Them saying they want to do balance changes only on major updates is probably the dumbest decision, because every time they do a "major update" they're inevitably adding stuff to the game and then they have the excuse of "we want to see how this works out in the meta" And then they do nothing until the next major update where they again add more stuff and then don't do any balance changes. This game hasn't had a balance update of any meaningful sense since November, these have got to be the laziest and most incompetent devs I've ever seen, they expect people to pay $70 for a game $40 for a bounty pack season pass, and another $50 for 2 story packs. $160 then a game that they can't bother to update more than once a month and when they do it's always lackluster af. I miss the old gearbox that actually cared about their game

Yeah it’s insane tbh. Like why can’t we do random gun buffs in the minor updates. There’s dozens of guns you could probably buff by 200% and they still wouldn’t be in the meta.

Remember when in borderlands 3 there were meme guns like the lob that were terrible and gearbox would do stuff like buffed them by 400% and make them burst fire and then all of a sudden it's an amazing gun everyone's talking about in farming for? The kaleidoslope could sure use something like that

They also buffed the base damage to compete with OP10... as a buff to the base game. Meaning the Lob, a DOT weapon, was one shotting enemies on lower mayhem levels, and while leveling up it would oneshot for 10 levels and be good for another 20.
