@PaulTassi That way we can ensure that we're actually addressing the core concerns, rather than implementing a change that may fix the rates in one area of gameplay (for one group of players) but makes other gameplay aspects obsolete.Or implementing a change that doesn't quite hit the mark.
@PaulTassi We just talked a bit more about the complexity of the drop rate question here: https://www.reddit.com/r/outriders/comments/nmhv9a/anyone_else_feeling_dread_and_deja_vu_about_the/gzqnbf7/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3
Understanding goes both ways - With a better community understanding of the system, we in turn can also have a better understanding of the specific ways to address things.

@Xbl_Shect0r @HailigerMosef It was the issue that was causing players to take a lot more damage - so it had a gameplay impact that was not just visual.
@HailigerMosef The difficulty was that the damage mitigation issue was a two-fold issue.
One issue whereby armour values were not being properly calculated.
One whereby certain monsters attacks were two-hitting, thus circumventing the the spike damage protection.
Related but separate issues.
Outriders has been updated!

3/3
As we are not comfortable releasing the patch with this issue in place, we need to take a couple of days to address it.
This current patch is now re-scheduled to be released early next week, pending final confirmation that the above mentioned issue has been resolved.
2/3
Our final tests of today's planned patch uncovered an issue that could pose a risk to the stability of the overall patch, so it will not release today.

@ApacheAndroid We want to ensure the game is stable before looking at balancing, since bugs can impact the overall balance in an unintended way, and balancing against bugs isn't ideal.
@Christm77 We want to ensure the game is stable before looking at balancing, since bugs can impact the overall balance in an unintended way, and balancing against bugs isn't ideal.
@TheUncleGhandi Of course - Stability of the base experience continues to be our primary priority.
