2: Imperial Form Fitted stock and the best Krayt tissue I could get my hands on

I highly recommend reading this post. Please understand you can use a nice stock, great tissues and have the whole thing ruined by a bad slice. Sometimes an awesome slice on an average weapon can make better weapons than bad slices on a great weapon. It is a rich mans game.

I had one made, actually 2, with advaced scopes, Imperial stocks and+54 tissueas well, hehe. 1 got a 24% damage slice and after power up is around 475 max damage, not too bad (although I almost never power it up to keep it alive longer).
Also had one of the special schimatic E-11's madewith stock, scope, tissue... Plusa nice +27 damage slice.Max with power up is around 460 but it also has the nice health bleed dot built in as well.
I have some other nice carbines too, but those 2 are my favorites for ham vs.effect, real nice guns. I have a great slice laser carbine that is around 445 max damage after power up, no tissue or stock, but as everyone knows the min damage is rotten so anyone with ranged mit 3 kind of neuters the shots.

FYI Powerups dont make your weapon degrade any faster, only slicing does this.

Where did you find that quote really and are you absolutely sure about this? I remember reading a post on the ws forum saying the exact opposite, tried searching for it but I didnt find it. And to me it seems that I get alot more decay when using PU's compared to when I'm not.

Power Ups make your weapon decay 25% faster than usual, sliceing has nothing to do with it.

Slicing does in fact wear out your weapon faster. I hardly ever use powerups on my normal weapons (i.e. non krayt weapons)but I usually slice them. Unsliced vs. sliced (never powered up for either) and the unsliced weapon almost always ends up lastingaroundtwice as long.
Armor doesn't have powerups and the same applies when slicing it. Unsliced armor lasts way longer than sliced armor.
Exceptional barrel/scope, krayt tissue and form fitted stock.
I got a dxr6 and elite made from all of these they are pretty insane.
