The difference between the post-Publish 18 and pre-Publish 18 proton rifles is that the new ones work and the old ones don't. They're still looking for a way to retroactively fix the old ones.
No, there are no high damage rocket launchers. The level 22 one is it.
I have a great way to do that...
Have the CSRs replace the bad ones. Since the CSRs dont do anything other than copy and paste deanials of help without reading the tickets they have to have enough time to be able to visit everyone and replace them.

It's like they just give us something quick to shut us up for a few publishes since we are now "fixed" for groups
It was bugged in Beta, they "fixed" it (hardly, they renamed it and that thing worked)
When it hit Live, It didn't work Period.
Who ever told you it was easy to fix, (im guessing you thought that one up yourself) was wrong. The last 3 publish notes had "Elemental Damage Fixes" and yet it's still broken. Considering that Publish19 isn't live, and the proton rifle is still broken I am going to hope that it does get fixed, but if it doesn't I can honestly say I wont be suprised.

To me, that say poor coding and poor testing.
The live servers are not live as in "tested and functioning", but they are in a permenent stage of Beta2. The bug fixes I wan't to read about are when they are working fully, not that they have applied a "fix" that makes for ex elemental damage show in combat spam, but not being applied to targets.
Second, the publish notes mentioned nothing about proton rifle at all, I know it was all an assumption that it was easely fixed. Now think of it, they implement lots of new weapons, some with attribute bonus, most without. Of all those new weapons, only one is unusable becouse it won't fire at all. Where do you think the error lays? It's only suppose to be a new database entry with corresponding graphics. What did they do that only applied to the proton rifle and no other weapon?

We've always been low priority for the devs, unless its a nerf
Well, I'm Master Commando... again. When Pub.19 hits, I will make out a CSR Ticket to request to get my Proton Rifle swapped for a working one.
I doubt they'll do it, but maybe...
