Commando Archive

It has a normal damage range of about 1-3k. The reason no one uses it is that it is a consumable heavy weapon. A single heavy particle beam cannon can cost 30-60k cr, and only lasts 30 shots. On top of that, it has to be used in the kneeling postion, it has a fairly high ham cost, it has poor accuracy, and it has a long delay on it.

Of all the HSW, I use the HPBC the most myself - but that tends to be a rare event given its cost and everything.

Hmmmm, I see, I always wondered why i didnt see anyone with those things. Still, would make a nice last resort weapon.

When I was Commando earlier in my career I used my home made HPBCs (heavy particle beam cannon). I had a large stock I had made as Weaponsmíth earlier.

TheHPBC along with every other heavy weapon isvery inaccurate and you need plenty of skills to use them. I though find some use for them when my guild wereout hunting. Since I wasn't tank Icould stay back and fire the HPBCsfor good effect.

I doubt I would have boughten any heavy weapons cause they are very very expensive. HAM costs are a concern if your unbuffed.

I hope they remake the heavy weapons so they require much lesscomponents and expensiveresources.

the HPBC is the perfect weapon for vehicle killing... thats about it, i can normally pick up a stack of decent HPBC on the bazaar for 6k, slice em and i can get roughly 2-4k dmg.
