From what I saw when it was first released, it was a pretty stupidly high powered weapon..
Also, taking your point "How can I know if a weapon is overpowered if I haven't used it yet?" Isn't it also true that it could of been absolute dog**** and you'd have still wasted 75k on it hmm? So in which case you'd have still complained about it.
KSG seemed to dominate in most circumstances, thats why it was reduced a little, pretty sure rather than blocking every bullet it now blocks a % of bullets to even the playing field..
Now, what exactly is wrong with the KSG? No one seems to want to tell me what is wrong with it x.x Is it too slow? Too low damage? Blockrate too low? Freeze to high?
Throw me a ball and I might throw one back.

Okay, here we go: you have to take in consideration that the KSG is 75000 gralats, which makes it one of the most expensive guns in Era. Seeing this, it doesn't have the power of one of the best guns of era, something I would expect, as this is rather weird because most of the other guns do have something like this. (a price/quality relation that is more balanced) and I don't know if I would have complained about it. Probably not, it's not just the KSG being nerfed, it's a line that has been crossed (I already explained this didn't I...?)
It also certainly doesn't dominate. Let's take two guns, the KSG and an M4 or another weapon that is in the same price range (around 75000). Let two people wield them, place them facing each other and let them shoot. Wouldn't be surprised if M4 won, although it's price is 20000 beneath the KSG's. What's wrong with the KSG is that it's a "special" gun and that (understandable) it's hard to know which stats should be given to it. I would suggest the old stats (from when it came out), with maybe even one damage extra per bullet. Just take it in consideration, try things out, maybe you can see what's best for the KSG then
