UMP45 Balance Changes

Manageable recoil and strong close-to-medium damage make it too easy to use well, so damage comes down slightly.

Balance Philosophy

For every weapon between A and S tier, apply one nerf to one aspect of it so it's not completely dominant on the battlefield.

Proposed Changes

Each entry lists the move or ability affected, the adjustment itself, and — where the analysis states one — the problem it is meant to solve and the reasoning behind it.

  1. Damage

    Nerf
    Proposed adjustment
    Damage reduced from 41 to 39.
    Current issue
    It has relatively manageable recoil while still providing strong close- to medium-range damage, making it an easy weapon to use effectively.
    Reason
    A smaller damage reduction keeps its controllability advantage while reducing its overall effectiveness.
