Math:

New Space Skills are on tribble, Nikki has been looking at them closely, toss in some little math tidbits to wet viewers apatite, and make joke at Admiral Murphy’s expense.

Quad Cannon Controversy, Was Geko misquoted as to the Quad cannons being the highest damage cannons in the game or was he simply referring to the 3 damage modifiers on the item. Item is level-less.

Torpedo spread, most notably Torpedo Spread 3, has being causing controversy as well.  They were targeting up to 10 enemies and now with the patch 3, 4, and 5 targets respectively.  PvPers were raging about this as it was supposedly causing 1 shot kills.
