hi,

I´m trying to craft melee powerups with +32-33% max damage, but looks pretty impossible. Got a friend with such powerups, so the question that pops to my headis : is my metal OQ 995 and Chemical OQ 1000 not good enough, or did SOE remove that possibillity to get such high damage from melee powerups, or is it a OQ 1000/1000 outcome only?

Regards

well, i know humans get a +10 to artisan crafting (experimentation I believe) as a racial bonus (which stinks for me as i am only melee). That might be the edge he has and maybe some skill tapes

You have never been able to make a 33% Max damage Melee PowerUp.

Are you positive it's a melee powerup? Post a screenshot.

Hi there,

You should be able to do it with the quality materials you have. You'll need to be able to experiment your way to the 33% increase in one statistic of the weapon power up, so if you don't have the experimentation points be sure to work your way up the first to branches of the artisan skill tree (Eng and cooking I think). Don't know why cooking skill makes you able to make better weapon buffs but in real life I can't haul 900,000 kg of raw material around in my backpack either.

Now, exactly what gets buffed with each weapon power up you make changes around, even if you use the same materials. But, I have found that making muzzles usually gets a damage buff. Sometimes barrells do, but I more often get range or something like that from barrels.

So, get skills in the first two trees, keep using good materials, try muzzles.

Good luck!

The problem is not getting a 33% PowerUp (that's all I make). The problem is that the primary attribute (33%) of a melee PowerUp cannot be Max Damage. Please look at the PowerUp chart.

Not even with artisan assemply skill taps?

I play as human and got 11 experimentation points to use from. (+15 human bonus).

So if possible it must me some kind of assembly trick

What do you think?

No. It says +33 max damage, not +33%

Without the powerup, it would be a 47 min damage, 207 max damage, 35 mind cost powerup, right?

Let's look at the bonus, +4 min damage, +33 max damage, 11 mind.

4/47 = 8.5%

33/207 = 15.9%

11/35 = 31.4%

So this is a 31.4% Mind Cost/15.9%Max Damage/8.5% Min Damage Melee powerup.
