The piranha damage decrease is good, ballistic blade buff, hell yeah. wait damage reduction on arc grenades... why? the demolisher had slightly lower damage but she pumps out more grenades then an entire team of QM combined why the damage decrease. I know it isnt a very large decrease but it still feels unnecessary.

Still hoping there'll be a Destroyer Missile Launcher buff.

and all the crying was for nothing. It still almost as good as on release (piranha)


On the contrary, it being almost as good as on release is likely due to all that crying.
Now the threads discussing it need to find a new "it" to discuss. Preferably sprinkled with the word buff.

- (Platinum) The force threshold to cause Phantoms to stagger lowered to Gold levels

Thank you so much! Awesome.


Uhh...I kind of have to take those compliments back. This change did not go live. The threshold for staggering Phantoms on Platinum is still 1200 N, not 900 N like on Gold.

Tested the Piranha. Seems fine now. Still dont get the blade buff. They were fine as is. Why not buff something else.

Like the Locust. And maybe the Scimitar.

Is this stickied to keep our rage contained? Usually these change-announcements aren't.

Rage? That's one of the most solid balances ever. Should've doubled the nerf to Piranha though.

- No buffs for crap guns like scimitar, locust still
- No buff for destroyer missiles still
- No rebalancing of typhoon
- No fixing of all the those game breaking bugs still
- A pointless "buff" to a skill again to give false hope to the people

Not bad but I would've expected more from the delay.

Where are the sniper rifle damage buffs??
The change to the shield mechanic does nothing if they still do crap for damage.
Otherwise im quite sick of nerfs. May take a break from this game awhile to protest :P.

Piranha nerf does nothing. Still OP on GI, Destroyer and Turian. Will get nerfed again.

There is a phrase for you= score obsessive 
if ur not at the top of leader board u get mad then blame  it on a gun that has just been balanced so get over ur self.Its fine now it was OP before now .It is now balanced with the rare class of weapons, no longer ultra rare.

so, they buffed Piranha, then....nerfed it even more? I seriously doubt BW 'balance' team know what they're doing. And the ARC nerf...for God's sake, Demolisher could spam grenades at a rate QM never would, so the difference in damage was entirely justified (also, by lore, but nbd seem to care)

That's not what he's saying. He doesn't want the weapons to get nerfed, but the GI and Destroyer will always have a certain effectiveness with any weapon.. moreso with good weapons, thus, only the GI and Destroyer will be able to enjoy them, while all other classes are slapped with a weapon that used to perform well for them, but from then on only can be made workable by the aforementioned classes.

My interpretation of his view.. so.. don't shoot me.

Yawn, how long does BW plan to do this? Leave it all alone at some point, like previous COD/BF games have done. This is the only MP game I've played that sends updates every 7 DAYS. come on.

Guess people are excited for "MP BALANCE CHANGES MARCH 2015"!!!! Yeah looking forward to the "NERF"

Considering how some games never even do Balance changes or do so only infrequently, having weekly balance changes is only a GOOD thing as far as I'm concerned. It means there's a lot more chances of seeing the result of fixes and being able to roll back if required rather than having imbalances plague the game inbetween months of balancing. The implementation isn't perfect, but I'd rather have frequent balance changes rather than occasional ones.

I don't like the piranha nerf. Its already wildly inaccurate, you literally have to be in the enemy's face to do good damage. Pretty much useless in gold or platinum now.
Platinum was already hard, but at least I'll be able to stagger phantoms now, which is nice.

Great job nerfing the quarians. Can't have anyone being better than an N7 character at anything.

Balance, huh? What a joke. :sick:


Rest assured that they'll nerf all the N7 characters after a little while.  The destroyer will no doubt be hit again and and they'll go after my beloved demolisher.  I expect the biotic god fury to take a severe hit as well.

No, that would be a mistake.  Keep playing the game and make sure you don't spend any more real money as a form of protest.  I've already spent quite a bit of real money and I'm refusing to spend any more in light of the game changes.  I still enjoy this game, but I see no point in spending even more money on items that'll just get nerfed into the ground, anyway.  Keep playing and don't spend.
