History

 * March 30, 2022 Update (The Arsenal Update)
 * Increased Compensator's vertical recoil reduction from 15% to 30%.
 * Decreased Compensator's hipfire cone of fire penalty from 20% to 15%.
 * Dev Note: Compensators tend to be used less as players learn to control vertical recoil. These changes push the attachment closer to relevance for more setups and skill levels.
