What's the story on these slices, are they creating an increase in dmg output or is it another pipe dream of Blistex?


I haven't seen any references to testing of a Master Bountyhunter with a "critical" sliced weapon. I'm hoping someone with a dual mastery cna express their test results to show the benefit of slice a weapon in this fassion.


Thanks in advance.

Would like to know this also, about to buy another adv laser rifle and thinking of a critical slice.

i think they said its broke...would suggest a min or speed slice maybe instead? tighter damage range helps

Its broken and will probably remain so for a very long time. Go for a speed slice

My primary pistol is a little out of range on the dmg ability weighing in at 998 max dmg un puped. I can push this to 1137 with a pup without any worries. With a SAC of 84 I feel it's a nice cannon to have at my side. (can get some insane stats with this thing using differnt pups. The "base DPS" of 500+ is an eye catcher.)


I'm looking at slicing something close to this although what I'm hearing is that the +CRITICAL+ from an attack is ONLY applied if it is landed while using a Critical Attack. When this attack is used and a +CRITICAL+ appears I've seen reports of the dmg being increased although there's not many players reporting this...

I have sliced several weapons to the full amount of critical slice.


really havent seen much of a difference in landing them.



I prefer full damage, then the rest in speed then whatever is left to critical slice (for the 100% customization)

Ok, I have sliced my weapon to 1 speed, all damage, 1 crit. I do notice an increase in shots doing critical with adv. critical and it seems to do a 25% or so more increase in damage. I've even seen it do a critical for an Underhand shot, Headshot, and Startleshot. They all did more damage than usual (though KD was still pathetic damage wise).

min damage?





Not completely memorized but I'm sure we can do the work here


Base 2.02 speed

Max 998

Base DPS 360ish


Min around 460


Can you also give a quick explanation how the lower min of around 460 would affect this?

As I have a WS alt, I created a gun solely for the purpose of crit-hit slicing it. Capped damage and SAC on it in experimentation. Sliced it for crit hit. I get a critical hit 3 out of 4 times that I use Advanced Critical Shot. This is a serious impact, however, that said...I RARELY get a critical without using the critical shot. Take that for what it's worth.

I plan on having my next gun crit. sliced. Reason being is for one, it works well against Jedi, and two, after I apply my states (pistoleer, MBH) It's nothing but switching between Adv. Critical and Improved Leg shot.

What does this mean? Landing a Critical is supposed to up your damage on the NEXT shot you fire. This means that I am pouring on the damage alternating between these shots. For instance, without a crit. chance sliced gun, using my speed sliced FWG, I was doing 987 damage to a Jedi I fought a few nights ago. He went down quick to say the least. I expect my next gun with a higher accuracy and higher crit. chance slice to do even more, and for Jedi to fall even quicker...
