wow rate 33 with that low OQ tolium is good. the tolium used in these was 936 OQ

Message Edited by RaccaBoo on 05-20-2004 01:02 PM

I have only been able to make an MSE with det level 34. I have tolium gas with OQ in the 900s and copper in the 900s but my inert gas is in the 200s. Could this be the reason? How much effect does the copper and inert gas have on the det power?

Mine came out to det rating 38 with all resources used in the mid 800s

Let me get this straight ...the MSE's got the jedi on the roof of the PA hall? If so, this eliminates one of the major hiding spots.

Link version, 'cause I'm lazy

link 2
link 3
link 4

I tried doing that and it did not work. What is the html code for doing that?

Well, after reading the replies here, I checked my MSE bomb droid again just now to see if I had made a mistake about the rating. But I was right, it does indeed have a detonation power of 33. And the tolium quality is actually 83, but the decay resistance (dunno if that makes a difference) is in the 900s. The other materials I used were in the 900 range also.

Not to hijack your thread RaccaBoo, but have you used these droids to kill NPC's? Were you able to loot/ harvest after you killed them? I've attempted on many occasions to harvest/loot after a bomb kill, and so far no luck. I do not recieve permission to after they drop; creature or NPC.

Ok sorry, back to the topic.................................yeah I get 38 power using OQ 986 gas, 540 Tolium, and some darn good metal (i think its metal right?) Oq around 988.

Okay, further update here, and a correction. I made another detonation module, and the rating for the module itself is only 6. But when I combine 2 of them into a MSE droid, the final detonation power is 33. Is that good or bad? lol


Rippen

The max rating for the module is 10. But the MSE's get a +10 bonus to detonation power per detonation module, which for two 6 rated modules should add up to 32 or 33 (best possible for an advanced MSE is 40). that you got 33 tells you that the actual rating of the module is at least 6.5. They have fractions in the rating even though it doesn't show.

If you combined your modules to make an R3 which gets no bonus to detonation power, the rating would only be about 39 or 40 though which would be pretty bad. My MSE's have a rating of 39. My R3's have a rating of 58.

I use 990 oqinert gas, 994 oq tolium, and copper with 998 conductivity and ~800 oq. My modules have a rating of 9.7.

For these modules it is very easy to figure out the exact rating. take the percent effectiveness after experimentation and divide by 10. Mine are 97% effective.

Nope have not used on any NPC yet. They so expensive I only used them on the jedi so far.

I used 2 rate 56 R3's and many MSE at rate 38 with the help of an AT-St but they both died

I like the exploding droids just for this one purpose. The rate 38 were doing over 1800 dmg in pvp before the armor

Wow, I made an exploding MSE last night with just-spawned tolium gas (only 86 OQ ) on Starsider but didn't try it yet. It had a 33 rating, and I thought it was lousy because of the low quality tolium. Maybe I oughta try that bugger...
