Buffs to both Marksman and Hurricane. Wish I had a Turian Soldier unlocked. ;)

OMG Proximity Mine got even more awesome. Need to test it now... 4.5meter radius now with radius evolution. This is gonna be sick.

They just buffed one of the best abilities in the game, which is used on two of the best classes in the game (Salarian and Geth Infiltrators), and they buffed it more significantly than they buffed, say, the Incisor...

I mean, I can't see anyone who actually knows the game actually thinking Proximity Mine was weak, and they just gave it a very nice buff.  What's up with that?

Nice changes overall.

I'm going to have to check out my new and improved Hurricane.

An Eviscerator buff, but no buff for the Wraith? That doesn't make any sense to me. The Eviscerator is now better than the Wraith, especial at rank X versus rank I or II.

Most of the changes look decent though.

YES A HURRICANE BUFF IN DAMAGE AND RECOIL!

But where is my Wraith and Eagle buff?
Edit: The Incisor might actually be good now, but no recoil damp. The Scimitar X is great and the weight reduction will be good. The Prox. Mine buff might actually make it usable. The Human Soldier recieved a HUGE buff and the extra Singularity will be good.

What the heck is Bioware thinking?


I think most people, myself included, didn't use the power because the range on it was pitiful. Now that the range is better it will be useful.

I'm going to try the hurricane on my Turian soldier. All three of his abilities were buffed, too!

Meh, nice buffs I guess.

Not nearly many enough though. Not like these are actually gonna make much of a difference.

Hurricane still kicks like a mule on non-turians, but low flying planes are no longer in immediate danger.

Yeah, I'm actually a bit surprised about the Proximity Mine buff. I found it to be very powerful already as well. The radius increase is nice (and actually makes them more useful for what their name suggests), but I would've expected a damage decrease to coincide with that or something.

Nice that the Incisor got a much-needed damage buff, though. A lot of people have been calling for recoil reduction on it, but considering the nature of the rifle in general, I felt the idea of three powerful, high-recoil shots suited it better than three fairly weak shots that have accuracy comparable to a regular sniper rifle. I have it equipped on my Drell Vanguard currently, and I'll find out later whether I feel the buff was significant enough to be worth it. I suspect it probably still needs to be a little higher to compete with other rifles, though at least it hits harder than it did.



As for the Eviscerator buff, that's nice to see as well, but I'm definitely confused as to why the Wraith remained unchanged then. Still hoping that it gets some sort of accuracy or rate-of-fire increase soon to make it function at least a bit differently from its larger-clip cousin.

It was already easily one of the best powers, now it's even more amazing.

I agree. No need to buff proxy mines. It was already one of the best powers in the game.

The Geth Infiltrator was already God-like in the right hands. Now it's gonna be ridiculous.

Ridiculous because they added 1m radius to the explosion? Come on, stop overreacting.

Proximity Mine was good, but I'd hardly call it one of the best abilities in the game.  Though it might be now.

Ummm, an extra meter is a pretty sizable buff for the PM. If I'm reading it right, it means an extra 3 feet around impact can receive an extra 20% damage for 8 seconds.
