here ill help you a little
TanksYou missed the point entirely.....Tanks has no more info than I do or any other player that can login to TC-EP3.
Only a RED NAME makes it official.....and I did check your link to the Tanks Tracker there and his name is still BLUE, which means he is not a Dev, which by the way the Devs haven't even decided 100% where the Proton Carbine is going.
no, i didnt miss the point. i was talking to pikeman411. but a couple people posted before me.
he said tanks said it was official. i was pointing out that tanks has NEVER said it was official and was providing him help to show me exactly where tanks said it WAS official.
sorry for the confusion

Actually, even a RED name stating such is not good enough for some people if they do not like what they read/hear. Then, people put all kinds of qualifiers, percentages (90% etc.), disclaimersto the news even going as far as trying topredict devs "intent" and "thinking". People turn into constitutional lawyers trying extract nuances from any word a dev chooses to support what they wish.
The truth is Proton Carbine is "slated" to go to MBH. Can this change? Yes. Do I have high confidence that it will not? Yes. A Master level Cold Based Carbine has been one of our Top 5 issues for a long while. Also, do not forget that this is a loot item. BH community would have preferred it to be craftable.
If you assign qualifiers, then you could even say everyCarbine"slated" to Carbineers can change as well, CU is in test, things can and will change.
Also, how many Master level Carbines can you guys use at the same time? We lost our DXR6s and Laser Carbines from the Marksman line to Carbineeras well. As a matter of fact I'd like to see DXR6 go to BH Novice box as wedo not have a Carbine there at this time to be able to grind our Carbine line.

Personally I think the Proton Carbine goes just fine at MBH and Carbineer has plenty of Certs if they are all fixed and useful, but the facts remain it isn't official even though I get tons of people coming and whining and complaining and upset from what has been posted in the BH forum by you Tanks. It is important for me to shed the proper light to all these references to what you post, by simply linking to the actual Dev post so people can make their own mind up.....and at times I like to voice my opinion as well, but most of the Carbineers here know I don't shy away from voicing my opinion 
And we all know how you leaked this info on the Proton Carbine Cert before a RED NAME ever said "slated".....so don't pretend I am the bad guy here not wanting to believe what the Devs say, but rather I believe EXACTLY what they say without putting words in their mouth or saying something before it is released to the public. Afterall there really is only one logical conclusion to why the Devs didn't answer the Proton Carbine Cert question for a number of posts....because they are not certain where to put it, I mean why else would Helios tip toe around the location of the cert for so long?
There really is no trouble with this topic from me but I do not appreciate any person (corr or not, unless it is a Dev of course) coming into this forum and "stirring the pot" suggesting that Carbineers could/should lose more certs than are currently listed on TC-EP3. Trolls and Flame Starters are not the norm on this forum, so please refrain from doing such things, thank you.
