Apparently the defense for the nerf is "it is now working as the devs intended" instead of "we're caving to the whiney shits"

Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.
To be honest it was probably never intended to work the way it did with weapons like the Conference Call. I do however now suspect that the new raid bosses will be more or less impossible to complete (not that it's actually worth doing them anyway).
I see they still haven't fixed the issue with Assassinate the Assassins. I've tried that mission three times on different characters and still can't complete it because the mission item drops where it can't be obtained.
My Commando is now equipped with more or less redundant gear. Thanks 2k.

You can still destroy raid bosses by playing co-op with other people that have the bee. The change only really forces you to keep cover in mind wherever you are and you can't just rush in guns blazing and get an easy kill like before.

LOOT 
Got a bonus package lvl 50 looking if I correctly started pt2.5 with my siren just running up to boom and bewm killing them the first time outside the story *
got a lvl 40 legendary siren class mod jumping to the wrong quick travel station(cpt scarlet ship). my words to my friend 'lemme sell something at the vendor to make this mistake worthwhile' BAM item of the day is a legendary for my current class
got the flakker 5 mins ago finishing tvhm for my commando with same friend in the game. flakker sucks
bought the nukem launcher and the harold hand gun with torgue tokens. the harold is seriously OP and enables me to boom anything lvl 50+ to shreds.
and then I got a lvl 13 baby maker from mrs bartelsby playing a random game with my gunzerker
also got a rollingthunder days ago, stashed up I have two firehawk shields, the WTF, the transformer, a lvl 23 thunderball fist, a lvl 40 deliverance, the volcano sniper rifle and then some more grenade mods at lower lvls, I think the bouncing bonnie, the stormfront and then some more items which I keep forgetting...
oh yeah, somebody gifted my gunzerker a lvl 50 legendary GZ classmod just for being helpful and not a jerk online
so, drop rates don't seem to be so bad to me
*I finished 'Talon of God' with a friend before I finished some story missions before that last one. DONT do that like me, my sirens world is only half leveled up to 50+, luckily my commando class has the whole game including the dlcs set to 50. Next thing to do is raid bosses. tried terry twice, died quickly and horribly. with my new gear he should go down in bloody shreds

BL2 wins GOTY and all we got were five golden key codes. I want some skins or custom heads instead of poop keys.

Meh, recent drama and such on GBX's forums has me wondering if I should bother giving them any more money
Mainly I'm annoyed that during BL1, they did nothing to prevent people from boosting their backpack space to obscene amounts, yet in BL2 they've not only gimped the hell out of BP/bank space, but also took additional steps to ensure the gimped storage space stays gimped(any excess slots over the "normal" max get auto-deleted unless occupied by an item)
Then there's the "e-terrorist" fiasco that I don't feel like trying to research to any extent.
In regards to keys, I'm slightly annoyed by it, but it is nice to be almost guaranteed to get something good without 15 hours of raiding one boss/mini-boss

About the only time to bother is right around the first time you get to Sanctuary. Once Sanctuary is airborne it almost isn't worth it
I use them much later. It's easier to get level 40-48 stuff that actually does damage from the chest than it is to loot for it. I've probably used 6 keys total between my two characters. Once you get a decent weapon set, though, there is no further reason to use it. I hate opening that thing and getting crappy grenades and shields.

Haha! But it was much appreciatedAnd how many times did I crack that open for you?
Most of the times I've opened it for myself I've gotten grenades and shields

Some E-techs are pretty great, but Kantham thinks that their utility (if not most of their utility) is tres limited.

Depends on the weapon.
SniperRifles: Since they just pierce, they're unable to crit. Possible advantage since that also means you can't de-helmet Goliaths
Shotguns: half-assed grenade launcher. IMO, Bandit ET shotties are the only ones worth a shit
Pistols: I don't think either type can crit and I'd like the "Needle Gun" effect more if it hit harder the more darts were stuck
ARs: The only decent ETech AR is made by Vladof. Dahl acts like a pseudo-shotgun which means you get to waste ammo unless point blank.
SMGs: Sacrifice some projectile speed for a big buff to damage. Probably the best weapons to have ETech variants of, if you exclude Bandit ETech(aka half-assed flamethrower)
tl;dr - My opinion, Vladof ARs and most brands of SMGs are the only guns that are worth having ETech on

Used 21 keys and have yet to come across these pieces of shit. Chest is useless to me as is most of the loot in this game.
@Kyllian - I've had a decent E-Tech sniper rifle (though not out of a chest). What made it good wasn't using it as a sniper though - it had a rate of fire so fast that you couldn't fire off only one shot with a mouse click even if you tried. It'd unload it's full magazine of 12 shots in a fraction of a second. Sadly this meant it was effectively using 36 ammo per shot, but let's put it this way - the bosses and named enemies weren't giving me any trouble xD
