Dev Insights - Next Gen Armor

TL;DR:

• Stats are no longer tiered every 10 points
• Stat cap increased to 200
• Points over 100 will add additional effects
• Legendary armor will have a stat archetype
• Some stats are changing to be more useful. Still in development.
  • Ex. "Discipline" is becoming "Grenade".
  • 0-100 has same effect of decreasing cooldown
  • 101-200 increases chance of getting an extra grenade charge when cooldown is up.
• Set bonuses are being added.
  • Ex. 2 pieces of Tex Mechanica armor increase hipfire
  • 4 pieces of Tex Mechanica buffs all TM guns.
• Current Legendary armor is basically getting sunset. Stat values will not change for the most part unless balancing is needed for new stats.
  • Doesn't sound like old armor will be able to roll above what it's current stat is or be able to be brought up to the new system.
• Exotic armor is getting a separate rework to bring it up to par with the new legendary armor but this will not be happening at the same time.
