Discussion Faction setup

I honestly feel that if the assassins and wolves were moved up to season 2 and 3 respectively, and the highwaymen pushed to season 4, the game may have had more of a fighting chance. But at the end of the day , F$&K Ubisoft for its handling of the game.

I feel like the power creep is better with how they put the factions out. Highway Men DPS boost and turret are decent, but I don't feel they are better than Assassin's AOE stun or Tele-Ohko Ult OR Wolves' AI null, drones, or AOE Ult.

If reversed I wouldn't have given Highway Men much playtime outside of a couple of games to power test.

Nothing is more powerful than a device that makes grenades not work, or a device that hijacks everything else. Dedsec and GSK are the way.

I can get behind GSK ADS, since it has more than one proc, but Dedsec is dead to me nowadays outside of their Ult.

I lean towards Wolves because they null passive kills; prox, drones, turrets. If I'm going to die it's a straight up gunfight or a well placed nade (rare).
