Thread: Fencers best use of Acklay Bones?

It's measurably better than the best reinforced core a master weaponsmith can make yes. But is it worth hacking your way through the Geonosian caves and HOPING to find a 2-hour spawn camped-to-hell monster to kill, then PRAYING that it drops the bone on your first pass, then trying to hold the cave against other people who will cheat, steal or kill for their chance to kill the damn thing?


A somewhat-better-than-a-crafted-reinforced-core piece of Acklay bone isn't worth that hassle. I'm not even sure that a 150 damage bone is worth all that to me.

Fixed ^


Since this is a replacement for the reinforcement core, not an enhancement you'll only see about 25 more damage with +65 bones. Adv. cores are around +40ish. +25 is still a welcome improvement, it's just not a mind blowing improvement.


As with any loot drop, there's going to be deviation. +65 appears to be the base, who knows how high it goes from there...



yay!

Very nice. Wanna sell 'em?


Seriously, I'd go for the Stun Baton... You should easily break 350 max unsliced. Probably 365ish give or take...



yay!

If you're a fencer, good luck camping the cave. I haven't taken on the Ackley yet, but those Kwis are med armored, 60% kinetic resist bastards. You're doing little to no damage against them, and the Acklay is a LOT tougher.

yes i have seen a really nice genoseon reinforcement core. min +40 max +50 made with a white powercube and +10 solidifying agent. a close guild mate of mine is a master weaponsmith. i have some yellow powercubes with min 16 max 18 and some solidifying agent that is +20 max damage. so theoretically that should yeild a genoesoen reinforcement core in the range of min +56 max +78.


the +40/+50 core yielded a gadriffi baton with a max dam unsliced of 231. after a damage slice it's a max 300 gadriffi

I have 3 sets of bones and they are all 65/65 and a friend has seen several more that were also 65/65 or lower. Has nyone seen anything higher than 65/65on Bria since they supposedly nerfed the drops?


65/65 makes a nice 140/195 3.1 stun btw (sliced) with reduced hams as well
