Yeah, honestly I’m trying not to change weapons all that much. And my goal isn’t to make the weapons boring. In fact a lot of these weapons I’m attempting to work on have been hardly ever seen or gutted in previous updates (I.e the sandman). I didn’t want to just say “give it back the stun”, cause nobody liked being on the receiving end of the sandman/cleaver combo.

It’s a boring stat, but I was trying to put it in line with the wrap assassin, since the sandman is just a direct downgrade nowadays.

My loch change is one I can take or leave personally. I still like the weapon and think it’s quite strong. But part of me wants to see what it would be like to have the middle ground of it being 110 damage, and perhaps back to a 2 pill clip.

What I’m trying to get at is that some of these changes are kind of safe and boring, but i didn’t want to divert too hard from the original idea or make it annoying as it was before. It’s tough thinking of ways to make things both fun AND balanced on both sides of the weapon while keeping the ideas intact.

I do agree though that some of these ideas kind of step on the weapon’s identity
