Arc Grenade Power (Male Quarian)

Ballistic Blades Power

N7 Piranha Shotgun
- Damage decreased from [70.9-88.7] to [61.7-77.1]
Why nerf the damn Male Quarian? The toon is not the greatest anyways. It makes for a good Silver/Bronze guy but I would not bring it to Gold.
WTF with the adjustments for Platinum. I still don't have an effective strat for platinum.
The only good thing about the Piranha was the rate of fire and the DPS. The thing is worthless at range.
