With the torso/critical timer of 1.7 seconds, and critical slicing fixed, wouldn't it be better to get a full critical chance slice on our weapons? I'm seeing so many 350-450 base DPS pistols that are retardedly past the BH specialsspeed cap... when you could be taking advantage of more crits (= more damage)

ranged shot and placed shot are just as deadly adv.crit/torso. a 12% speed slice will help you with those.

hey, Oh are you on crack. Ranged shot and placed shot are no where near as good as adc. crit. On a Lvl 80 npc i can hit for about 1100-1400 with my carbine. With ranged shot i hit for about 800, if that.





yes, but you can only fire adv. crit every 2 seconds. if your weapon is speed sliced and has a modified speed of 1.0, then you can fire ranged shot and placed shot within 2 seconds -- for a total of 1600 damage, whereas you can only fire off one adv. crit -- for a total of 1400 damage.


in my opinion with regards to jedi hunting, and defenders in general, it is better to fire off many lower damage shots than it is fire off fewer higher damage shots since you will be missing quite a bit.

Well u might be right for a Rifleman. But im a carbinner and we get leg shot, which is advanced crit, just with a different name. and i can attack every 1.3 seconds. so maybe you are right, for rifle man at least.

But what if your ranged shot and placed shot both got the crit bonus from the slice? A crit shot when a jedi only has a bit of health left can be the difference between life or death.


....but I always try for a speed slice also

A critical slice doesn't actually add damage. It increases the chance you have to make a critical strike, dealing extra damage then.

why doesnt everyone slice their own weapon for what they think will benefit them the most and fu ck off imposing their over inflated opinions on everyone else?
