Thread: New Weapons Questions

I have some questions about the new weapons. Seeing that most of them are quested for, what happens when they reach zero condition? Are the quests repeatable? After a while are weaponsmiths going to be able to craft them?


The weapons are pretty cool, and I'd hate to see it come to a point where they are so rare that they cost millions in the galaxy trade forums.


I guess the same can be asked of the armor. I really like my clone armor, but it's taking a beating.



"Basically, once you see the inner workings of the Dev team you realize their game model is really just grind and stall. Make the players grind and grind so they keep paying and when there are problems stall stall stall so they keep paying waiting for fixes. Really...all the cores that quit recently are the ones that have figured this out."

I had the same thought earlier today.
Wish I knew the answer to that one, but I don't know.

There's a new feature called 'refurbishing' in the works. I don't know anything about the details, but the gist of it is that smiths will be able to do something with zero condition weapons.

Maybe at some point the will be craftble, no you cant redo the quest when condition reach 0...

NIce to know, thanks.


Other 'top tier' weapons don't slice that well all the time for sure.....most 1-2% at best in the same range of DPS. But the Devs could have different code for loot weapon slices I suppose.....

Holy smokes, you got 5% damage, that is actually way too high. Slicing isn't borked at all if you would check out the CU Docs and Smuggler Proposal it would make more sense.


Basically high-end weapons get reduced slicing for BALANCE reasons....you should feel lucky it wasn't 1-2% where a high-end weapon like that should slice.....you have a sweet Proton Carbine.
