Did we get nerfed?
I've been using Melty Dayumed Yellowcake (Rocket launcher; 11,356K damage) that has 200% damage on active Action Skill. I was getting 1million damage semi-consistently. Now I'm getting sub 100K even with action skills active.

Did this last update nerf something?

Yes the latest patch, nerfed the yellow cake launcher, sandhawk sniper and Kaoson SMG

Thankfully the OPQ's were untouched

yes... they somehow screw weapons that actually works on M10
like the only few weapons that are usable in M10 they strip it off.

The YellowCake was too strong, now they nerfed it to oblivion.
Thankfully there are still weapons that can fire rapidly and hit for > 2m consistantly even on Mayhem 6 (yeah, i need that, i am just that bad)

It's perfectly fine to stay at M6. Everything above is a grinding slog anyways.

Yea I am doing the same, M10 is only good for farming, but for actually doing missions I will stick to Mayhem 6, cause they mentioned that only 7 - 10 was adjusted.

Yellowcake is still good if you have the %150 rad annointment like me.

As for the Yellowcake, they did not nerf it, they fixed it and your math above shows that it was broken.
Let’s use round numbers:
12k dmg w/200% boost = 24k now times the 4 projectiles = 96k
So how in the world should it have been doing 1 million dmg? Unless something was broken.

I am still doing millions of dmg with the yellowcake. Just 2-8 millions instead of 20 after the update. So they fixed the ''multipliers'' i think. Use the %150 rad one with half life and its still very good.

They did nerf it - they even specifically said so in the patch notes.
And no, his math is not wrong either, BL3 just has a very strange way of calculating damage.
