Not really no. It's on par with your other weapons as long as you invest into stats equally (hence why Focus). Give or take, depends on whether you'll be leaning for defence (Dex/Tech - latter improves the Bot's damage) or offence (Str/Support), so you may end up having one stronger than another but at cost of some offence/defence. With the change, players shouldn't be afraid to go non-Focus and suffer from lower damage - not necessarily abusing one or two stats. Not mentioning that Bots are more viable for those who don't go Focus (say have Focus 3 at higher level), due to higher base damage and lower bonus from Focus. So whilst they may have an ability - defensive (Assault Bot) or offensive (Gamma Bot/IA) -, they won't have to go Focus 4 or 5 to get something out of it. Likewise with effects such as Chomp or Color Blast - they do have lower damage and effect attached to it, but those with lower Focus would usually hit for low damage thus setting them back a bit too much. Now, it isn't that bad.
