This is perhaps one of the best DoT Carbines I have ever seen.....

DH17 Mind Poison Carbine

Wow dude that thing is no joke. Not worth 25 million, but would still be nice to use. Imagine full auto area 2 with that hehe

BTW, here is the Price Check on it.....Chilastra's economy is so borked/exploited.....

This is borderline a "Trade Forum" post, but I felt this gun was so unique that everybody should see it....

Wow I thought our Gorath economy was bad. That gun would probably fetch 5-6 million at most on Gorath.

I know a few Bounty Hunters who'd drop a good 5 million on it. Not that our economy is all that borked, but we do have some hardcore Jedi Hunters.

Thing is that most Jedi, if they are smart, will have the purification line in healer which basically makes poison a waste on them.

The idea isn't to kill them with the DOT, but to make them waste Force points on healing it. Hitting them with a new DOT within a second after they heal it takes its toll.

Remember, most Jedi hunts aren't a blitzkrieg, more like a war of attrition.

Good point. Very true. I also noticed in the last patch or two that when I am on my Jedi there is a longer delay in cures/heals. It is a good 4-5 second delay now which can be rough.

Nice gun...but it doesn't compare to the 1800 str. mind poison carbine that used to be on Valcyn. It had over 30k uses and 200% potency. Luckily it failed upon repair, and the devs confiscated it because the owner was continuing to use it in pvp despite it being broken (the dot still worked but it wasn't supposed to).

I wonder where they keep it now

Perhaps not, butthe fact that you'd have to be an MCM or darn close to use such poisons.. which could be resumed with only one weapon.. gives this carbine its value.

People pay greatly to free up SP.. it's why some of us Carbineers spend millions on tapes in order to avoid the BH line, really.

25 million is a bit steep for any non-fire DoT, though. Still, I'd kill for such a weapon.

Albeit 25 million is a bit steep, you will likely find someone willing to pay that amount for it. High Str Mind Poison carbines aren't exactly common.

EDIT: I noticed the certified section said no, is this one of the DH17's no one is certified to use, if it was then that would hilarious ... net worth 6K on the bazaar to a fool.
