Fighter weaponry efficiency changes

[Haste]

We're making changes. For one, we're addressing issues in how efficiency affects different matchups (anti-cap performance, for one) by offsetting it with 'armor penetration', which I'm sure I can get into more in the future. I will say however that the intent with the efficiency changes was to:

• Increase fighter groupfight TTK.
  
• Make underperforming options (Let's say Lavablades compared to Vengeance) more appealing.
  

As efficiency is already rather unimpactful in fighter duels compared to groupfights, increasing the efficiency of the worse-performing options was obviously not going to change much. It took superhuman effort to run out of power while running an 8.33 750 loadout pre-patch. So, the logical play is to take the most popular, cookie-cutter options down a notch, which we did.

I don't really see a good reason to roll this back. We did a good bit of groupfight chase testing and everything from Fury 4 to Magnums was in a pretty narrow band of performance with the new values. If the values are decently good in that environment, where efficiency is king, it is pretty safe to conclude low efficiency loadouts are going to be absolutely fine in duels too.

However, the formula is ever-changing and we will no doubt tune things further, and we already have some changes slated for the next upcoming patch. Slightly increasing shield drain for fighters while gently bringing efficiency values closer together is something I might entertain, however, as that would bring the value of efficiency in duels and groupfights further together, while also having some potential to make peeling (or focusing multiple targets) more viable compared to dogpiling one person.
