I think its better than instead of being a Kinetic, IT WOULD BE FAR MORE BENFITIAL IF IT WAS STUN DAMAGE!



For those of you who arent scouts or rangers and cannot see all the protections and vulnerabilities creatures have, most of them have vulnerability or low resistance on STUN damage. Furthermore, Composite armor, the armor par excelence fro PVP is also vulnerable to stun, which means that not even the armor rating of light applies when a STUN weapon is used against it.


So I REALLY THINK WE BETTER ASK FOR IT TO BE REMADE STUN instead of kinetic. It actually makes sense, a sludge can stun a target!

While that's true, we ahve more of a case to have it changed to kinetic damage, since it's a slugthrower.


I PM'd TH on this. I'll let you all know if I gt a response.

Speak of the devil, I got a response on changing this to kinetic damage:


Thunderheart - "Its coming. The problem is part of a larger balance issue - - we're balancing the whole weapon system and improving the HAM system as we speak."


Sounds promising, since a kinetic carbine with those damage stats wouldn't be unbalancing. He mentioned a time frame for a follow-up post, but I don't want to have people holding his feet to the fire on it if he misses his target date.

God it would be nice to have a kinetic damage weapon. Even pistoleers have the striker pistol (even though it is a terrible gun). The Slug Thrower is just as worthless as RIS... nice house decoration.
