The next 7 days are going to be lit as gently caress because a bunch of the changes from foreskin happen today, like weapon slot rebalancing, shoulder charges going to 1hko, and uh, other stuff I think?

Developer Insight: With Forsaken, we've made a major change to the systems—the freedom to slot powerful weapons in either the Kinetic slot or Energy slot. This fundamental change necessitated a fresh look at a player’s damage output in both PvE and PvP.
Primary ammo weapons and Special ammo weapons may exist in either the Kinetic or Energy slot.
Heavy ammo weapons can exist only in the Power slot.
Ammo type and damage type are now fixed attributes of a specific weapon.
Ammo distribution models updated entirely to support weapon slot changes.
Energy weapons no longer deal bonus damage to active enemy Supers.

Also they made Orpheus rig do something with Moebius quiver, but just to clarify:
You on;y gain the bonus energy from tethers now with top tree Nightstaker (it used to be explosions/damage share did too) but upped the ammount, it's still pretty ok to get full resets (arguably easier with the stacking type you used on Argos)
Now for Moebius quiver it just gives you flat out 2-3 extra shots.

Guns appear to roll with some random perks, depending on the gun (so if you really care about min max for PVP probably yes), I think some guns (like redrix) roll with a fixed core perk/perks and roll with some randoms
in the case of Exotic armor, the warlock gloves I saw were exotic perk(s) then random reload perk, random ammo Storage perk
