I have some really good krayt tissues i'd like to toss in a carbine. I have 7, so pretty much leaves my options open. I was just wondering what you all thought. The carbine will be used for pvp only.


Should I go with a dxr6, or laser??


Any suggestions will help. Thanks.

with 7 tissues you can either do 2 lasers, or 1 laser 1 EE3 (which wouold be nice). A drx6 will take 5 tissues +1 for schema (I am a WS/Carbineer so I know) so that would leave one for a grinding dh17 which you could sell.


But if yo uare keeping for you go with either two laser (better chance for a DAM slice) or the 1 and 1. What are the stats on teh tissue?

I'd make two laser carbines out of the tissues, that would exactly use all seven. You'll have good chances to get a good slice when you have two.



If you aren't a bh you should pay attention to the speed. A carbineer without any speed attachments or fs speed needs a 1.0 speed weapon to cap every special (except chargeshot2), a carbineer with +25 speed attachments needs a 2.7 speed weapon to cap every special (except chargeshot2). Use form fitted stocks to reach this speed, they are so great, they lower the weapon speed by about 0,8.

I would go with 2 Lasers as well.


For now it is just as easy to destroy a PSG as it is work around it with Acid Damage. But that assumes you can stand there and take a beating while you wear out the PSG

I am gonna agree with everyone else here, the 2 laser's is probably your best bet, it will give you decent odds of getting a good slice. Of course is you already have a decent kryat laser i would go with the DXR-6, but then again i have soft spot for that gun

Thanks for the advice all, i think they are something like 50dmg, -.3s....something along those lines. I'll let you know how they come out.

I'd go for the krayted DXR6, on my server they are extremely hard to come around, as opposed to a laser carb, which seems to be more available, imo

They should be around 360 max damage unsliced. If you are only a Master Carbineer (without the BH line), make sure you get them crafted without stocks. It's very important that you bring down the speed as much as you can, as base speed tissues (-0.3) would only bring the weapon speed to 3.5 or 3.6 with a regular stock.








Actually, you need Imp Stocks to lower the speed then you can go for a damage slice


And yes I am enjoying my collection of 19 Imp Stocks

7 tissues should go into 2 lasers. If you get a good slice on the first you can sell the second for a million $$$ or close to it. If you get a bad slice, try again, and sell the bad slice one for $250k ir so. (As long as they are good tissues of course. ) Oh..and give them really cool names...makes them easier to sell in a vendor.

bah I just got my 350 max laser carb sliced (base tissue, +40/40 stock, +41 scope)....31% SPEED it's 2.5s now...good if you're not speedcapped though.


If you're speedcapped (tip get FS melee speed IV and save money on buying tapes), make sure they use a +40/40 stock and a +41 scope, you should get 370 max, 3.6swith +50 -0.3s tissue, accuracy around +70@ ideal

That is a great Laser for a Carbineer....


FS Melee Speed is only +12 whereas SEA's can be +25.....a Carbineer needs both if they want to use a damage sliced Carbine.


And use Imp Stocks, they have -0.5 Speed
