No more modders! Yea! Shame about the daze being nerfed... My Siren was pwnn with that mind games maxed out. I'm excited that shock is getting buffed though. Fulgurating stinger FTW!

By "adjusting the chests in New Haven to have more appropriate loot" they mean LESS rare items. No word on what LEVEL guns will come out of the New Haven chests though. However, the General Knoxx will have chests that are twice the size (hold twice as much loot) and have new stuff so it probably doesn't matter. I've gotten more than I needed out of New Haven's chests anyway. :)
