Thread: which is the best overall carbine to use
Greetings. How did he get the min damage to 98? First of all the gun is sliced for damage. The base damage was probably around 60-300 give or take a few.
The gun was probably made with a stock and scope, which is why the hams are high. It's also likely that thecomponents' or gun's hamwas experimented on some since most of the stock+scope's I've seen have about 15+ more ham cost than that one. It's also possible that the gun has a stock or scope but not both, and a damage slice and a min damage powerup that also has a secondary ham cost bonus, etc. There are a few variations to get the min damage that high, but judging from the ham there's definately a stock and/or scope involved.
Personally I only use a laser with stock and scope for thehuge damage. The ham costs are a hefty even by carbine standards, but the damage is unbeatable. I only use it situationally though (pvp mostly) and almost always down a neutron pixie and sunburn first. With this combo the ham costs are pretty much irrelevant, and your damage output goes through the roof.
For everyday fighting I stick with a dh17, ee3, dxr6, or e11 depending on the situation, resists, etc.
