@EA_Jesse. Because the last time mods were looked at and adjusted it created pre-craft 2.0. Till that point I had still had faith that something would be done to address the concerns of the player base and forum feed back the only thing it changed was making them harder to obtain, which was not a problem.
@CG_NotReallyAJedi stated "While today’s update won’t directly affect Mods themselves, it will reduce how many insignificant Mods you can receive and will ideally let you focus on getting the Mods you need..."
To me this was a bending of the truth.
Well the update did just the opposite. Since now you can get Mk 3 or Mk4 instead of Mk5 mods in T3 of a challenge. If Mk5 are obtainable I would call getting Mk3 or Mk4 aquiring insignificant mods.
There was also no mention of the adjustment of potency and tenacity which based on update notes
"Potency and Tenacity have been normalized to exist between 0% and 100% when obtained through Gear. This was done to provide both a more readable number for comparison’s sake and also for balance reasons associated with Mods. Both of these values may exceed 100% through the usage of Mods and the comparison itself remains unchanged at this time."
Maybe I have a problem with reading comprehension but to me that means the adjustment should have been visual only and should not have affected the actual game mechanic of tenacity vs potency when in fact it did.
While I understand not listing every concern brought up about the update, Pre-craft 2.0 with Mods, and potency change are the 2 biggest ones. Your responses were very generic. The posts by @CG_NotReallyAJedi were not as generic and I had faith they would fix problems instead they created more.
Looking at and testing something that should have been tested is not addressing any concerns. We the players are looking at and testing things everytime we play the game.
While I understand you cannot give specifics something more than we are looking at it could be more helpful.
