Summary0028727: Switching equipment should show relative stats of new gear vs what you have equipped, rather than base stats
Descriptione.g. if I have a AR-52 Black equipped I would want to see +48 in the combat power stat instead of +70. (Shotgun CP (70) - AR-52 Black CP (22) = 48). Applying to all stats between the two weapons/items.

Or, if you want to also show the base stats of the new weapon when hovering over it like it is now, just add a new line that says Relative Change or something so you can tell at a glance.

Basically to cut down on mental math for the player. If I'm switching out equipment it is usually because for a given situation I care about one stat more than others. Showing how much a piece of equipment is better/worse than your current equipped gear (or base stats if none is equipped) would save a bit of mental math in figuring out if the gear you're about to equip is actually better/worse for any given stat.

And anyway, the way it is now, it actually LOOKS like you're seeing relative values, because the gear numbers are prefixed with +/- even though that's not actually the case

* When you are hovering over equipment in the loadout screen, it now shows differences (improvements or reductions) in stats and feats, and perks that are added or removed, as follows:
** If you have not already changed that slot, but that slot has existing equipment, then when you hover over items in the dropdown of that slot, it shows the differences from what is currently equipped in that slot.
** If you have already changed that slot, but not yet committed it, then hovering the slot shows you the differences from the existing equipment to the new proposed equipment.
*** In this same circumstance, if you hover over entries in the dropdown, then it compares them to what you currently have selected-as-proposed rather than what is actually equipped.
** This flow gives the largest amount of flexibility in terms of "comparison shopping."
