I agree as always Cody needs love but the problem with the super mods made him balanced argument is that power is relative. We'd still be having this discussion if super mods were in game only instead of "he has only 10k hp and gets one shot" we'd say "he has only 25k hp and gets one shot"
Nothing can protect Cody like he is from a 20k Rey hit and nothing could protect super mod Cody from a 55k super mod Rey crit. It's all relative

I disagree because the mod nerf itself wasn't balanced, it was both widesweeping and inconsistent. On rollout I could have multiple mods with 23k flat protection & 12k health bonuses, which is exactly what Cody needs to be viable in the supermod past or nerfmod present. That was changed to very small flat bonuses or % increases, which obviously punish Cody much more, relatively.
So it doesn't even out, and he needs to be rebalanced with the new mod standards in mind. He's slow *and* has super low health/prot *and* has mediocre damage. The mods as they are can't compensate for all those things as the old mods could, at best we can hope to ameliorate one of those issues. I hope @CG_Kozispoon can weigh in on CG's position about a Cody rebalance.
I don't know, I remember what those Arena's were like and I don't see it but it doesn't really matter at this point. Either way the issue is that Cody is poorly balanced. He has the HP of a true glass cannon but is missing the cannon piece of that title.
