Uhm .. nothing was nerfed. Stuff was BROKEN ... and they FIXED it ...

Crafting was nerfed, Stuff is still broken xD

Idiots. Absoloute idiots.

I am glad of the change, it was always dubbed as the marksman's gear set. The set is still useful for SMGs and ARs, just not the 4-piece bonus. So your build isn't a total waste, you just need to change 1 piece out and you will still have a good build, just not an OP one.

This keeps getting spewed out by people on this forum " it was always meant to be a marksmans set"

Annnd where in the testing and development phase by Massive were the restrictions put in place so you couldn't use ANY weapon with Sentry's set?????

There weren't any restrictions, none not one. It was released as it is and players used it as they saw fit and guess what, Massive are not happy about it [ see crafting nerf, 4 HE drops from bosses and so so and so on ] so it's also getting the nerf bat HARD.

No nerfs, just buffs.LOL

Nothing to do with it being broken or class specific. So stop spouting the same same shat about class specific, broken set. There are no classes in this game and the set is doing exactly what it was designed to do.

There are two pieces to the argument. Semantics vs. actual balance. Sentry is way too good and needs to be taken down a peg. That said, marksman is just lamest badge you can get for being on the range. Hell, the NRA even awards it last I heard. Up until the last SotG, Massive gave no indication that Sentry was working incorrectly. Assertions that they never expected everyone to use it with automatic weapons either speak of a serious lack of foresight or some last minute spin.

It really doesn't matter though. 2/3/Savage and 3/3 are great. I was getting some 200ks with an AR yesterday. ~50% armor destruction is pure magic

Of course they aren't happy about it. People aren't using as it was intended, and as result, it has unbalanced the game even more.

Now they have locked it. Which isn't a nerf or a buff.

The Gear Sets are not meant to be class specific, they are meant to enhance play styles.

Lol, the name of the gear set is bit of an indicator - 'Sentry'. Also, read the 1.1 patch notes, it clearly states: “Sentry's Call” – enhances marksman capabilities. That is where we are getting this 'crazy' notion of it being for marksmen.

But in true Massive fashion they didn't think things through properly, so it became the most OP gear set in the game when used with SMGs or ARs. Should they have handled it better, mentioned something ealier, or even released the set with the restrictions in place? Yes, sure. But this is Massive, so things never go as they should :P

now this really annoys me, 2 weeks ago on state of the game, you reassure us no nerfs just buffs, then a week later, you casually tells us you making my sentry's build useless WTF, i use AR and SMG with sentry's, i spent hours getting and rolling sentry's gear, i spent a s hit ton of credits, rolling stuff, NOW MY BUILDS F ucked. I was looking forward to patch 1.2, but it seems your just making the game harder, just think all the things they took away in 1.2, its going to make the game alot harder, no reckless, balanced,brutal (nerf ) and of course sentry's.......................................... ..........honestly you should tell us when things are not working as intended, has soon as you know, not let us farm for a month, to get future nerfed gear,I WANT A S HIT TON OF MATERIALS, OR I WANT TO BE ABLE TO ROLL ALL MY SENTRY'S GEAR AGAIN.

I,M NOT SURE I CAN CARRY ON WITH THIS GAME, what will you be nerfing next week? what about that dude, what about the state of his hair? he is just lies, its sad when you have to lie to try keep players, half the problems/bugs you dont even mention really im confused to what you intend to do with this game, honestly i dont think you guys do, you promise the world, but deliver nothing, i just think playing this game now is a waste of time, you dont communicate anything, just tell us what you think we want to hear

"no nerfs just buffs" LIES, THIS IS 100% PROOF YOU LIE.

had to lol so f'n hard (@bold): 'what about the state of his hair?'..sh*t made my day, thank you sir!

i would of liked some information earlier, i know its OP, i wrote a post 2-3 weeks ago it was op and needs a nerf, everyone cried its fine, i was a tacticians guy back then, but thought i may aswell jump on the bandwagon, seen as they are not changing it, 3 weeks later,its changed, its just seems like wasted time on this game, ive still got a very good tacticians and a decent strikers, so i guess i will just see what happens, i may even stick with sentry's, but i still dont like being lied to

[JD TheNutz]

Sit back and I shall tell you a tale.

Once upon a time there was an mmo that had a particular class that could cast a 'debuff' that lowered dexterity but due to a bug it was lowering the dexterity of non-player controlled enemies by hundreds of points which made it 100% impossible for any monster to hit the player. People rushed to take advantage of this and when it was fixed, they cried about the nerf but were told that the skill was never supposed to work like that.

Now, do you seriously think you're supposed to apply a massive damage increase to enemies three times in less than one second? Did you really think that was how it was supposed to work?

My only concern has already been addressed. I needed that ridiculous damage boost to take down level 34 shotgun enemies, and they are supposedly being adjusted to not be instant death to high hp full armor characters, and we're getting more armor. This will also mean fights in the Darkzone might actually be fire fights and not 'first one to spray half a clip with Sentry wins'

what game was this? i,m guessing Neverwinter..........................maybe because its the last game i played before Divisions

[Fazemlidaiya]

Either way, they caught their extremely terrible error and corrected it ... FIXED it ... sane players who actually care about balance are happy
