| The impression I get is that these weapons were bugged and the change was a fix. If you look at the list, it's all the weapons added in this year's patches, e.g. Bourdonasse, the Mighty weapons, the Platoon weapons, etc.
So my thought is that when these new weapons were introduced in the patches, they were coded incorrectly. The update now brings them in line with the damage calculation all weapons are supposed to use. It doesn't make sense that these weapons should all be "special" and have a different damage calculation, as they have nothing in common in-game. |
