Commando Archive

I am novice commando, BH and pistoleer... I have used DX2, Laser carbine, ee3 carbine, scatter, FWG5, launcher pistol, LLC and Flamethrower..

Half of these have AP : light and the other half do not.

Yet i seem to see the Same damage no matter what i fight on all the above weapons... AND the ones with AP do not out perform the ones without AP on anything.. FT=LLC in damage..... FWG5 > Scatter???

and the Laser > EE3.

I am confused.. is this a bug.. is this not ever been right? or am i just wrong somehow on how this works? I dont see a 25% bonus on anything with NONE AP while using a AP1 or higher weapon.. nor do i see a decrease in damage while using a NONE AP weapon on a Light or higher AP value mob.

You don't get a bonus for fighting AP none. The damage will remain the same. But if you fight someone with armor of AP one your damage will not be restricted. For example, an FWG 5 with no armor piercing, will lose 25% of the original damage due to armor. So that a 100 HP hit only does 75 HP. Now, if you have an AP 2 weapon and are firing on armor that is AP 1 you will stil only get the base shot. There are no bonuses.

For example, with my Rocket Launcher, it would be overkill to use it on anything other than an ATST. The APs are equal. But to use it on anything else would be a waste of creds.

As a Master Commando I wouldn't know I don't have AP except my RL and that misses too much to figur it out, SORRY!!
