thats not bad, i see most DXR-6's with stats like that some may be in 300s. i have a DXR-6 that has a max in the 400s so i use that, but if you have some cash to spend i would look for a better DXR-6. just because you can get better damage and stuff.
Just my two cents

I always use my slug thrower on lesser PvE, sounds mean on a 5.1 surround

If by good you mean..
It looks good? Yes.
It sounds good? Yes.
Its damage is good? Sorta.
You can get better mileage from a crafted DXR6 with an equal slice. It's a nice weapon, but it should not replace a DXR6 in any way or form, aside from perhaps aesthetics.

You can make 10 of them into a very nice triangle arrangement on the wall of your house...looks good.

Since when can you loot slugthrowers? I have never heard of one being looted, just people getting them as a reward for Nym's themepark....

I am sure that is what the poster meant.....this is a standard themepark reward that is the same....each slugthrower is identical and with the new cert at Novice Carbineer, quite useless now.

They suck, DXR6's go for much higher damage and can be made with TONS more accuracy. DXR6's are cheap as well.

As a low to regular level weapon, they're ok. Slightly higher minimum when compared to other carbs, decent max with a good damage slice. Light AP and acid damage definately help out alot too. But the truth is, no regular weapon is going to compare to the damage of an exceptional or Krayt carbine, whether DXR-6 or Laser. It's a good, cheapoffhand weapon. I take one with me when I go hunting just in case I run into Night Sisters.
If nothing else, it will do until you can buy an exceptional or Krayt carbine. Probably not going to win too many duels with it tho.
