Which turns out to be COMPLETE GARBAGE. The DP-23 previewed on last weeks friday feature had over 1200 max dmg and i believe an 85 sac. NOW go to this link and see the real ingame rifle, which is the worst rifle in this whole damn game. I dont know what they expect us to kill with this. Durni's? Nuna's? Capper Spineflaps?!?!?!?! SOE EXPLAIN YOUR FALSE ADVERTISEMENT!I was looking forward to getting this item more than any other item in this expansion. To be dissapointed and find it to be nothing more than a wall decoration. Unslicable and unable to be pup'ed. SOE plz explain this.Total GarbageSadiaMessage Edited by JediGuardain3 on 10-25-2005 11:35 PM
I hate to come off as a jerk, but I think it's a good thing that SOE didn't implement a weapon that WS's can't compete with this time. SOE is continally adding items that drive sales from crafters to the floor.
That being said, sorry that you spent all that time on a quest you were excited about, only to get crap at the end... I understand your frustration.

Sometimes, nothing is a cool hand.
Freedom OF speech does not mean freedom FROM speech.
This link should hopefully work for everyone.
As for the gun itself, it's clearly junk.
EDIT: Actually, the link doesn't seem to work still

rimy the thing is it might still be the case, the schematic will come from the cho-gun cube maybe, that way it forces crafters to purchase the expansion to craft the new weapon's rather than just being giving the schematic from questers.

Online Experience May Change
IT was stated many, many times before this went live that those were no the stats. The devs purposely changed them to be double capped to help with testing. I'm guessing someone in the Website department screwed up and posted an image of the gun with the wrong stats.
And to those thinking they can sue SOE or false adverting. LOL. I refer you to my first statement.
wow that stinks....
I was not looking for a uber weapon... just something usable... At 127 SAC this is not really usable..... The Mrifles rifle from Mustafar is also 127 sac... Bummer
Here's a snippet from the last HoC chat:
What sort of content will be added to the crafting professions in this expansion, or is this yet another combat only expansion
Do we really need the gun though? As is, Jedi hunting is shooting fish in a barrel if they arent hiding.
It would have been nice if they did say the stats were giong to be random, but that would have taken forsight on their part....lol.
Sides, why rely on a loot weapon...my crafted Trando Rifle is at 1353 with a power up pup on it. Just wish it was kenetic instead of Energy...those dang MDEF with PSG's make it useless heh.
The point with the weapons is that the skins are available also to WS so to get good stats you need to honour our beloved crafters with your custom.
And for the record, the quest reward stats are the same as the stats in beta, insanely high SAC and all...
