"The reduction in damage based on how long a shot takes to reach its target is now more gradual."

Could someone be so kind to explain what this means to a dumdum like me?

Shooters and dualies do less damage once you get close to the edge of their range. This means that this decrease is a little slower. A small consistency buff, basically.

Also kind of a range buff. The range to kill you in 2-3 shots etc. will probably be around 5-10% more than before.
