This is my personal opinion but what the hell happened to the balancing of all weapons. Most melees and guns deal 9-10+ damage now and the starter pistols are even better than guns that cost 50k+.

Melees are even more insane now since it seems like they're carelessly being thrown in shops with heals, AOE, or more. You can basically get melees that have pretty much the same stats as lightsabers now with like 500 trochus or 10k-50k gralats.
