Haven't had a chance to deep dig into the changes yet, but there was a smile put on my face when I looked over the variant changes.
The nerf to the dual LBX-20 / UAC-20 boats was definitely needed because some of them were just ridiculously insane! That Loki UAC-20 variant use to make my Atlas crap it's pants and it could rip me up faster than I could deal damage back. That new Thor variant also put a smile on my face. 1 ATM9, 1 CLHL, and 1 LBX-20 is definitely a beast to be feared.

I also like the changes to the Shiva variants. The LBPL (lol, useless) variant got tossed out the window for an interesting 4x UAC-10 variant. I'm a big fan of dual UAC-10's, but now it's twice the fun! But, the H-gauss, UAC-20, and LXPL is a rather awkward variant if you ask me. Nothing seems to mesh well here. Still seeing that LBX Shiva variant made me cringe. I was hoping the flying beat stick would get its wings clipped cause it's overpowered as hell.
Sadly though ... there was no fix to the Sulla landing issues from my testing and you still have to land at minimum 150 speed or go boom.
