Does anyone have DEFINITIVE answer on these? I keep hearing some saying they are, and some saying they aren't... I'd really love to know if they're working before I go out and buy some. Thanks

Broken...


LordS, our Correspondent, has confirmed with the Dev's that ALL Heavy Weapon Mods are bugg'd...they have no effect on any of our skills...


This is not to say that they might not be fixed some day (personally I'm sitting on a stash of them just in case)...but as of today they do nothing no matter what anyone says...


The reason is in their wording...they effect Heavy Weapon Speed...or Heavy Weapon Accuracy...Back in Beta, all our Heavy Weapon skills fell under 2 skill mods...Speed and Accuracy....After Beta, our Heavy Weapon skills were divided up into mods like Heavy Acid Rifle Accuracy, Heavy Particle Beam Speed, Flame Thrower Accruacy, Rocket Launcher Speed, etc...Our skills were changed, but the mods were not updated...and unfortuantely they still drop as is...notice when they are equiped that your skill list ends up showing something like 0/+3 Heavy Weapon Speed....this means it's effecting nothing...


The only actual Commando related mod in game that actually does anything for is Throwing Weapon Accuracy and Speed....that IS an actual skill of ours...


On the same note, Grenade Experimentation should be brought up...We use to craft our own Grenades...and we had a skill called Grenade Experimentation...we don't anymore, so unless WS's have a skill called Grenade Experimentation (which I don't think they do) then that mod also effects nothing...


I hope this helps...

Well if they try to contest the fact they don't work, let them know I have a +10 Heavy Weapon Speed mod in a belt and +15 in other armor components...I've tried my 4.8 spd FT (no specials) with the mods equipped and without...absolutely no speed difference...It's all in their imagination unfortunately...

Thanks, I thought that was the case but I kept hearing of people saying how fast their FT was with the HW speed mods. Thanks again.
