Isn’t that crazy? Honestly, I don't find it strange or crazy. In fact, it actually makes sense.

Back in the day (pre-12.5.0), there weren't as many OP weapons, which gave weapons like the Pet Dragon and the Santa Sword a chance to shine. It is also worth noting that Champion Armor was nonexistent at the time, and the Robot Samurai wasn't in the game yet.

These are just a few reasons as to why, even now, the weapons that were buffed are still overpowered by the OP weapons of before the 15.1.0 update. That's not to say the efforts of the developers to balance the playing field were worthless. In fact, older weapons seem to be gaining momentum among the community. I've encountered Dead Star users a few times, as well as some 'Sniper Spammers' using the Laser Bow.
