Weekly Update

Big news is the weapons balance is changing again.

-Auto Rifles getting a slight damage increase

-Pulse Rifles getting a damage reduction

-Hand Cannons getting an increase to ADS accuracy

-Shotguns damage fall off is getting a big range reduction (into melee lunge range) and a slew of other changes (slower movement while ADS, more time to actually ADS, etc)

-Luck in the Chamber on Snipers will only buff precision damage, not body shots

EDIT: And I missed it due to looking at the weapons stuff:

New Exotics are on the way. Some brand new, some are new Y2 version of old Y1 exotics. Apparently being added to the normal loot tables for exotics, so it seems like not more quest specific things.
