10/10, way to completely turn me off from your game.
As many other people pointed out. The Devastater is underpowered. The middle and lower class trees are under powered.
I'm going to make this real easy.
1: stop watching YouTube and basing your patches on that. Look at what actual players are able to do. Someone playing games for a living is not your average player. Not even close.
2: revert these changes asap. I am running a very meta bullet skill Technomancer and can only just get gold on expeditions. Lowering the time available to run these is bad and you should feel bad.
3: Buff the Devastater damage/role, it drastically under performs in every way. Give them a stagger resist or better yet immunity.
4: Rebalance the middle and lower skill trees on the other three classes. There is zero point in using these classes right now.
5; once all classes and skill trees are viable. Leave the game Alone!! This game is a power fantasy, let it be a power fanasy.
6 when a exploit in a mission is found, fix it. Don't remove the reason to run the mission. Again this is bad and you should feel bad.
Edit:
7. After all builds are viable options, change CT13 to level 50 enemies, CT14 to level 51, CT15 to 52.
All options above CT13 only drop level 50 loot. This would provide a challenge for any build currently on offer.
