Thread: Carbine Special Modifiers
Why did you report WildShot 2 as the same dmg as FullAutoArea 2 in the table, but then say that WildShot 2 doesn't do as much damage?
Which is it?
I have no idea what you are talking about. Both WildShot2 and FullAutoArea2 do the exact same DPS and it is listed in the spreadsheet that way.
FullAutoSingle2 does the most DPS until you hit the speed cap and then CripplingShot takes over that distinction.....IF you can hit the speed cap. I use +21 Carbine Speed in my armor and all Krayt Carbines with powerups to hit the cap without BH.
Check the little character icon in your targets HAM display (the stick figure with the rifle) this is you current targets posture either standing, kneeling, or prone. I don't always get the message that "the attack failed" and I sometimes get a posture change from this shot.
It is easiest to see when a charging Mob suddenly stops after firing this shot.

Here are some damage per second and HAM cost per damage point numbers that I generated based on your results....
FA2 1.7 5.5 1.6 2.0 0.5 3.24 0.49 0.62 0.15
BS1 2.0 6.0 1.4 1.1 0.5 3.00 0.47 0.37 0.17
BS2 2.5 6.0 1.6 1.1 0.5 2.40 0.67 0.46 0.21
SS1 2.0 1.0 1.4 1.1 0.5 0.50 2.80 2.20 1.00
SS2 2.5 1.0 1.6 1.1 0.5 0.40 4.00 2.75 1.25
WS1 2.0 3.5 1.4 1.1 0.5 1.75 0.80 0.630.29
WS2 2.5 4.5 1.6 1.1 0.5 1.80 0.89 0.61 0.28
CRIP 2.5 7.5 0.8 1.8 0.8 3.00 0.27 0.60 0.27
FAA1 2.0 3.5 1.4 2.0 0.5 1.75 0.80 1.14 0.29
FAA2 2.5 4.5 1.6 2.0 0.5 1.80 0.89 1.11 0.28
LS2 1.5 3.0 0.5 1.2 1.2 2.00 0.25 0.60 0.60
LS3 1.5 3.0 0.5 1.3 1.2 2.00 0.25 0.65 0.60
CS1 2.3 3.0 0.7 1.1 0.7 1.30 0.54 0.84 0.54
I put a damage mod of 1 in for the unknown scatter shots in order to avoid the div/0 error.
Looks like FA2 is the best DPS, and HAM wise it is a harder call. Leg shots or Crip shot have the lowest HAM per point of damage cost. Comparing both DPS and HAM/DAM I would say that Crip shot is probably our best attack. Can't wait to see some new nymbers come in after publish 7.

This is much more practical for everybody that has Excel or can view Excel within Internet Explorer. I have a simpler version there as well for basic calculations:
