TBH, I didn't find it that noticeable? I still rip through UG HM enemies and do okay for Heroic ones.

Dragon's Nest Heroic (big thanks to Kenny and his group!)

The revive station caused my skills to be greyed out and unusable; very annoying! Be careful with that; only dying fixes it.

I should go to bed but I'm too pumped :D

Gz on DN hrc :), I couldnt motivate myself to play tonight, 2nd time I've been hit with the nerf bat after just starting to get somewhere, demotivating to say the least. 1st time I just got my 3/3 sent/striker set up, this time just after finally getting a semi decent g36.
 
Finished Herroic DN tonight with momo, twirly and Radeon.

I will NOT be doing that again anytime soon. I was getting tired, frustrated, losing concentration and starting making mistakes so thankyou guys for sticking around. I don't think any of us have spent that long doing an incursion before.

Got alphabridge kneepads so I now have a 4 piece alphabridge I can work on.

Also got
2xnomad gear :(
Reclaimers x2 (mask and holster)
Deadeye x2 (sold)
Pistols (sold)

Glad I got another reclaimer mask, and a final alpha piece for my set.

All in all, we figured out a solid method for the first part, the first part of the car park boss, the middle flamers after the boss, and the finale...

....but the 4 bosses are just ****ing annoying and the end is so unbelievably boring considering immuniser is so OP in it.


So Plan for tomorrow:

*finish off the new 4 piece reclaimer and 2 sentry setup (higher toughness and damage on the g36(roughly 14k) than the reclaimer setup I posted on the other page. All I need to do is roll a few items to higher stats as I ran out of money tonight
*Setup my 4 piece alphabridge, 2 piece is currently unconfirmed but will prob be strikers/sentrys
*Finalise the 4 piece tactician and 2 piece FM I started rolling tonight then ran out of money doing. Will be roughly 670k toughness, 32k electronics with 75-80% edr. If I get the funds.

Lots to do again and lots of final touches left. :) My favourite part lol

EDIT:

Massive can stuff their nerf. It dropped my g36 by 1k, which I have basically regained already, and I can melt l35 fairly quickly using it still. Takes a full mag though unlike before where it was 50%-75% a mag. Only tested on a few l35 tonight when I was running full reclaimer on DN but will test properly tomorrow in UG or DZ.

g36 is still the best AR in the game.

Following the change to the g36, I really must attempt to loot a better weapon. Especially given that the Scar I looted in dz 6 the other night turned out to be 182 and not 229 like I could have sworn it was....
 
The G36 handles differently, I noticed some horizontal right recoil in DN. Looked into it and Reddit has picked up on also but it doesn't end there

Also....server lag, glitches overheals, glitched skills, delta error, jamming guns (with and without one is none), inability to revive players, when downed, inability to give up.

I'm sure they will sort everything soon however but the above really prolonged everything this evening.

Thought it felt a bit different, felt like it had more recoil than before when I first tried it after the nerf.

Thanks Gamble, momo and twirly for the DN run, took a lot longer than expected but I still enjoyed it, can't believe after all that it dropped some nomad gear though.

@ Radeon: first green boss drop for me was FireCrest and I thought hell no! :D final rewards were a Reclaimer vest (over 1800 armor if I'm not mistaken?) and pads. No good weapons dropped.

This also provided me with a good opportunity to try out the new SVD I got last week (although the unique talent needs to be rolled off still), and I've become quite find fond of it. I wish the game had more sniper oriented opportunities because AlphaBridge + that M44 + SVD would be bad news for anything on the receiving end of the business part of the SVD. I'll wait with sniping until Wildlands ;) would be fun to try out on a high toughness build; any volunteers...?

This is my best build atm, not been affected to much by the G36 nerf. Still need new Vest and Backpack, will then have a full set of FM 268. Can't decide what other combo to use with it, any suggestions.

 
tried out 4 piece alpha this morning, not sure about it just yet so will keep an eye out for more AR's to mess with the talents.

Other than that, I decided to go into the UG and do a HM single phase solo as well as CM solo - single phase with no directives at all just to see how the g36 performs in reality as last night wasn't a good test. I completed both, but...the weapon is noticeably unstable now.

I never noticed it last night as I was in the middle of DN, but running solo and concentrating more it is quite noticeable. I never had to use stabilisation mods before due to how accurate and stable it was, a different grip sorted it though.

I also spent a bit of time proving that the reclaimer multi consumable proc isn't at all fixed, as I can still proc 2 consumables at the same time. I cant do fire plus explosion, but I can do a combo of fire/explosion plus elite damage for example. Doesn't work every time, but works enough of the time to be a problem.

I will be on later anyway, bit later than usual, up for whatever

Like I said, g36 wasn't OP, it was/is needed for when going against 35's, the reason it appears "OP" is because more or less every other SMG/AR is useless in comparison, at least against 35's.

Come on now.

surely that's the very definition of overpowered. The very statement tells you that it more power than the other guns, hence over powered.

They said on the state of the game that they've got the health / damage of the level 35 NPCs wrong. The G36 was helping people cope with that problem but the solution to that problem is not to undo all of the balancing they did in 1.3 and bring everything up to match a statistical anomaly.

The gun had 30 % more base damage than other guns, and only copped a 15 % base damage nerf as massive daren't nerf it anymore in light of the cries from the playerbase not to touch it at all.

rumor has it the level 35 NPCs negate 50 % of your damage and 50 % of your damage mitigation as this % scales with each level. The bump up to level 35 is too much and they know it. We've just got to wait for the inevitable patch that will come and sort the issue out. Massive have done the right thing.

Just look at it on a graph when compared to the other guns. Its miles ahead !

Sneaky stealth nerf.

Anybody who was stacking accuracy for some nice paper DPS are probably finding their G36 incredibly hard to control now. You really need some horizontal stability and stability to help keep it under control now.

Nothing noticeable changed for me regarding stability of the G36 as I already used stability mods ;) accurate too and it came with the accurate talent so.

Tek: you DZ farming tonight? Thought I might join you and get two others and see if we can get you those gloves and a FM vest and AlphaBridge gloves for myself? If I come online I can do an hours worth, maybe an UG heroic too. Just musing.

Hope my mic is fixed now although I'm sure Jedi appreciated the silence last night :p

Hey m8. I've also tried to do 2 at once and even though I can get both actions (loading and drinking soda for cooldown) I've found that the cooldown doesn't actually work (I've manually timed it). Maybe I'm wrong though...

Ah I didn't try the cooldown I don't think. I just wanted to see if special ammo could be loaded with the damage to elites buff (water?) and it seemed to still work.

Don't mind running a bit of DZ or heroic UG. Just need to sell everything for credits.
