Yes.


Sign a petition that makes an object you swing do more damage.


Like a new handle for a sword... That results in more damage, no?


How about a new chain for nunchucks? That results in more damage, no?


Ooo.. How about some metal polish for you virbo-blade? That results in more damage, no?



Ranged weapon powerups make sense. A temporary mod, that changes the weapon. Should it work on kinetic ranged weapons? I dont think so. Because you're not modifying the physical ammo.


Do heavy weapons users get to user powerups? Nope.


Powerups are fine. Quit your griping, and petition for me to be given a New Chevrolet Corvette by the dev's, for saving them time.

You should see a doctor, he can easily cure your symptoms by pulling the stick out of your ass. =)


Ranged users can get Krayt Tissues which have been reported as going over +100 damage and -.7 speed.. Yea, that's fair that we get zilch to match that(They get feed mechs, so do we.. But oddly I've never found a melee feed mech with more than 5 wound %..and that's it)


Ranged users can get weapon powerups that give +33% Max Damage/Min Damage/Speed .. we can't. Yea, that's fair. We can reduce HAM, they can boost the entire gun.


So with a krayt tissue and a +33% powerup just on a krayt tissue you are capable of easily getting +133 Max Damage.. where as we can get none.


Look at that and say that's fair.

ok u say melee weapons would not make sense cause making a temp mod would nt be possible



kinetic damage powerup


ok have you ever used a knife in real life??


they get blunt dont they and you use a sharpening tool wam theres ur damage powerup.



kinetic speed sword powerup


A small mod on the handle or balde of a weapon which shifts the gravitional pull to make the weapon lighter there for easier to swing which would also reduce ham costs

Ya. It's called item decay. Use a repair kit to put the edge back on.


Now give me a real example, of something you can replace on a real life melee object, that would make it do more damage?


Spikes on the end of a club? Sure. But we got no clubs.


How can you have a drop in mod, for a sword, that makes it do more damage?


And as for the ranged krayt +100 stuff, whatever. Rifleman can't use Krayt tissue on T21s. I'm sure there's lots of other issues where krayt tissue can't be used. That is also an issue of weapon creation, not powerups.

Does a knife decay if you dont use it? No. Rust maybe.


Does your knife in SWG decay if you don't use it? No. Obviously not rust. We're talking DULL BLADES.


Melee items only decay from USE and dying. Hence, repair kits.

And yes, decayed items and armor have their stats lowered. It seems with one of the more recent patches that it's not as big a deal as it was before, but I've had stats drop 50% or so due to decay.
