Players are mad about the rebalance changes that are about to come in 11.2.
The following are my personal opinions, comment whatever you like.
The main purpose of this rebalance according to Pixonic is to increase TTK (Time To Kill), my opinion will be based on this. I respect Pixonic's decisions.
I know the numbers will change after all, but already I can see many things wrong with this rebalance.
I will also be adding in small descriptions to help you understand the current situation of various equipment.
✅ = I agree
Crossed out = I disagree, changes are made
➕ = A brand new change is made

Its horrible for brawling now lol

#

As for It being a Sniper
Most Sniper weapons got harsh nerfs

#

So

#

I dont think its necessary to kill rvger

#

If u kill the weapons u kill ravager already

#

And Guess what
They did both

wet mango
#

Scum make me sick. Idc what the terms of service read. Pixonic steals from us. Plain and simple.

bright sedge
#

Dux and mauler need all the nerfs they are getting and so do those kirin/mogwan/gangil weapons. Also glad to see the sword doesn't just get to pop in kill and pop out again like it was. Same with shenlou, but dropping those kirin/mogwan is helping with that

# bright sedge Dux and mauler need all the nerfs they are getting and so do those kirin/mogwan/...

dux doesnt......its already squishy like that, it needs a tiny work on the dmg and thats it
the csgs are supposed to be a high-burst, but low in ammo weapon, getting them completely out of the meta is pointless, js like every other shotguns that had its meta in the past
sword's whole family of weapons are having a reduction in base dmg, but their percentage dmg remains the same, they will still be the meta

#

as for mauler, my changes actually made it even squishier

#

the ones that rly deserves the nerfs are:
ravager's whole set
devourer (a bit too harsh but ok)'s whole set
samjok (a bit too harsh)
and the power crepted weapons over the last year or two

celest ermine
#

Because bear in mind
Ravagers not good
The weapons are

#

So now that they nerfed both the bot
And the weapons
It technically got a harsher nerf than dux

#

Also dux shouldve kept some gray hp
Rvg shouldve kept some dmg after going off veil

#

Samjok also shouldnt be a worse ravana
It was easy food for me already

buoyant patio
celest ermine
#

They nerfed both the weapons
And ravager

#

An example of a broken bot would be samjok or dux
Since they can cause havoc without the need to use any meta weapons

#

As far as i know if u use punishers rvger in any match u get cooked
Proving my point further

#

Ravagers not broken
The pilot
And weapons were
Its kit was good
Not broken though
Only reason it competed w meta was the absurdly overpowered sniping and brawling weapons

buoyant patio
#

Ravager doesnt need to be broken to be “broken”
It has 5 medium after all thats what im saying

celest ermine
#

The kit was insanely good
But definitely couldnt compete against samjok/duxes kits

#

It only could because of meta weapons making it insanely good in the meta

#

Was it a robot meta where weapons did barely any damage it wouldve been a bad robot

latent wasp
#

I like everything except the dux idea, since I'm in lower leagues cuz I got a new account and these dux robots (prob tankers) just can't be beat. And on top of that bs they heal gray hp so it's hardly possible to kill that thing in low leagues

buoyant patio
#

And, they overnerfed the Devourer, completely.
Even as of right now even on the Live Server it cannot survive against anything with Bjorn teslas and Frederick ms, which is everywhere in Champion League. Removing the DMI is not necessary, thats js allowing robots to decimate it further js like Devourer in the Dux meta.
They should buff the reflected damage from pilot.
And at least make Devourer not lose health when linked to something.

sacred tinsel
#

Grey HP healing should be nerfed a lot

#

Because going back to full health every ability use is bs

#

It should be able to heal Grey HP but like 20% every ability - not 100%

buoyant patio
#

It has barely any hp actually

#

Hp value has borderline no connection to tankiness nowadays

sacred tinsel
#

In every league below masters dux was completely destroying not p2w players

#

And they would quit the game more often

#

Less players = less profit

#

So they are making the game playable on lower leagues

The issue isn't the re balance, I think many would agree that the games been in need of some sort of rebalance for a while, it's mainly what and how they're rebalancing it. The reason this even happened was because of the increasingly overpowered robots/weapons that have been released with insane HP/DMG numbers. The raptor/ravager are decent examples as well as gangil type weapons with HP already almost 150k+ at lvl 1. Its power creep, plain and simple. They've obviously nerfed mostly everything but if you focus on what got hit the hardest, its obvious what the end goal is. Money.

#

What really needs to happen is to stop releasing things that quite literally break the game. New weapons/robots is nice but if it breaks the game every time they come out with some, it will only be a matter of time before this happens again which will only cause the game to bleed more players. I'm sure that some ppl probably will quit once they'ver realized they threw how ever much money down the drain, if they stick around, the next time something similar happens might be the breaking point.

#

TL:DR, stop making game breaking shiet. Stop adding shiet period in terms of robots and weapons for a while and focus on making the game more enjoyable, Maybe add some sort hub for random pilots or clan members, Faction rep for the ingame factions, etc. The game needs a change in its business model because at this rate, it will only be a matter of time before it dies.
