I don't understand the logic behind these changes...really...
but now I am sure of one thing. I'm going to get another Treagle from my pack and still longing to get the Norriscane

You don't understand. People SHOULD be punished for reaching the item cap via not helping their team in any fashion whatsoever by being stingy with consumables. A good team player uses up all or most of their consumables in a match in order to expedite things. These changes discourage that, and therefore encourage bad behavior.
Well, I am buying only Premium Equipment Packs these days, because I have maxed every weapon I like (I don't want to get mad at the store system for giving me endless character cards, while hoping to get an Ultra Rare).
Maybe I am the only one doing this, but I do not dislike that fix at all.

Just tested out the Eagle on various configurations and it's still awful. Compares even worse to the Hurricane than it used to, also.

The buffed the Hurrican again? well, Ok.
If they buff it every week like this the Eagle should be useable by September.
I don't like making respec's uncommon either, as that makes them harder to get. What they should do is have respec cards take priority over redundant charachter cards.
What does the Geth Buffs do anyway? I'm pretty sure there are more 4 hunters on wave 6. Maybe then meant Bronze? Those numbers don't seem to match my experiences on Gold.

Three Primes on Wave 10; congrats Bioware you hit the stunlock trifecta! How about you remove the cheap stunlock mechanics from the Geth Primes and Hunters before trying to 'balanace' the faction? Also, let's get rid of the rocket troopers double shot and being able to fire the moment they spawn. Seriously, you are trying to 'balance' the Geth right?
As for the Eagle and Hurricane changes, I'm with the rest of the community on this. Any word on when we will be getting a single multiplayer bug fix? It's only been 10 weeks since release.

Uh .. Indra ? all others are N7 (i mean promotional N7, not ultra rare), didn't you mean Valiant ? (didn't check the stats to ensure).

I just noticed that the damage they give for the eagle doesn't match up with the spreadsheet damage. weird. Did it get a larger buff than it seems like it got, or are the numbers just wrong?

I have no idea what's up with that, but I just tested the Eagle and initial impressions are that it's still bad. Real bad.

It would still have been bad even if it had the damage the update says it has.... Hopefully they'll buff it everyweek for the next 4 weeks like the hurricane. Then it'd be the best pistol ever.GodlessPaladin wrote...

Still not keen on character cards, but really happy about getting more equipment instead of thermal clip packs. And the Indra is worth a second look now.

I see it still has huge clip and it does about the same dps as other heavy pistols now. I don't have one, but I guess the gun would become better with accuracy buffs instead of further damage buffs. N7 weapons aren't meant to be better than something like ultra-rares, as far a I know.GodlessPaladin wrote...

The clip isn't really that big and it still does less damage than a maxed predator (at least until you get it to level 6 or so... which would take an eternity) It also has the worst accuracy of any pistol (unless you count the talon) and it has pretty terrible recoil... all this adds up to it still being worse than the PREDATOR which is the STARTING pistol.

Oh cool! The Hurricane got a buff it didn't need and the Eagle and Indra are still horrifyingly, insultingly terrible weapons that are supposed to represent very rare rewards.
I wonder; did anyone expect anything different, though? Every week, it's the same thing. The community screams and yells and floods the forums with threads on how hair-pullingly terrible X or Y is, and in the next "balancing", BW buffs X & Y...by useless amounts that change nothing.
The Eagle is a special case, though. It's incredibly rare, only available through events, and it's supposed to be a reward. A reward. It's possibly the worst weapon in the entire game, and it's given as a reward - in the place of several other weapons that are among the best in the game.
And BW examines this situation and says; 7 extra damage per bullet should fix that!
I really hate how jaded I've become with this whole damn fiasco. It wasn't all that long ago I was defending BW to people making posts like these, and now here I am, because problems are never solved and nothing ever changes.
