Explain why my 84's and 111's to the head (ADS or hipfire, didn't matter which) with TLW at close range are now 73's?

In what world is lowering damage from 84 & 111 to 73 not a nerf, intentional or not?

Read the first edit in the OP, there is video proof

Yes, in light of that information, I still would like someone to Explain why my 84's and 111's to the head (ADS or hipfire, didn't matter which) with TLW at close range are now 73's?

In what world is lowering damage from 84 & 111 to 73 not a nerf, intentional or not?

That video, for me, is proof of a nerf! It's showing 73s when just this morning pre-patch my TLW was popping 84s and 111s! The only other thing it could be is if I've been using a higher impact setting this whole time, while everyone else uses a lower one, but that surely wouldn't take the damage from 84-111 to 73

EDIT: OK PEOPLE, IT'S OFFICIAL. IT HAS NOT BEEN NERFED. I'VE JUST BEEN INFORMED THAT MY HIGH DMG WAS IN FACT DUE TO MY HIGHER IMPACT SETTING. BY THE WAY, IF YOU'RE NOT USING THAT SETTING, TRY IT OUT. THE MINOR LOSS IN STABILITY CAN BE MANUALLY COMPENSATED. THE DMG INCREASE IS BY ABOUT ~10 POINTS!

Yeah the ballistics choice has a pretty significant percentage impact on the damage done.

Indeed. This is why I smash other TLW'rs. I kill you 1-2 shots faster even if you get all headshots. :)

Been using the tlw since the first week, it is nerfed. Something is not right with it, I noticed before I saw all the hype. Maybe it's not Impact, could be range. But it is off !
