Assail nerf

This is what I read in my head. Can’t help it, but Assail wasn’t even a contestant for main weapon. Not if you were serious to begin with

Bro, come on. People absolutely were using assail as a main weapon in maelstrom missions.

So? It wasn’t on the power level of actual real weapons.

And this is what I read IN THE PATCH NOTES

@FatsharkCatfish

Dev Note: Assail has been very powerful and has acted like a third weapon in many cases. We’re increasing the time it takes for them to recharge to incentivise switching back to your Primary or Secondary Weapons after using it, instead of wholly relying on them in most Combat situations.

Can’t help it, but assail was acting as a third weapon but was never supposed to be one.

The “not supposed to be” I take a great issue with.
Vermintide 2 sucks in the gameplay department compared to the early life cycle of the game and it’s precisely because of this mentality.
“Oh, this is a thing, it’s not supposed to be viable as another thing”
“Oh, this ability is not supposed to be that good at ability thing”

I don’t want to see all the fun stuff in this game nerfed because people don’t even allow random other people to have fun in a COOP game of all things.
This needs an attitude adjustment, not “balance” adjustments.
