Carbineer Archive

Hiya, My alt is MBH/MCarb/CM4000. To tell you the truth i have more fun with him than i have with main who is a full templated Jedi.

For PvP i'd recommend a Kinetic Carbine. Most of the people PvPing are using Energy layered armor with low Kinetic resist. For instance, i'd say the most common armor used by die hard pvper are either RIS ~7k Energy ~3.5k Kinetic or Recon armor wich is Energy layered.

Why a Kinetic weapon? Because it goes through PSG's and like i said above most PvPer use Energy layered armor thus making a Kinetic weapon very effective. Even if your foe is wearing primus layered armor (ie 6.5k Energy/Kinetic resist), your Kinetic weapon would still do more damage if he is using a PSG.

Nym's Slug-Thrower! This weapon is fantastic, highest min damage carbine it does wonder in PvP. There is also the Czerka carbine. If you are into collecting your own components to have your favorite Weaponsmith craft it, then you are into Gorax hunting! You can use their Bones to craft Kinetic weaponry.

For the -all purpose- carbines, Elite & MarkII are what you have to look for. Your carbine is very nice, the most you can get on carbine are 430ish-1063 damage 1.90ish speed after a 12% slice and 60ish acc bonus if you are lucky enough to have some pre-nerf scopes along with 73sac.

I believe SAC pup is the way to go if you are into PvP, it always end up in a KD orgy and KD recovery is action heavy.

For the CA&AA i'd recommend aiming for +Carbine Accuracy and +General Ranged Accuracy first then look for speed as you'll notice speed tapes are not working at the moment. Unless i'm proved wrong, no one is hitting at their modded speed but base speed on the weapon.

I thank you for your wonderful advice. I'll look into the slugthrower.

(If anyone else has anything elseit is welcome, hehe.)

One of my alts pvp's (both on jedi as missions and against other players) with a 718 max damage Sluggy, and it is VERY effective, its the relatively high Min and the ridiculous elemental that make this weapon the weapon of choice. In order to make even a compettitive Czerka, you will need a set of 6 gorax shards of atleast 145 or more max damage ($$$$$$$$ and very hard to loot) i recently made one with some 136's and got 900 (exactly) max damage on a czerka, it was still gimped in comparison to my Sluggy, and the SAC wasnt conciderably better either (as shards have no sac bonus)


All in all, your E11 is fine for PvE, for pvp, start doing the nym's thing till you get one with over 710 max damage and atleast 82 SAC, and you'll be set. good luck to ya, and for the love of christ, ADK that stuff!

Q and J's Daddy. Valera's my babies momma.

i have alot of speed AAs and their so-so i mean i only have like 2 of them on atm i have lots more and added up to a total of like 19 and that reduced my speed from like 1.56 to 1.36 and im not even master of course the evil carb has a 12% speed slice so base speed is 1.98

Thanks for all of the assistance. One last question if I may...

I just spent 3.5million on this Nym's:

Nym's Slugthrower Carbine

Speed: 2.2

Damage: 348 - 695

Elemental Damage: 169

SAC: 83

Should I ADK it?

You shouldn't have bought it. The last leg of Nym's themepark is infinately repeatable. Allowing to get a Slugthrower as many times as you want, until you get a good one.

*shrugs* Oh well. A few million isn't anything to me anyhow.

But should it be ADK'ed?

Well, I let you decide, I believe the stat caps for it are as follows.

Speed - 2.25
Damage - 360-720
Elemental - 175
SAC - 81

So practically mine is so close to the cap (Speed is capped and SAC very close) in ess'ence it might as well be.

no its not u have 25 point till dmg cap and 12 elemental till capp, thats to much..go to ut trade forums and post ur looking for a nym with the stats capped, i payed 10 mil for mine but i consider it a bargain....maybe theyll nerf the nym quest and ull go downd cryng u aint got 1 when u could..i would not adk that..its really easy to find 1 better for lower price...thats my 2 cents
