I noticed two of my rifles, a t21 and a disruptor have been doing a LOT less damage then usual. I checked their stats, and the min/max dmg values were infact significantly lower than I remember. I alos noticed that the wepoans have worn down to less than 25% condition. I repaired them both but the damage values did not go back up to the original range. Can anyone shed some light on this?

read the "in live" or "in testing" forums. There is a new "issue" with weapon decay, players have noticed armor and weapons are decaying like crazy! i had a scythe go down over 300 condition when GDK hunting and killing 7-10 gdk's, my armor got abused to death also.
To my knowledge, dev's have not confirmed or deny'ed or EVEN acknowledged that there is a problem with this.
Chances are they are going by the old tricks again, their slogan is "no information is better than negative information"
so this can either be a bug, or a new "nerf", who knows either way because i doubt they will even acknowledge it until everyone stats complaining

I agree, stuff has been decaying much faster than normal as of late. Its REALLY frustrating to have your Acklay hammer or scythe take a huge hit on its condition just from fightin ONE guy. Its down right rediculous. If the new decay rates are going to stay, then weapons and armorshould have 3 to 4 times the condition they have now.

I'm not really concerned aboutthe decay rate. I've been usuing the crap out of these weapons and the decay rate has been acceptable. WHat I'm worried about is the significant drop in damage. Does anyone know about this?

the drop in damage is because you let them get so low in condition - that's what happens. once the dmg gets reduced it is not increased again even when you repair it.

ok - at what point is there a damage reduction? 50% condition? 25% condition?

so as long as you repair them BEFORE they hit 25%, the damage range will not be affected? Also, when the condiiton of the wepon is lowered and they decay again, does the dmage reduction kick in at 25% of the original condition or 25% of the new reduced condition after the repair?
