I'm a Weaponsmith and I've seen some people here wondering about the prices of a good Acklay Stun Baton, so I'll explain why.

A standard Acklay bone is +65/+65. Acklay bones are a replacement for the WS-crafted Reinforcement Cores, which are about +41/+41. These WS-crafted ones give you Batons that are 90-133 damage, meaning when you use the standard Acklay bones you get 114-157. Even with a good damage slice it doesn't come close to being a good weapon. The weapon is called an Acklay Stun Baton while a lot of people think it's not.

So a Weaponsmith has to wait weeks and weeks till some above average Acklay Bones are found, like +103/+120 for example. Using these Bones, the weapon's damage will be 152-212. A good slice will make this weapon quite nice. Still not 300+ damage like a really good one though. So the Weaponsmith waits some more weeks till quality/exceptional Acklay Bones are found and he makes a Stun Baton (if he gets a good slice) of 300-400 max damage. And believe me, you pay 200-300k for a standard Acklay bone, that give you an idea of what you pay for a really nice one.

I hope this clears some stuff up.

An excellent economical explanation for both the average/exceptional stats and the average/exceptional prices (the two not always coinciding). Thank you.

217-435 here. (unpuped of course)

Not too shabby, min is kindalow against melee, but then again I am a tank so I am not doing the majority of the killing

I know a few people who made batons out of exceptional bones which got up to high 500's max and high 300 min. I have seen pics of one on image-dump thats aout 900 max.Would have liked to see the stats on those legendary bones hehe

They were 650/650 <-------------------

Damn....thats beautiful /tear

these bones where photo-shopped

What's interesting is these bones were actually looted with reverse stats (650/263). Well 1 stun baton was made with one of the bugged bones and came out to 650-651 dmg with p/u. Anyways this baton was used in pvp and totally owned a jedi knight and the jedi knight reported it.

Here's the combat log from that fight. It's hard to read but the damage with scatter shiak was 1635. The stun baton was confiscated by CSRs and the rest of the bones had their stats reversed to 263/650.

That's just 1 set of exceptional bones looted on Ahazi. There was another set looted that made some 1000 dmg stun batons.

well i was bout to post the same thing so ill just throw this in the same thread... any kind of idea what 75/98 acklay bones would give stats wise in a baton?
