With the upcoming fix, I decided to pick up carbines. I did nyms missions a while back and got his carbine and since it doesn't have any certification requirements I went up all four tree's in marksman rather quickly hunting mountain worts and mountain squills. I've looked around on a few vendors and saw a couple of other ones, but the min damage is really low. Could just be that there isn't exactly a high demand for high end carbines at the moment but I'm not entirely sure.


For the marksman line, nyms carbine has been more then usefull for me, my question tho is which is better?

for the marksman line Nym's is great. i used it myself a while back


the problems with the Nym's are the high HAM cost, low speed, and low Max damage.


even with the fixes coming for Carbineer, you will find weapon selection limited, HAM costs high and weapons rather scarse (you will need to contact Master Weaponsmiths to build you your guns.) you will not find the proliferation of weapons like you will find T21s and FWG5s.


i would suggest you get a good Elite carbine, a good EE3 carbine and a good DX6 at LEAST for your character

I own 3..I completed the park and got my 1st and bought 2 more..with a good slice & power up there pretty good....


If you want to get the best from ne carbine the key is getting buffed...I dont worry about the slower speed, with my speed mods, i cant fire specials pretty darn fast.....

Nym's slugthrower blows. It can't compare with any of the good DXR6's foating around now. And with the next publish they're putting the slugthrower certification up the tree a bit, so no more newbies carrying around a high end carbine.


I personally found the medium armor piercing on the laser carbine to be a nice feature. It's also always fun whenI check the combat spamand seea 4k hit with a laser. I've been looking for an action/min damage powerup for it, but I don't think they can be made.

A "Lightened Grip of Aiming" will give you action/min. Ask for it by name.
