Please stay on topic, guys. We don't need to be trolling and flaming. Things have changed, some for the better, some for the worse. The only thing constant in life is change, and things have changed drastically since the merger with AE. Titan and Nightwraith are working in the AE buildings, and like everyone else in AE aren't working exclusively on one project. They also have less time to come onto the forums or just chill in-game than they did when they were self-employed. They are not self-employed anymore, and must balance their time between working on exclusively what the players want (which seems to change by the hour, honestly) and what the company wants, and what's going to keep the game from collapsing in on itself (the "functionality" updates). Also, before you talk about how greedy Nightwraith and Titan are as people, I think it's necessary to point out (again) that the money from EpicDuel does NOT go directly into their pockets- they get a paycheck from the company, like normal employees. So, please stop with the personal attacks, because it's really unfair to them. I'll also point out that it's a fallacy that you need the best and rarest gear to stay competitive. I use rare gear, sure, but I don't use a rare armour, I switch guns (to include one that's non-rare) and I'm still using my Dragon Bazooka from way back when, in addition to switching it up with (I believe) a non-rare sword. And I'm a mod, who out of everyone is supposed to have the best stuff. I don't even HAVE the bunny borg armor. And I do allright. I lose when people crit me, I win when I crit people, but I do allright. I'm still a competitive player. Diminishing returns was also a player suggestion for balance from way back in Alpha, so it's something that's had a lot of thought put into it.
