My main carbine is a Krayt Elite with imperial stocks. It's about 150-240 in damage at 1.6 in speed with very low HAM costs (for a carbine).


It was made before the PSG's were fixed and now I really regret not making a DXR6 instead as I had the tissues for it


Don't have any more Imperial stocks and they're hard to get nowadays, not to mention the large batch of krayt tissue needed. Looks like I'm going to have to hope the elite manages anyway...

well brilyn i think you missed the point unless you were just trying to be a smartass but the point remains that in SWGpistols are shooting faster than fully automatic carbines. Basically to balance the game they have to but they shouldnt. the truth is there are certain pistols that pack more of a punch per shot than an smg like an mp5 but you could still kill more with the mp5 so as far as speeds go it makes sense in the game that the carbine is slower than the pistols unless you want to give pistols the higher damage and i dont think us underpowered carbineer want that since their pistols can already match some of our carbines. Speed should be only slightly reduced but ham costs should be strongly reduced.

No.


My point was you are comparing radically different things and then complaining about it.


A Desert Eagle is a very slow firing handgun. You then compared it to an AK47. This is a dumb comparison.



There are several RL handguns that have extremely high rates of fire.


The MAC10 being one, a Scorpian (I think it's called) is another. There's a multitude of them.




The only thing your example illustrates is how much RL does NOT equate to SWG.

We aren't talking about MAC pistols.


Pistols in the starwars universe are slow semi-auto blasters. There isn't really such a thing as automatic in starwars. Look at the stormtroopers in the movies. There E-11s aren't exactly as fast as a real-life machine gun but they're atleast 3 times faster then the pistols in Starwars

Carbines aren't Machine guns (ala the M16 and such).




let's ditch the RL examples, because they're not productive....

Carbines are SMGs.. close enough. There still automatic weaponry. Ak-74 isa Carbine. The Americans used a shorten verison of the M16 and it's a Carbine.
