I finally have a anti decay kit but want to make sure I use it on the best possible carbine. I love the carbines of the game but need to know what I should get a proton or g. striker since the striker has the skill mods I am leaning towards it. AN what should I get it sliced for? Anyone know if I can reuse a anti decay kit? Any help greatly appreciated

First off, ADK's can be reused however in order to do so you must destroy the item ADK'd. Proton is free and easy to get and does good damage. IIRC the striker carbine is MCarb certification so if you don't have MCarb then proton is the way to go. I'm not a "new" slicing expert so someone else will have to help you there.

Which packs more power though dps wise the proton or the greivous when sliced?

I don't own a greivous yet, but I got about 900 dps on my proton with a 4% speed and 4% damage slice, and pupped. There is a nice Critical shot slice out there, that ups your chances of a critical shot by a certain percentage, but they go for about 200-400k a slice on my server, so I haven't gotten that yet. I'm pretty happy with my proton carb, it rocks.

I think that nearly all Master Level weapons have a base dps nearly identical.

This is a reply to a similar question by one of Sunrunner's better (former ) armorsmith/slicers:

You want one with a SAC of 73, max damage in the 970's, speed around 2.3, and the highest min damage you can find. Then get it sliced for damage and use damage PUPs. The max damage slicing cap is below the crafting cap, but by getting a damage slice you will get a much higher min damage, which is what the damage PUPs percent increase is based off of. I've done it the other way with a max damage crafted carbine and got it speed sliced, but this way will give you a far better end result even if it doesn't show in the DPS.

73 SAC is the lowest you can go... and 1063 is the best max damage you can get on any carbine. He suggests getting one with less than max damage out of the factory, and slicing up to the cap rather than having the WS experiment all the way to max damage.

Having a higher Min damage will also help a bit against those MDefs that totally blow our accuracy mods out of the water with their massive defensive mods.

Get either a krayt Elite carbine or E11 mark 2. It does not take much to get the 1063cap for damage on them with krayt tissues. Make sure theweaponsmithknows what they are doing and is able to cap the SAC.

If you can get your hands on good gorax bones get yourself a Czerka dart carbine for the kinetic damage. Even though the stats cap for damage at around 900 you will do more damage with this weapon because it bypasses PSG's and is fun to shoot recon armor with.

Loot/Quest carbines like the proton carbine suck, only noobs use them.
