    I am happy with nerfs to avoid power creep as long as things are generally getting buffs.

    I don’t want to get into a situation where everything needs to keep getting blanket buffed for balance because they find imbalances and going up is the only option.

      I see your point, but I can’t think of a single thing that is so OP right now it needs a nerf. Even the Incendiary Breaker was good before the nerf, but not crazy strong where it made other guns obsolete. I was still running the Scorcher or Blitzer before more often than not. So just because a gun is popular doesn’t mean it needs to be gutted.
