Commando Archive

Hi Everyone,

We finally got Dolovite Iron on flurry and we are now able to buy the Launcher Pistol. I just bought one, but I didn't want to spend too much. They are selling for 10k to 50k after being sliced. Keep in mind the resources to make this weapon has only been available since last night. So based on the following stats, which one is the better pistol considering all factors:

1. 49-211, 2.6 speed, 10000cr

2. 59-261, 3.6 speed, 20000cr

3. 58-253, 3.6 speed, 30000cr

4. 64-278, 3.6 speed, 50000cr

Initially I bought the 10k one due to the fact it seems that the DPS would be a little higher. Any help/advice would be appreciated.

The first one has a better DPS then all the others. Plus it's the cheapest. I my server weaponcrafters are all trying to get rich off commando's expense. On Ahazi we've had access to launcher pistols and such for a while now and they aren't the best of weapons (due to quality of the resources), but they still cost about 30K for the best stuff. And a lightning cannon you're talking about 80-100K for one of those.

I'm sorry but I'll just use a pistol I refuse to pay 100K for a weapon I can only shoot 200 times and only hit maybe 50% of the time.

Its true weaponsmiths are totaly takeing advantage of the commando's by selling there weapons at prices that range from 50k-100k. I really doubt that it was that much work to put that thing together or get the resources

If people stop buying them, the prices will come down. Though right now, it is very expensive for them to acquire all the resources to make them and very time consuming for them to mass produce them. Things are a little better on Eclipse, more like 20k for a high end LP but you're better off finding a weaponsmith friend to make stuff for you. Plus you can have them name your weapons stuff, like The Great Bunny Slayer or Half Baked for a FT.

Chilastra my buddy sells high quality launcher pistols for up to 12k. Has less models for like 7k to 10k. Must just be a server thing.

STOP BUYING THEM FOR THAT....

I promised I'd sell them as I ran into Commandos on Flurry... Tadaan... Wookie Weaponmaker... House just north of Kor Valla on Correllia.... made me 50something to mid200something 3.6 with decent HAM costs. I bought two for 4k each (gave him 11k for both out of sheer joy and he threw in 2 crates of speed upp-ing attachments) Neither were sliced but I can take care of that later. I think he's usually on evenings.

Reasonably priced, high quality (he called me back after I purchased his original issues at 4.0 speed because he remembered a better component he could use - No charge). I told him I would send business his way and if you're on Flurry, make this guy happy...

Flurry Server

Guildless but not friendless

I gotta ask what am i missing???

I am commando and FINALLY got out of novice commando and into level 1 of commando skills....My problem is that I have and have used a launcher pistol on the flurr server and have NEVER gotten a single commando xp pt for using it...the xp always go to pistol??? Is this a problem with the way I'm using it or the LP does not give commando xp? If it doesn't give commando xp, then why do folks keep wanting to get such a crappy weapon? It sux and you can't use any special pistol skills with it so as to increase damage!?!?!?!

For what it's worth, give me my heavy acid rifle w/my new level 1 special shot (outrageous 175k worth of heavy weapons xp just to get the level 1 acid rifle skill!!!!!)....It's the only commando weapon I've found worth a crap until DEV's get off their butts and fix our profession and our equipment...And I am NOT going to spend all that money the weaponsmith's are charging for these special heavy weapons that once I use up all the charges or shots I can throw it away and go buy another one at around 40k to 100k+ per weapon....did I mention that we've been set up to only have a 50-50 chance of hitting anything with those weapons too, therefore you can consider those weapons to only have half the usable charges/shots in them...the other 50% are just out the window, LOL

OK nevermind my earlier post about the launcher pistol issue...no wonder mine don't work because I got mine from as a reward from Princess Leia and the launcher pistol MUST be player made to work w/special shots and to get commando xp...at least that's what I just found out anyway...I've yet to test this....

OBTW - who on flurry server is making the best launcher pistols without trying to screw commandos in price?
