Carbineer Archive

never taken the time to really look but last time I checked (before geting novice carbineer) I was hittig for about 400 damage with leg shot 2, needless to say I've been looking to upgrade my gun (currently a sliced laser carbine, speed was increased).

With my 230damage laser, I've gotten as high as 1740 with CripplingShot. Only had this skill for a couple days, so my sampling isn't that bad.

From my calculations and those of others, CripplingShot seems to have a 7.0-8.0 modifier to the max damage. Meaning, 7 or 8times the max damage of your weapon (7.5 being my best).

And armor levels and resistances have nothing to do with the damages on your screen. Those are raw numbers and you will see those consistantly on every mob in the game. This means that the damage you do on your screen is NOT what the mob takes.

falk, there is debate over which number is correct, and in my experience, the damage chat spam is raw dmg, before any armor/piercing multipliers come into effect, whil the floaty, is the finalized dmg. Why they have it come out two ways is beyond me though.

Ack, sorry I was NOT clear. I don't have "floaty" damage turnedon, so I meant the damage in the "combat chat" box. Sorry for the confusion and thanks for pointing it out.

So to reiterate, the damage you see in your chat boxes is the raw damage.

bump - - thanks for the info people! you should continue to post here with your highest amount of damage you see yourself do. helps us know where we stand. thanks

Am I missing something ?!?

How can someone hit for 2300 on a regular basis ?!?

I have Carbine IV on the BH skill tree and 70% of the carbine tree filled and I only hit for 200-300 and a max of 1700 with cripple shot.

I have a very good laser carbine as well.

Is there something in your stat pool that u have adjusted ?

Some people are reporting numbers floating on top of the mobs head and some are reporting ones in the combat tab, so there's confusion

Your 1700 damage is probably from the combat tab?

Darants, what damage carbine do you have? It's pretty easy to get a laser that approaches 300+ damage when you splice it.

And I think we should be counting the damage that is done in the Chat Box since that damage is still valid, especially on unarmored mobs with no resists.

I've hit 2000+ in the combat tab with crippling shot.

Darants: If you start the attack with a special that is designed to do damage, not cripple or knock him/her down, you seem to do MUCH more damage. (i do at least). on a normal auto-attack i may do like 200-400, but on specials i can do anywhere from 1000-2000 normally. depends on posture and if the MOB you fight has defence i guess.

um...bump? yeah bump is good. i want this to be up to 100 posts

I usually do about 3/4 of my Health and Action bars, a tad less in Mind.

Oh, I'm sorry. Were you talking about how much my Carbine hurts me or my target?

it's sad that this post isn't funnier.i must use a carbine. i'm sure that any ranged combat class (melee are an entirely different breed, and have weird thought processess that include being willing to let someone close enought to cut their head off with an axe.../shudder) other than commando would piss themselves from laughing at it.
