id say u can do it most likely , its an insanly easy quest for tha reward recieved imo (speaking in comparison to other quests for decent weps) will likly take u a few mins tops to complete
Yeah, that's what I said. It's ridiculously easy. The thing that takes the longest is just walking down to the 3rd level of the Ryyt trail.
Mask scent and Smuggler daze ftw,
I got it. Had to run through tons of red crap over and over most of it was below me and just high enough to aggro.
The creatures you need to kill for the quest were cake, easy. Now I just have to Master BH

mine's bugged. When I sliced it I did 2 slices on speed and the rest in damage and criticals. but instead of a 4% slice like it "shows" it to have, it's more like 15-20% slice.
I haven't been able to reproduce it since then. DPS is close to 600.00 - modified, with just MBH. No other carb mods. hehe.
I'd advise destroying it, seriously. Double slicing is a known exploit and people have been banned for doing it. I'm not saying that you intended to do it, if you did then you'd hardly be dumb enough to post about it here, heh, just saying that it's not worth the bother or some nub repoting you because they get owned.
Proton Carbine is a good weopon. If you slice it for 8% damage and stick a 34% damage PUP on the weopon, it will have really high MIN damage. It also has 90 cold damage that factors in. The only disadvantage that this weopon has that it is energy damage. I have killed a few jedi with my proton. Its a worthy weopon.
Only one carb considering to add to your arsenal is the Special Ops Bola carbine. It also has high MIN damage.
Alot of people craft weopons for low SAC and Max damage but when fighting a jedi u hit much closer to the MIN damage of the weopon. The quest weopons may seem sub par at first glance but the elemental damage and high MIN damage make them better than they look.
I was once a master pistoleer and if the jedi wasnt wearing a PSG i could do more damage with my trando pistol than my SAC/Damage capped FWG5.
Its possible but difficult to craft weopons for higher Min damage. U sacrifice alot for more Min damage.
