Hey guys no I dont want to sell the above item I just want to get your opinion. I currently have a +8 Carbine Speed tape and was very excited to get it from a close friend. Minutes later I had someone telling me that if I was a master Carbiner that this tape would be useless as my speed would already been capped. This went against the logic of doing both Carbineer and BH Carbine. He mentioned a formula where you multiply you weapons speed by your carbine attibute speed as a decimal. You then take this number and subtract it from the weapon speeds. The number can never be smaller that 1.0.
If you guys could straighten me out and explain or correct the above statements.
Thanks,
Gato-Sylla

the calculation is
carbine speed(lets say 4.0) * modifier if you're firing a special(lets say you're doing full auto single 2, so 1.7) * your speed level(say you have about 40)/100. so in that example it would be
4 * 1.7 * 40/100
4 * 1.7 * .6 = 4.08
so with +40 speed you'd fire one FAS2 from an average laser carbine about every 4.1 seconds. now at master carbineer(assuming you dont have master marksman or bounty hunter) you have a total of +60 speed, which would take that down to one FAS2 every 2.7 seconds. adding a +8 skilltape to that would bring it down to 2.1. add a speed powerup to that carbine for a 30% speed reduction and you'll be spamming FAS2 out of that sucker every 1.5 seconds. use that attachment

gah! oh to be a veteran and edit that post...ok, i meant carbine speed * special move modifier * (100 - your speed mods/100)....so it would be 4.0 * 1.7 * (100 - 40/100), which is what would give you 4.0 * 1.7 * .6 
sorry bout that
sorry bout that

As a master carbineer w/o BH carbine, you don't max out on speed. In no way. So if you don't wanna do BH carbine, that would be a brilliant attachment.

In fact with my +25 Carbine Speed Comp Suit I still don't cap most of my KRAYT Carbines unless I have powerups.....
