havent sliced much since CU


anyone want to shell out some hard numbers on what slicing stuff now will get us (as opposed to not slicing effectiveness post patch 19)


like


stats of a 8000energy recon suit sliced

stats of a 6500 primus battle suit sliced and

stats of a 8000 kinetic assault suit sliced



I ahve heard that some people recieved a 0% slice while others got a 10% slice. Is it random or did they make it so high end armors recieve worse slices?


also what is cap on high end armor slices then?

Smuggler's are saying to hold off on slicing as they are giving erroneous outputs that don't match the numbers they are given. The smuggler revamp is on it's way but from what I hear it's causing headaches because slicing can now destroy items. When you repair the broken item it reverts to 1/1 condition. I'm not sure if this is as intended, and due to the effect slicing will have it seems a steep penalty.

Slicing is just weird. Haven't sliced any layered stuff, only unlayered. I'm working the system to up the quality of my battle armor (dang tusk cats and their mangy coats). It has been established that slicing anything with an unlayered special protection of more than 5500 will cause you to exceed the cap and add unmitigable hindrances.


Now just an example of what I'm slicing now: I have unlayered padded at 5388, which gets 9 percent slices every time. That should raise protection to 5873. It doesn't. Protection goes to 5933 after you let the armor sit for a few hours so the slice will show up.


Slicing a piece of ubese with 5928 special protection results in a 7 percent slice. I'll edit my post with the new stats and hindrances once they show up.


Okay, the ubese sliced to 6338, which is slightly LESS than a 7 percent increase (should be 6343). Hindrances are above max mitigation, of course. RoF is 63.6%.

You don't have to wait for reset, just three hours or so.
