As a heads up, we are looking at balance changes to the Piranha and Carnifex for next week. We feel the Piranha is still too dominant of a weapon even with the recent balance changes and needs further adjustment. Although we haven't touched the Carnifex since ship, we feel it is obscuring too many other weapons in its class and needs some small adjustments as well.
This is just epic. Six months ago everyone was clammering over how OP the carnifex was. Now, 3 DLC later, it's a nonissue. And now is when they choose to nerf it? I can't help but feel this may have something to do with the discussion about the eagle. For those that missed that particular piece of hilarity, the devs feel that the eagle is okay because it's a caster weapon. Yes, it's okay as long as you're playing a class that doesn't try to make their guns do real damage. Good logic, right? They said they were to discuss the eagle together today because of all the disdain it gets from the community. I find myself wondering if their conclusion was "the eagle's fine, so that must mean the other options are too good."
I... I'm not rightly sure how to even respond to such a train of thought, so I guess I'll stop here and bask in the failure of the upcoming nerfs.
