Carbineer Archive

The T21 (uses the same materials, a *lot* more power handlers) is AP3. I'm not saying the Elite should be, but why isn't it medium AP? It uses more blaster power handlers than the laser carbine does!

Well if everything in the game were logical, thing's would get pretty boring, wouldn't they?

Doh...."thing's" should be "things"

They can keep it at light ap. But just make it Electric damage and kick up the over all damage about 10% to make it stand out as an Elite gun. I say electric because stun has ben done by rifles and pistols...i want to be diffrent. And Elec is just as good in pvp now that most people have composit with stun layers...heck elec is probably better in pvp now than stun is. And for pvm yeh...it would rock : ) Just make it elec and im happy : ) The damage would just be nice.

Stun protection on my PvP armor is 39% throughout, everything else is 77% or thereabouts, throughout.

Electricityresistanceis Composite armor's Special Protection. This will always be higher than the base effectiveness, which tends to be 45-65%.

Yeh alright ill buy that. But you know if we get a stun weapon it will have low damage like the other stun weapons so its a tossup.

How bout giving Carbineers the certification for c22 nads. Blast damage is good and people dont expect it at all. WIth the 22's we could do good aoe blast damage.

My bigest push for electric is so i can keep using the elite for pvm also...you have to admit a electric weapon would be sweet for pvm. And people gat their composit with stun layers now for riflemen. So ill take 67% electric over 90% energy any day. You cant realy say withought doing the math and seeing our stun weaponbut we might be better off with electric on the elite than a low damage stun weapon for pvp. Consider 40% resist on a lower damage weapon or 67% resist on a high damage weapon. Im just trying to stay away from stun because its what everyone wants to use. not using it will force players to adjust their defence to componsate or be vulnrable to it. They wont redo their setup just to stop carbineers so im trying to exploit that.

I know they wont jsut flip the elite into stun...they will make a new stun weapon if they do anything. We have a better chance of getting electric on it wich imo would be extreamly usefull.

i really like the idea of a blast weapon. one of my character builds i am working on is what the Smugglers call "The Launcher Pistol Specialist"

Master Smuggler
Master Pistoleer
Novice Commando

this build allows you to use a heavy weapon with blast damage with the speed and accuracy of a pistol. nearly EVERY creature in the Geo cave is weak against or even vulnerable to Blast damage.

the 22's are a great idea

Lol the "1 star ninja" ouch. Dident think opinions could offend people lol
