The bottom line to all this discussion is that the top devs (mainly Haste) has fine tuned everything to be within their own skill set for use- maximising their own chances within PvP encounters & providing elaborate reasons why when in reality, the base unspoken reason is for his enjoyment with zero consideration to actual balance or role play.
Look at every single change- it boost’s their own playstyles and nobody else’s. It just sucks the fun out of everything.
I recently had a haste only sided conversation about guns my char only had access to. They were role played as ‘high shield damage, slow refire, low speed & range guns which consume massive amounts of power to fire’ -
I pointed out how there are multiple other codes now which not only do more shield damage per shot fired/hit but also do huge hull damage, thus making the Defiler’s intended use a null and void point.
Haste went on about how it’s an excellent gun, that the RP which one of the dev team has deleted is irrelevant, how the ‘dps is higher’ and the ‘energy drain is less’ making it fair balance- and the guns work great on his Bastet loadouts he’s tailor made to work to his skill sets and over all I just need to get better at the game.
Ignore my personal situation here- that’s the mentality of the head developer Haste. Fine tune everything to his own hideously unbalanced view, suck any fun from anyone else then gaslight the player saying it’s a skill issue..
