E11 MkII is the "best" carbine right now.

I may be quite wrong about this (and possibly am) but the best guns are the guns that have the highest min-max damage. Seems that weapon speed atm doesn't really seem to affect the speed of special attacks. I may be wrong about that though...


Personally I'm in love with my Elite carbine from pre-CU that converted into something that has stats alot of Krayt weapons on my server can't compare to.

the proton carbine is nice (i love the visuals too) but you gotta pray for a damage slice on it, and a good one. the elemental damage seems to cause the numbers for the dps to go up by alot, but in actual use, i havn't seen much of a diference. but as for run of the mill crafted carbines, you can't beat an e11 mk2. cheap, and if you buy enough of em, yer bound to get a killer slice on it.

Keep in mind that the proton adds COLD damage, so unless your target is particularly resistant to cold, the damage is great. If they ARE resistant to cold, it is a pee shooter.


That said, I love mine and have it on my hotbar.

E5 carbiner, its MSL cert. I have 1178 max dmg and 497 DPS on it. MBH/MSL is a good group template for hunting jedi or what not.

Sorry but I don't think there is a 'best' gun. If you're looking for the magic bullet, simply put, there isn't one.



It's what you're best with, combined with tapes and your template. The most basic answer is a 'rifle'. Damage is very important. Rifleman gives stupidly highaccuracy and speed, plus the distinct advantage of distance. Personally, I don't care for them, but it's hard to ignore their inherent advantages.


Aside from your template, the best weapon question is probably answered by looking at your arsenal... for instance, I have 3 krayt pistols that outdamage (relatively speaking) most of my carbs and rifles.


Sorry to give you a vague opinion, but this is a question I see a lot and there is NO black and white answer for it. The only way to truly answer this would be on a personal level after knowing your template, your skill bonuses, and your arsenal... plus your playstyle.

i personally perfer my proton carbine, i have a great mod; speed=0.9 dps=810, so it serves me well when going after teh paddies. of course it sucks energy like a mofo and has terrible accuracy, but its the price i pay. nonetheless, its frickin awesome. i like it better then my E11 *gasps from the crowd*
