Thread: Bothan Bola carbine stats!

Didnt expect it to be kinetic but it was a golden oppurtunity for the devs to put one in. As for the clearly being slated for energy it was also supposed to be level 40. Things changed no reason the damage type couldnt of been altered as well.

Yeah I don't understand the CL change.....we sure didn't need another CL54 Energy Carbine around.....
QFE
i dont blame the posters here, i blame the devs
but
i dont understand why anyone would bust their a$$ and work for days to get a looted weapon that has stats less than one that can be crafted. its kinda like working harder to get an inferior weapon. yes, these items look good in a house, but how many people actually go in our houses or actually care what we got anyway?

Not everyone can afford the best of the best weapons. While many of us who post here are SWG veterans and are thus, for the most part, economically well-off, several players cannot afford these kinds of capped weapons, so the Bola carbine, for all intents and purposes, is a pretty damn good loot reward.
Besides, if all quests gave uber loot, youd have people farming them with new accounts, and the economy would run to the pits.

Also worth mentioning...some of us just like doing quests. Getting a rather good carbine just sweetens the deal.
EDIT: And I didn't need to work for days to get this carbine...did the 4 chapters of the quest that are currently available in about 2-3 hours, tops.

Do you start Quest 1/4 from the same NPC in Bestine? I missed the launch of these quests I believe, and would very much like to go through all four (as opposed to just skipping to the last one.)

I don't believe you can skip ahead to the last chapter. I also don't know who the Imperials talk to, but you'll be talking to the same guy for chapters 1-3, and then he'll hand you off to another fellow (in Restuss for Imperials, Narmle for Rebels).

since its CL54 carbine, im guessing it has the same caps as any other CL54 carbine, so 1063dmg ismost likly the cap, and a full dmg slice would bring the max damage to 1026, with space left over for a lvl1 speed slice (which would drop the speed down to 2.21)and lvl 1 crit chance slice
so final Full Damage Sliced/Non-Puped stats would be:
2.21 Speed
513-1026 damage
85 sac
348.98 DPS
