Whenever I see a BH using a weapon like a Proton Carbine or a Trandoshan pistol, I think.... "There goes another 'pretty good' bounty hunter".

My Nyms Sluggy (non slice / non pup) does more damage against a PSGd jedi per hit than my fully sliced and damage pupped proton.

Thanks, I'll use the sluggy (esp since it's only 9 pts lower on the est base dps of a stock Proton Carbine.... I can't wait till i get it sliced and puped).

Hehe, and to think I got called a noob once for hunting a jedi with a Nyms.

The key point to theEnergy vs kineticdebatewas how much damage would it take to destroya PSG in battle. I know some people said it only took a few shots to break the PSG. Perthe number crunching stats in the stickey, that is false. From reading that post, one must do over 33,000 damagedirectly tothe PSG before itdrops to zero. that's a lot of damage to do in one battle... And I guarantee you all the Jedi that reads that thread will be investing intoa PSG as well,

Kinetic FTW. Debate has ended. I do love the number crunchers / stat geeks from our fellow players. I am too lazy to do it myself,

did all the number crunching back then... but didn't save it. Oh well.

Here's another tip. The regen is almost negligable.....

5 minutes of alternating Adv Crit and Imp Leg shot (two most damaging shots in game for DPS, sniper is to slow) with a sliced proton carb, and the targets PSG was ABOVE 90% efficiency.

Unless you actually SEE that the target has a belt equiped (and so can't have a psg equiped), use the Kinetic weapon.

I hope more people read this.................

Nice job pointing this out!
