Carbineer Archive

I never heard of this carbine. What are the stats?

It's actually very nice, I don't use mine because it's not as good as my DXR6 but it is definitely the best non-crafted Carbine in the game... I'm at work adn can get the stats posted later, but you can find them by checking some of the other threads...

I'd recommend anyone wantingot do the missions, at least read the stories presented by the characters instead of just getting the carbine and running like recommended above... Great Star Wars storyline... can't wait till Space Expansion adds to it... ^_^

4.0 Speed, 36/62/32 HAM, 103-217 dmg, 16% wound, -10 @ 0, +0 @ 28, - 60 at 64.

Is this a kinetic damage based Carbine, If not which one is? I tried finding one today with no luck.

what planet are the droid cave, research lab, and gas mine on? i know nym's stronghold is on lok.

maybe i just need to learn how to understand coordinates? are they specific to each planet or can the same coords be on different planets?

thanks.

This is an Acid damage Carbine, and all the waypoints are located on Lok aswell.

So is acid damage good enough for those crap stats? My carbine is 46-344 at 3.6 speed with 20.3% wound. So should I switch for that one because of the acid damage?

In general, a well made DXR6 will be superior to the Nym's carbine in just about every way. They both do acid damage, the DXR6 does more damage per second and has lower HAM costs. However, the Nym's carbine isn't bad, it's free if you do the quests, and it requires absolutely no skill (not even novice marksman) to wield properly. Therefore, if you wanted to grind from 0/0/0/0 marksman to 0/0/4/0 marksman quickly, you could get a Nym's carbine and start with a high quality weapon.

heck i like the nym slug for its looks and sound not its stats if the thing was only 120 dam i still use it this wep is by far the best looking and sounding wep in this game

Really? Then I'll make sure to pick one up for my collection

So, which is better, my carbine or a well-made DXR8 (sp?)?

Yeah, I agree the Slugthrower is good for grinding low Carbine ranks... After you can use DXR6, hang it on your wall... As for if your Carbine is better than a DXR6, it depends on how you play... I like my DXR6 over anything else... My stats are:

Light Armor Piercing

3.1 speed

143-277 attack

20.3% wound

-20/+2/-80 @ 0/22/64

21/45/21 HAM costs

It was sliced for speed, and I usually use powerups with 33% Max Damage, 16% Min Damage, 8% Action Cost... Very nice if you ask me...

thread is very helpful..thank you. one question..anyone know the respawn timer in the caves? i was at the droid cave..got the disk..went out side the cave the way i went in and waited a few minutes..went back in and the gate was still up and no part. i know the NPC's respawn real fast. was just wondering about the components to. I was wanting to get 2 of these rifles myself and try to get one sliced for speed and the other for dmg. thanks.

Some people may get pissed at me for postin this but I had a really really hard time finding out what the hell to do in order to get this **edit** nice Carbine. I am posting this for people who like me were un-able to find the three different locations (spread VERY far apart) to find the different quest items. If you want to find these for yourself, just hit the back button.

Before I start - a quick thank you to RAragon for the exact locations of these, I located two of them without but needed his guide for the gas mine. I made this guide after searching for the computer hard-drive in the Research lab for tooo long =). Thanks bud.

Eh, one more thing before I start. I have -5000 Nym faction, it is VERY simple to do this quest especially by just following these instructions..so let us begin..

NOTE: Before you grab the items from the containers, I ADVISE you double click the container instead of using the radial menu and opening it. This is how I did it - and got two of each item, allowing me to get TWO of the carbines in the end.

1. FIRST - Head to these locations and pick up the items.

Droid Cave: -3027 -681. Here, you must get to the end of the cave, talk with the Hacker, and awnser the questions they ask (Orange, 720, and Sir). The gate will come up and you can get in there, double click the droid and you have the droid part you need.

Research Lab: 902 -4193: Here you need to get a computer hard drive and an Imperial gernade. The harddrive is in on a Computer system in the maze type room (walk into the first large room w/ the scientists and take a left, it'll be nice to know it's in this room as opposed to runnin through teh whole place tons of times). The gernades are in a storage compartment in a smaller room connected to two hallways. An aggro is the room and should aggro you once you open it, but he is a one hit kill =)

Gas Mine: 6467 3885: At the bottom you'll find an air filteration unit..double clicky and get the gas item.

2. SECOND PART - the easy part is over, here is the easier part. Head to Nym's Stronghold. In the back you will find Nym's palace..house..whatever. It should be easy to find Nym. Give "Jenkins" your Droid's Memory Chip. Give your Gas to Kole. And the Imperial Gernade + harddrive to go Nym. After you give Nym those two, walla. You have your Nym's Slug-thrower Carbine. Have fun.
