1.08 detailed patch notes

"[MP] Increased enemy shield gate amount on Bronze/Silver/Gold from 330/640/950 to 495/1152/1995"

What does this mean? I know what the shield gate is but what is "shield gate amount" and how does it differ from just shields.

Yeah some nice stuff indeed. And buffs to the enemies because people were complaining things were getting too easy :

However, what does the following mean?:
EDIT: Fucking ninja'd grrr 

Some good, some why?????? They didn't happen to mention the amount of melee nerf to the jug-shield. Makes me wonder what the max melee damage was before and after this patch goes live when considering a character optimized for melee with the jug-shield. I really don't understand the thought process of nerfing the melee bonus. They are saying because we use it they nerfed it? I mainly use it for a shield bonus. If they checked I haven't melee'd more than 1 thing a match in quite a while but I use the jug shield a lot.

I also find it funny they already buffed the S weapons. Didn't they play test these before putting them in game? Yes that's rhetorical. The viper S may be pushing in on the valiant(which needs a buff as well) territory.

Gold enemies now do 10% more damage with all attacks.

Why?

Pariah no longer armored. I like that.

Some, but I would like my vanguard melee build back, please.

Also, that shieldgate buff completely negates single shot snipers?

Overall though, the good outweighs the bad by a good margin imo!

I am dead serious.

I would bet they have a goal for how many APs they are selling. They they examine APs in relation to credits being earned. And that ratio is carefully monitored.

ATM no frigging clue.  Had no clue how enemy shield gate works in Andromeda before (just that it is there and it does stuff ..) maybe these new numbers will help

any idea the time of release for patch?

soon™

A little bit off topic.
But does anybody know what the size limit for a thread is? I would like to share some kit builds but can't as it won't let me upload the thread. Also dividing into several parts doesn't help.
I'm a little bit confused.
Thanks anyway

Think they probably tried to quell the uprising  of complaints since their release. I'm kind of fine with it if it means they're all decent. Katana needs some love, but Avenger getting a higher damage per shot than Revenant? Daaaaayum.
