That may not do as much damage as you think against a master Def. You will do .7 damage in pvp so you carb will be 359-777, and if you fight a MDEF you will be hitting with the 359-400 per shot, provided you are not using Pyro. You will usually do more damage with a Proton carb with the 8% damage slice, since the 90 COLD damage does not have the Same .7 damage reduction. You will still have have the 335 min damage but then you add the 90 Cold damage per shot and you are doing 425 per shot before specials.
359 x 1.9 = 682.1
425 x 1.9 = 807.5
I am using an extreme example, you will actually do about 30% more than your min against a MDEF.
Against a MDEF you can expect to do
359*1.3*1.9 (advanced critical shot) = 886 with your Carb
(335*1.3) + 90 Cold Damage X 1.9 (advanced critical shto) =998 with the Proton.
I have run this time and again and I do the same damage every time against a MDEF.

I think your calculations are not correct. Elemental damage is factored outside of the normal energy damage because there'sa seperate resist for that. So it would be more like (335*1.3) as the energy damage, then you add mitigation and mods, then you add the cold damage with mitigation for THAT and then the mods.

do you guys think it's better than mbh/mrifles 4xxx cm ??, i loved carbines on my other toon but now that i've switced servers i thought i might give rifles a try i always heard it has a high damage output but the only thing i've noticed so far is sniper shot but kinda hard to use that on a jedi unless you get the drop on them.Message Edited by BraumHadar on 09-04-2005 08:23 AM
The worst thing about rifles is that if you miss that Sniper shot and the Jedi pops FR and gets right into his saber throw/powers range, you're toast.
High damage + Low speed + Poor close range accuracy = One dead MBH should they miss
thanks man, guess i'll start droping what i got in rifles and go back to carbs, i missed them any.
