Something great happend. I had my proton carbine sliced before pub 19. Guess what? The new stats are still there, but the tagged smuggler paragraph is gone, and i am able to slice it AGAIN!! Think its worth some dough?
I'm not a smuggler, but I've heard smugglers say that already sliced weapons cannot be sliced despite the fact that they show no signs of being sliced.
this is correct
DAMNIT!

Man...I hate to sound like a complete and total newbie (I just got back into SWG after a year off), but what weapons are bio-linked?
All of my armor has bio-link tags on them, but none of the weapons I use do (including my Proton Carbine). I was really hoping to have my Proton sliced after the slicing fixes went in.

What are the stats on your prot. carb? If you capped SAC and damage (krayted, all subcomponents experimented for sac) you should definitely take the critical. Speed is a non issue since your profession offers you plenty of speed mods, plus I'm fairly certain you'll have SOME skill thats on a seperate timer, and seperate timer skills = speed not an issue. Thus with the statements that you cannot slice above the caps, critical would be extremely handy with BH critical shot. If however you're one of those people who still believes in the DPS fairy tale, I'd get your ADK back and find a real weaponsmith, and then read this post over again from "What".
Bio Linkable weapons include the clone weapon Boba Fett gives you for his quest, and (some of?) the ones the Rodian hunter guy gives you in the Etyyy hunting grounds.
IMO, most bio-linkable weapons suck in combat- but then again I'm a carbineer. They look freakin cool though.

Oh. well.. umm.. *points to sig?*
So I had my Proton Carbine Sliced today under the new system. I had the 3 damage slices done, one speed and one crit for a total of 100%. Elemental damage never changed, but the damage range changed.
Min-Max
428-855 (start)
436-872 (1st slice)
445-889 (2nd slice)
462-913 (3rd slice)
Unmodded DPS is now almost 360 (I forget and I am tired). My modified DPS, without powerups, is almost 600.
Methinks I might use an ADK on it =)

Great question. I wrote down the numbers as the smuggler sliced it for me. I am not ingame, so I can't double-check to verify. I will look later and double-check.

Is that the damage cap of the gun, as 8% would be 923?
