I can understand that, I guess. I just feel like it could've gone through a nerf like it had in the past again. Perhaps make it so its old benefit instead worked at 4th, 8th, 12th, 16th and 20th level. That would make it so the -1 to a mental stat is functionally removing the Ability Score Increase that the player gets every 4 levels, and the Soldier can only ever get a maximum of +10 in their stats from Mako Infusions. Of course, I'm only spitballing here in hopes that one of my favorite archetypes isn't made into something I won't want to touch ever again.
Of course, that's only my opinion. I do appreciate your quick response, too. That being said, the old page for Soldiers can still be accessed with the Internet Archive, so I don't really mind either way if it's changed back or not. My usual group of players and GMs is usually really open about what the players get to use.
Also, feel free to take my suggestions with a grain of salt. I am still very new to the nature of balancing things for a tabletop setting.
