Tiny Tina's Wonderlands Liquid Cooling nerf leaves many disappointed

Here’s the crux of the article in video form:

Developed by Gearbox Software and published by 2K Games, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is a spinoff in the Borderlands series.

Released in March this year, players can either enjoy the game alone or play with up to three players in the multiplayer game mode.

However, soon after its release, players reported bugs and issues such as being unable to join or invite friends in co-op mode and Chaos level not increasing.

And as if these issues weren’t troubling enough, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands players are now saying that the nerf to Liquid Cooling has made it useless (1,2,3,4,5).

Many are frustrated and wondering why the developers decided to nerf the gun to the ground. Some estimate that the base damage has been reduced by up to 70 percent.

Players say the developers should have tried nerfing it a bit or reducing the damage by half. Below are some reports from some Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands players commenting on the Liquid Cooling nerf.

It was good for every class. I understand it needed changed but now it’s just worse for everyone. They could have modified the over heat mechanic to the point that it overheats for non crit builds. It’s a crit gun it should be the best gun for a high crit build. There was better ways to change the gun without gutting 2/3 if the damage.

A nerf here and there is fine but nearly 70% damage reduction is a bit excessive and if most of the other guns are useless then it’s not balance, just killing mpre weapons until nothing is left. Almost every legendary is inferior to blue or purple guns and those aren’t even that great. Right now you basically use Ice Spike for spell and Tediore or that 1 cryo sand hawk clone for guns. If not then even killing trash mobs can be a chore and bosses take ages.

But since the game is PvE, many say there is no point nerfing guns until it one shots a boss. We hope the developers listen to player feedback in the coming days and make changes to Liquid Cooling accordingly.
