Of the one billion potential weapons in Borderlands 3, few rise above the extent of vendor trash. Some of the Legendary gear rises only a bit too excessive, Gearbox say, so that they’ve stomped it down a bit and buffed others to achieve “an acceptable medium”. Which appears a little bit of a disgrace. If Borderlands is a wacky game of reckless foolish gunmurder, as Gearbox fake, why not buff every little thing to the very best degree of daftness? Cowards. It’s a cooperative game, not a aggressive one, COWARDS.
Gearbox defined in yesterday’s blog post that they need to cease gamers being pushed in direction of the few mega-powerful gadgets:
“Our goal with Legendary gear is to enable a large variety of playstyles and builds for all characters. After looking through the data, we found that that some pieces of Legendary gear were greatly outperforming others and felt they were limiting builds instead of increasing them. In addition, some of the damage output of Legendary gear limited the growth in combat engagements for the future so we tuned everything to an acceptable median. We expect all Vault Hunters to be able to create amazing builds and we want to support that with more ways to grow and reach those power levels.”
They’ve notably hacked 25% off the Butcher’s accuracy and injury, diminished the Crossroad’s blast from four projectiles to three whereas decreasing its accuracy, and lower the Flakker’s injury by 33% in addition to making it spaff your entire journal in a single shot. But they’ve additionally buffed a load of different weapons by as much as 40%. All participant pets get 50% extra well being too, and the Digi-Clone a whopping 100% additional well being. This does sound… balanced. But it doesn’t sound wacky (the cowards).
See the weblog submit for full particulars on the steadiness adjustments, in addition to explanations for a few of the larger ones. The replace launched final night time.
Borderlands three is that this week hosting an Eridium-o-rama event, being an entire lot extra beneficiant with the uncommon foreign money.
