Woah! Major Crusader and Kishock buff! I'm definitely liking the good balance change streak we have been on for the past few weeks.

I heartily approve! This is maybe the best set of buffs I've seen since the game launched, very excited to try these out.

nice changes, but I agree that the Crusader need more a weight reduction than a damage buff.

Did cryo blast really NEED cooldown buffs? I suppose you can now equip heavier guns and really reduce the cooldown, but really the buff was rather disappointing.

Cooldown wasn't the problem with cryo blast. Comparable debuffs warp and proximity mine are still much better as they set up/detonate combos and do damage.

I'm definitely liking the buffs we got this week. I'm pretty sure that the crusader is now a GOOD weapon on gun classes.
I :wub:LOVE:wub: the overload techburst duration buff. classes with overload can now set off thier own techbursts with incinerate or warp at ranges other than point blank!
I like the changes to the graal/kishok, but what they still really need is a projectile speed increase or just removal of that mechanic entirely, so they hit instantly like other guns.
I'm still not sure about cryo blast, I don't really feel like these changes made that much of a differance. Although I haven't specced into cryo blast in months, maybe it's time to give it another try and find out if it's any good now?

Cryo buff is... disappointing. Didn't remotely address its issues. Rest is pretty cool though.

Graal buff? Unnecessary but why not.
Kishock buff. Unnecessary but why the hell not? (fixing dat projectile dysfunction is required for maximum pleasure from this buff.)
Maybe I can make Cryo blast work with -0% -200 cds now. Kinda like Pull gotta test this out.
Overload: Hey this is good. More tech bursts.
Crusader is startin to look wholly delicious
Good batch good batch thank you DR. Fagnan.

No typhoon buff, no ****s given by me.

Sad that Cryo Blast is still not up to snuff. Needs another buff already.
Happy about everything else.

Great buffs, especially the Overload TB window. However, Energy Drain NEEDS the same treatment, it's currently almost impossible to self-detonate it.

The Cryo Blast "buff" is ridiculous. The two options that got buffed are the two options nobody ever takes because the other ones make much more sense. It's still badly outclassed by Snap Freeze. What a disapointment ...

Eric,
Please can you stop upping the firepower of the Crusader and instead focus on some of its other aspects? Upping the damage is not really solving the real problem (you can give it half the damage of a Claymore, but it won't change the fact that it has no home in terms of ranges, and the fact it weighs a ton).
Can you kindly drop the accuracy a bit (put it down to Saber accuracy, so aiming is a bit easier) and lower the recoil by about 20-25%? That would make the weapon a lot more aggreable. Currently it's too accurate for CQB, and at the long ranges, it has far too much recoil to keep a steady DPS while keeping on target. And in the mid-point, it struggles even more. Don't get me wrong, keep buffing the damage and it'll eventually be so strong that the main problems will go away, but that'll make a mountain-sized learning curve.
Other buffs are pretty nice, I'm no fan of cryo, but some people are, and it's nice for them to get something. Kishock is as deadly as ever, probably because it had to be compensated for every other sniper rifle getting a lot of damage through the shield gate. Nice work.

I have a horrible feeling that I'm going to try taking my Crusader VIII into games, and I'm still going to suck with it. I'm also sad that cryo blast didn't get a buff to the damage exposure evolutions, but I'll take that extra second.

That Crusader buff just makes me wants to use it even more. T-T
Also that Graal and Cryo buff!

Since I'm one of the handful of people who actually likes the Crusader...wow I love the buff(again)...How about a weight reduction next??

Crusader damage was fine after the last buff, what it really, really needs is a weight reduction.
Thank you for the Overload buff.

Buffs are nice, but the shotgun weapon class is already one of the best. Spread it around.

I find it interesting that Overload got a tech burst buff, but Energy Drain didn't. Otherwise loving them.
Didn't think the Graal needed a buff, but 10% seems reasonable, and cements its position against the Geth Plasma Shotgun a bit better.

If you think about it...they kinda DID buff its weight...by adding damage that balances its weight even more.

Too used to biotic powers at the beginning since most weapons I had couldn't do much damage. So yeah, weapon change is less interesting to me.
