Designer Notes :

The Piranha Pistols seems to be in a very good position, both for berserkers and for gunslingers. Even so, it was overperforming on the hands of experienced players. We want to reinforce the retrievable ammo mechanic so we reduced the ammo pool and increased the ammo price for each mag, in order to give more importance to each round. Also, we reduced the damage mitigation of block and parry of the single version, as we understand that makes more sense regarding the weight and cost of that variant.

We are also happy with the current performance of the Corrupter Carbine. Only the seed mechanic seems to shine too much. So we slightly reduce its damage and healing capacity.

The HRG Disrupter in gunslinger hands was overperforming a lot. We implemented a drastic damage reduction to the alt-fire. Even so, the EMP potential remains intact as we think that it's what makes this weapon unique. We also made small adjustments on the primary fire damage, ammo pool and ammo cost.

On the other hand, the HRG Tommy Boom was not performing as well as intended, especially in the latest waves and against big Zeds. We boost the hit damage and explosion radius. The damage bonus of the weapon upgrades was also improved. Finally, the weapon will count with one additional ammo mag as spare ammo when purchasing it.

The Mine Reconstructor performance has substantially improved. Still, we got several requests by Field Medics for boosting its healing capability, so we slightly increased it.

Finally, the Hemoclobber heavy attack healing was tuned down a bit more, as this weapon is still outshining other options, especially in the Berserker perk.
