Carbineer Archive

Hey im just wondering if this carbine is any good, i havent seen it ANYWHERE, im on the Tarquinas server in AH. Does anyone know of anyone that i can purchase this gun from? Also... is it worth buying? Can someone post the default damage and attack speed of this weapon? Please... Thanks.

Guns are pretty much server specific, so hearing about guns on other servers is largley useless, because they have different resources with different qualities. So they may have an excellent Laser Carbine, while your server does not.

That said most guns seem to follow inherint traits. Such as the laser carbine haveing a large damage range,and armor piercing is always the same.

Starstrider just got the resources to make a DXR6, so I went ahead and purchased one, because I was tired of using my E11 since launch.

Its stats are 4.5 speed, 103 -158 damage, 28/48/20ish HAM costs. It does acid damage and has a light AP(so AR1). The fact that is does Acid is probably its sole good factor, and that it does higher min damage than I've seen on an E11 Carbine or EE3. Acid is nice because most things dont seem to resist acid, although there are some that do. Compared to energy resists, its less common. Only problem with my gun is its slow and has expensive HAM costs.. then again what carbine doesnt.

and it sounds cool too.

Hey, thats more information than i expected... thx man.
As of now i am using a laser carbine that is 30-238 3.1 speed, i love it!
im sure a sliced version of the DXR6 would be a kick ass weapons as well!

I've bought a couple DXR6s on Valcyn, and they're getting better and better. Mine were bought stock 3.9, 99-155. One got a speed slice to 3.1, and the other a damage slice to 118-183. I use the slower one a bit more since my speed mods are fine. It's pretty nice hitting for consistent 230-240 standard attacks and 600-800 legshot2s.

The only problem with this gun now is that it's bugged. It hits fine against AR1 mobs but gives no bonus against unarmored mobs. So I use it for AR1 mobs with acid vulnerability, but if the mob is unarmored I'd rather get that massive bonus from the laser carbine (unless it has like 40% energy resists).

It is a very good gun. It has AR1, decent damage, and most importantly a close ideal range. So, when you're running into melee you actually hit!!! And, if you're not running into melee. Well, then you're just a sissy sitting in the back row and should just use a Laser,Eliteor E11.

bah i didn't know the ar value was bugged! That makes the gun useless. If the enemy is vulnerable to acid, it has 0 ar in effect and thus should take 50% more damage. That is why i bought the gun.

If the ar worked i think it would be a very nice gun. Max damage is a little big lower than laser carbine, but it actually has a pretty good min damage which is nice. protection against acid damage is rare on npcs, creatures and players and this means that the ar 1 it has should give a 50% damage bonus against most things.

Laser carbine is nice, but a lot of monsters have high energy resist and even a 50% damage bonus isn't going to be that great when they resist 75% of your damage.

Heya Dozza, I play on Tarq as well and just picked up a DXR6 today, not sure who else sells em but I got mine from Madar on Naboo. Can check under weapons vendors for him or email me in game and I will send ya his WP. The one I bought was 100-155, 3.7 though I got a crappy 15% speed slice on it. Same time I got a DH17 and got it sliced and got a 25% speed slice on it. Got a nice little carbine version of the scout blaster now, sliced stats of 66-166, 1.8 .

I recently searched for a good Carbine as I got to Carbines IV and now I am going to Novice and I need a better carbine....

I was looking after some Laser or DXR6,can somebody tell me if DXR6 is useful in PvE? I don't know mobs much so I don't know if they have acid armor or energy armor...

I want one of those,and no other.

lots of things are vulnerable to acid. so i carry one, along with a laser and ee3 (actually, i've replaced my dxr6 with nym's slug thrower, for now. dxr6 got a lousy slice and was too slow, haven't replaced it yet).

i think it really depends on the resources that your server has available at the time (or what weaponsmiths saved from previous shifts). i don't know what's involved with making a dxr6. never got into weapon smith.

I founf DXR6 with about 120-180 dmg,3.7 spd for 45k,is it good ?

Nym's Slug thrower has Acid damage? What are the stats of it ?

sounds expensive to me

I sell mine for 9k unsliced with pretty much the same stats as that one
