlined and less overwhelming for new players by 

1. limiting options (while still giving enough options for a personal playstyle)

2. showing New players, which weapons are good by giving better weapons a higher MR requirement.

3. making MR more relevant as player progression.

I agree with this but more should be done on deciding the effectiveness of that weapon in relation to Mr rank it will reside  and I'm seeing a hole here that they're just increasing maybe the ranks to fill the very lacking roster of weapons in higher MR.. There isn't even any weapons on the 15 up MR if I'm not mistaken. They're just band-aid fixing some problems of no weapon to chase towards in later MR.

I am not sure about the Boltor prime.

It was pure dmg weapon..which had it uses and flavor.Now its a possile crit weapon. Which is weaker if you dont use crit mods.

Guess it also can be status weapon now..

Ayeeee buffing my Despair! The Daikyu change sounds interesting. Its a personal favorite so I hope it performs better now.

[Kikogodeca]

Nooooo, please don't touch the Pandero. I dunno if the dmg increase will compensate the other slight nerfs, but it's like, my favorite secondary! Pls, no nerf!!!!!!!!

I thought I'd never see this in my life, I am [expletive] proud.

Also in regards to Cestra/Dual Cestra will the maximum ammo be increases as well? Having 120 rounds with 210 in reserve is really a bad idea with increased spool time. :)

@[DE]Rebecca I'm really glad to see these changes in the works. I've been waiting for something like this for awhile. While there will always be top tier weapons in the game, it's nice to see some of the older weapons more useable than they currently are. It gives players, even new ones, something to look forward to getting their hands on. Don't need our veteran players discouraging newbies to not keep a weapon because it's dubbed "Mastery fodder" by the community because the weapon simply can't keep up with other choices we have. This is especially true for weapons that need other weapons in the crafting requirements. I remember when Panthera was significantly worse than the weapon needed to craft it, Miter, but you guys fixed that awhile ago. Something to keep in mind. No one wants to craft a few weapons to build a weapon that isn't as good.

PS: I was kind of hoping more of a buff for Despair's crit chance and crit damage to keep it in line with it's brothers Dread & Hate. I know we have Primed Pistol Gambit and Primed Target Cracker though. Maybe you took this in consideration for the stat buffs?

Latron Prime

Critical chance increased from 15% to 22%

Oh wow. Now my rivens going to be op.

[wiredframed]

no melee i see.

sucks i sold my karak riven for endo.

nice to see zenith and azima buff. got rivens for those 2. 

nice to see many of these like despair, dera vandal, burston prime and boltor.

i wonder how these will affect riven dispositions.

not nice to see mr increases. i hated lvling up weapons i disliked just for mr to use a wep i wanted to use.

i already have to lvl up weapons multiple times with forma.

luckily i am past the crappy grind. 

i suggest increasing karak wraith max ammo or mag size.

[tverik]

Gammacor buff and beam weapons buff when? :(

[Ordo_Hereticus]

Detron's new status chance is 32... Oh baby. 

[omegasenior]

So Stug will be in a dark corner forever now?

[(PSN)BlackGuyver82]

Synoid simulor and synoid gammacor needs a buff also.  They were both nerfed into the ground its time that they be brought back up to the level of other weapons.

ดีดีดี

[zackharius]

Pyrana?

[paul5473]

Thank you for the tiberon love finally! I can use my riven :)

[SnowNeitrino]

How about to increase the clip for Pandero and all Latron's?

P.S. 11-12 for Pandero, 20-25 for Latron's?

[TotallyLagging]

I have a massive goddamn boner and it's in the shape of a plasma machine gun

 

Ohhh my god can't wait to see the beam weapon change

[iceyShardZ]

fire rate can be used to MULTIPLY the damage of these weapons,and any beam weapon that is even close to being status friendly would be ruined if you lower the fire rate or make it fixed,

the ONLY thing you guys should do is make the status per second into regular status chance and double the tick rate of these weapons,

that is such an easy fix and it would be so much better than just upping the damage and locking the fire rate!

[amirknighy]

ty de :D

[Paulvulturul]

DE, the changes are great, especially to the gorgons, but please don't change the crafting recipes to include POE items, not anyone can access it because of lag, bad PC's crashes etc.if you really want to change them, just increase the costs, pls.

We haven't even seen ANYTHING regarding beam weapon buffs. Let's wait and see. So far, DE has done a great job :]
