Carbineer Archive

My main carbine is around that much max damage, and it really all depends on your accuracy vs. your opponent's defense. For example, now that I had to do part of Jabba's themepark to get my AV-21 schematic, all the opponents on the Corvette were being damaged perhaps at about 750 per shot, whereas Valarian's goons on Tatooine were being hit for around 2000 per shot.

My list of carbines (link in sig) has the cap on a few of the carbines. People will tell you that damage is the most important but it depends on how you play the game. Damage is nice if all you shoot is low end mobs, as soon as you get into Krayt/Gorax/Corvette territory though you'll find you need to use a lot more action and a weapon with a high SAC will be utterly wasted as you'll get off a few shots before having to resort to ranged attack

Get a high damage gun that's cheap for hitting low level mobs if you're camping spawns but I'd look at getting a carbine with as low a SAC as you can and in the 950+ damage range. Personally I use a 991 Max damage carbine with the SAC pupped down to 57 can spam special hits all day and never worry about action getting low.
