Thread: my 1.5 million dollar carbine
some people just prefer damage slices for their play style...i think a 1.5mil investment is worth being disappointedif he wanted a dmg slice...no "NOOB" aspect about it. something to be said 'bout having 5% dps less, but also replacing powerups 30% less & having the weapon decay 30% slower...

How is the min dmg 190? Is that with powerup?
I got a sweet elite carbine krayt enhanced for only 100k on a forum auction got a 23% dmg slice and it is now 205-488 after powerup.

i had a pair of elites that landed speed slices which REALLY disappointed me...came out to 129-239 @2.1 & 129-239 @2.2. i recouped my losses by selling to a non-attachment carbineer...but still, 168-311 @3.0 woulda been much nicer for me...
on the plus side, better polonium spawned on Flurry so kicked the dmg up a bit & dropped speed -.2 so my next shot will be alot nicer base stats.

Your BH opinion is SEVERELY biased because you speed cap everything under the sun....and if somebody's playing style leads them to damage only slices, well that just means they don't like to kill things as fast LOL LOL LOL
And I was going to quote and reply to this NOOB's response but the Moderator took care of it too quick LOL LOL LOL And yes you are a NOOB, look at your post count.....
Either this guy is a BH with a +25 Carbine Speed shirt, which is a total WASTE LOL, or my comment on +85 Carbine Speed (from his +25 shirt) is absolutely correct and his cursing and name calling shows histotal lack of knowledge of the game mechanics or ability to read a STICKY post.....
The 1.5 mil dollar (credit) Elite started out around 3.8 or 3.9 speed (actual firing speed of 1.4) but if he is a Carbineer with a +25 Carbine Speed shirt it needs to be a 2.6 weapon to speed cap, which it sliced down to 2.5. And we all know from the STICKY post above that a speed slice does more DPS until you hit the speed cap.
Cursing and complaining and name calling about a PERFECT slice is really strange indeed.

lol, i'm not a BH...haven't been since the first 2months after launch. then i realized it was a waste of skill points 'til they fixed missions...now i realize it's a waste of skill points 'til they do a complete overhaul...unless of course if you're into jedi tracking.
as far as speed > dmg...like i said, some people might prefer sacrificing 5% dps to have to slap on powerups 30% less & have weapon decay 30% slower...there are justifiable reasons some might prefer dmg sliced. i can plug numbers into an equation as competently as any ape w/ a calculator, but they still don't factor in preference of play.
and last i checked...post count means nothing of someone's intelligence or ability at a profession, i know many people that have read the forums for months & never post, i wouldn't call them a "NOOB" if they came on here disappointed by a slice...we all need to b*tch occasionally.
