I can't seem to figure out the Conversion #'s for the weapons. Do you have any Insight?

Stun baton is certified at level 54, gaffi at 15 and vibroblade either lower or uncerted (someone could confirm these numbers.
I imagine that since "level" is now all-powerful, they felt it unsuitable for a low-level weapon to have better stats than a higher one.
It's a shame as there are some healthy nerfs going on here. While by no means uber, my gaffi rarely fails to draw attention and a good Nym vibrobutterknife is an extremely underrated weapon which no Fencer should be without. After conversion mine looks very sorry for itself indeed.
Thank goodness I never did manage to get hold of any Nightsister motors.

I guess what's unfortunate about the new certification system is that on Live, it's a Master's game. The way things are on Live right now, if you don't have two (or three) professions mastered, you're not really playing the game yet. Or at least that's the perception.
No one really talks about how well the current game is balanced for the novice elite working their way up to master, I guess because so many people spend so little time in those levels.
Just ask the crafters. Who is really buying chitin armor from novice armorsmiths working their way up? Since launch, the closest we've had to players actually having to buy goods from novice crafters was JtL, at least for the first day or two.
After a while they actually encouraged crafters to use Practice Mode to keep all the sub-Master level product out of the system.
Why would they want to create a balanced, content-filled experience for novices if the players insist on grinding through that period on terminal missions in the space of a few buff cycles?
The new certificationsin the CU aresituated along the advancement path and players qualify on these weapons as they progress. This would be a nice progression if you were a new player working your way up. Butif you're already a master, you've bypassed thelevels at which those weapons would actually be a step up.
