The Doombringer / Reload Speed Situation

[sty]

I dont get it...

I get that nerf's, buff's and overall balancing are part of a game (played Years of WoW).. But the logic of the Doombringer nerf annoys me..

While Shrapnel, Power Surge and whatnot builds pumping 50k, 60k, 70k + DPS (PVE) the Doombringer PVE build is getting nerfed to oblivion..

Nerf the PVP aspect of Boots and Doombringer? Fine for me.. all good - but what really broke everything is the reload speed "nerf" (or "fix" as they told us)..

Why create a calibration which gives you +150% reload speed then? It seems just totally unfair, especially because this calibration is still the same.

Love the game, but this just doenst make sense to me

Basically I spent 25k+ Starchrome for this build and now its absolutely useless.. thats ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ frustrating

Same here. Properly ♥♥♥♥♥♥ off about it as well. Devs making the same mistake as many other games sharing pve and pvp gear.

I was thinking about it to get, but luckily i was stuck on my sniper build.

no one has a problem with the range nerf. The problem is the reload speed.. A build got nerfed roughly about -60% dps while other equally strong builds didnt. And - as i mentioned - the reload speed nerf ist just plain stupid when you have explicit calibrations for that

doombringer reload should be a feature not a bug, i rather exchange 30% crit rate for it

Doombringer was promoted by youtube hacks showing excessive damage at medium range. If you're upset at the nerf, blame the hacks on youtube. (and twitch)

All the elemental weapons deal good damage.. this min/maxer thing is why the guns are being nerfed and unfortunately it seems the devs are incapable of balancing anything, like they don't even comprehend what is or how to balance anything.

And many developers are doing the same thing all the time. They also min max but in the worst way possible. First nerf is a doomhammer to weapons everytime.

What the... I just maxed my doombringer and my set and they do this crap? I'm feeling the bungo vibes.
