bob The brawler change was literally required. Any fruit that had a ranged m1 would instantly teleport you into the grab. Last I checked, that's now how grabbing works, not to mention your grab would clip people into walls and the ground which is literally a glitch. The only changes that happened to brawler (and every other grab ability) was making it so instead of using teleportation, they use velocity, so they're actually moving around using the physics engine correctly. The people who hate that change are the people who constantly bug abused and cheesed in combat.
You can't make changes "one by one", this mod rarely updates and only does it when there is a large amount of changes.
The mod hasn't got worse thanks to any of these updates, it's just people getting too used to glitch abusing and getting depressed when they no longer exist. The mod is only getting better each update, the only thing this mod really had going for it WAS PvP, which is still extremely good (and imo, more fun than the older versions). This mod lacks singleplayer content and actual objectives, meaning unless you're grinding ready for PvP, there's not much to do, that's unfortunately always been the case.
