Speed 2.68
Damage 481-1133
Base DPS 301.04
SAC 85


Man I feel like a nag today

as long as you can get the third slice i'd get all 3 damage slices - the last won't bump the max much but it shoudl pull the min damage up if it does stick, then a single speed slice adn a single critical damage. (reason being speed makes very little difference in the end - even from a 12% speed slice)

yes, adk'd weapons can be sliced however, that is an avg at best weapon, so I am wondering why you would ADK it. that gun will not be uber no matter what slices you do.

2 damage 2 speed

slicing cap is 1046 so a 4% damage slice will bring it right to cap.

lol you have to be kidding, that gun takes 140+ tissues at the least probably. Just cause it isnt damaged cap doesnt mean its not a great gun. Saying its average at best is such a joke.

Can't really say if the gun is good or not, as long as i don't know the SAC. If that one is high, then it's really just an average weapon, if SAC is low, it's a very nice weapon.


And on the "average at best" statement, you have to understand that the perception of many people here is a bit off, which is a direct result of the forum. Nobody here posts his "second class crap, but cheaply bought" weapon here, they all present their best and most valuable weapon. And ifpeople only read about those highest-quality guns, everything below suddenly might appear to be sub-standard to them, although the difference might be smaller than they realize.


I personallyhave two guns which can compete with the guns described on the forum. But i only use them in PvP or tough fights (like Nekrosis), they are way too valuable to waste them on grinding tours where it would in effect just save a second or two per target and still cost the precious guns a lot of durability. And actually, while looking much weaker "on paper", they do the job very well.


And on the slice, i would take the damage now and save the rest of the customisation till critical hit works again. Then you put the rest of customisation there, increasing the damage potential a lot. Though, with the given speed and MSL/MCarb, you might be at a point where a speed slice actually still does good.
