Just to clarify a few things on the recent N7 Typhoon balance changes...
We've
done a lot of internal tests on the N7 Typhoon comparing it to other
assault rifles and other weapons, and even with the recent nerf it is
still incredibly powerful. One of the reasons for this is that the
weapon has an inherit 50% damage bonus versus armor, shields, and
barriers. This far outclasses other weapons in terms of damage bonuses
against resistances. The Revenant, for example, does not get this bonus
and does regular damage to armor, shields, and barriers.
As
always, we'll keep an eye on the balance of the N7 Typhoon, but if you
have the weapon please test it out in game against different enemies to
see how it feels. The numbers can often be deceiving so it's difficult
to tell how effective a weapon is on paper.
Makes you wonder what they consider "incredibly powerful". Do they consider the Cobra Missile Launcher 'incredibly powerful'? What about the Eagle; do they consider it "incredibly powerful" (might explain why they made it an N7)?
I can't wait to 'balance' ME3 with Borderlands 2 for a good six months.
