That incisor buff would have come in really handy when I was working on my sniper banner!

These balance changes imply that Bioware is basically done with balancing the game.
Balance changes only 2 weeks, yet the size of the changes gets smaller.
I will give it to them, the change for biotic charge is interesting, and the hydraulic joints buff is actually sizeable enough to make me consider it for melee builds again.
Other than that, especially the damage buff for CSR makes me sad. Damage isn't the matter with the weapon. The problem is its limited range and a scope that is made for long range combat due to its considerable zoom. But I guess that could only be addressed by a patch, so Bioware is stuck with a damage buff.

Forgot the rest of the universe doesn't do Mardi Gras! Wasn't expecting these, at all.

Nice!
50% chance for not triggering a cooldown! I hop I will soon get a respec card to try it out on the Phoenix. (Though sacrificing 50% of my barrier might be a high price.)
The CSR was very good before as well, now it's even better. However, probably from now on I cannot be a CSR hipster because everyone will use it now ;(

Furiously happy about the AF buff. I recently started using rank 5a damage over 5b speed.

Incisor damage increased by five points. Bsn sees buff, declares it "finally viable". Nobody realizes that five points is nothing in a game where some enemies have thousands of hp

Even if AF's evo 5 is buffed to 100% extra damage, I still doubt anyone would want to use it. Drain is just too important to a CQC style adept.

I didn't get it. Annihilation field evo 5 has either 20% movement speed or 15% more damage from all sources. Where do you get a 50% to 65% thingy? 


It's evo 6A. Detonating AF gets a 65% damage bonus instead of the previous 50%. I still take the duration and drain evo any day of the week and twice on sunday.


6A increases AF's detonating damage? I thought it only increases AF's DOT. :blink:

Edit: Nvm, just figured out you meant the blast damage.

The game's been out for almost a year, and we're still balancing launch weapons.

I see all buffs. This is like...... a first!

Eric, have you been drinking? (just kidding)

I'm glad to see that we still have developer involvement and balancing.

What's wrong with that? While I do think incisor's buff was unneeded, it was more due to how it was buffed rather than that it was buffed at all.

In fact, because of power creep, and because the metagame/devs have decided that the dlc weapons are to be the baseline, it makes more sense than the launch weapons need to be rebalanced now than at launch...

I thought Bioware told us they were going to change the balance to every two weeks...Bioware lying us again? Nothing new under the sun. Whatever, there are still weapons that need huge buffs, until then, Bioware can throw away all the collectors weapons, incisor, avanger, mantis, shuriken...

Yep. I mean honestly, who at BW thought that of all the things in this game that needed balancing, the biotic charge evo desperately needed attention?

There are huge, glaring balance problems in this game. Changes like this show that at this point in time, BW isn't interested in making the big changes needed but rather tiny tweaks that are ultimately meaningless.

Queue people telling me I'm ungrateful and that these balance changes are amazing :sick:

The biotic charge change is something that even was asked on this forum, since that evolution is just so uninteresting. Anyway, I think that the metrics are to blame here, this evolutions, weapons and equipments probably are almost never choosed by players, after all, only Bioware actually know what the players actually use or not.
