What would be a good change for the Hellbore?
Changing Graviton Hellbore to skip all shields, perhaps?
Probably doubling its damage and making it skip all shields would be good. It does a lot less damage than MBs, PPBs, APBs, etc. at short ranges, and almost nothing at long ones. Make it killer at short range, but get really weak at long ranges (same rate of damage attenuation it has now works nicely for this). Ofc, the Ripper Beam should do even more damage than the GHB (a lot more, maybe 50% more), as it has very short range. This creates vastly different combat options for these weapons (esp. with the different ROF).
