Ok I don't know what the heck FJ is doing with the latest developments jam but it sounds bad to me... Onto my point, back when we had the good tier system there was an electronic mania update that provided T1-9 varients of shields as T10 options (same shapes with buffed hp and increased RR) the new balance doesn't feel like we need this, however if they provided a top tier option of the previous tiers weapons with the same damage but consumed less energy and perhaps had altered fire rates it could be more Varied in T5 again. It's just an idea I guess, what do you think? And is this what you meant originally?
