Working as intended, but we welcome feedback on it. You're correct that I failed to update that thread that the damage figures were tuned during testing, after I'd posted the original statement. We're comfortable with where these values ended up after internal iteration, and the values you're seeing are currently intended.
Are you sure about that, as the mk xi damage seems to be higher than the mk x(as expected) and mk xii. I haven't tested to see if this is a display error or not.
SCM - Infected(S) - DMG Out: 11,776,567 DPS: 114,224.70 (28.7% of Team) - Pinky@ukcaptain420 I reserve the right to have a completely different standpoint depending on my mood.
Thank you for the thorough write-up on your thoughts, but I'm going to disagree with the quoted statement on the sole following principle:
A single one of these Plasma Science Consoles offers a larger potential DPS increase than a single Tactical Console of the equivalent Mark/Quality. While ALSO offering additional skill boosts.
In fact, with the above information in mind, we have been seriously considering aiming the damage even lower.
Player expectations are definitely important to keep in mind, but they are not as important as maintaining a measure of control over the actual comparisons that drive equipment choice and progression via items.
Hi Borticus,
I agree with the damage being lowered further. These consoles are causing havoc in PVP which was looking cheese free after the SS, Viral & Ionic fixes. I'm guessing "vs. player" scaling isn't possible with the consoles current engine?
