Hehe. Don't be a nub. Ranged weapons have a high min-max spread, while Lightsabers have a tight min-max spread. This means that, once faced with high defense, ranged weapons start putting out very low amounts of damage (min damage), while Lightsabers still put out near their max, because there's not much of a difference between mix-max on a LS. This makes them perfect for PvP and difficult PvE (DWB, Necrosis, etc.)




just to point one thing out, my alts bowcaster is about 700 min, this is more than the majority of lightsabers max damage.

Lightsabers have elemental damage, Bowcasters don't.

Yes, but that is far from common.

last time i checked elemental didnt get multiplied so in the end i end up doing more damage with crit shot and spray then a jedi and my most powerful attack doesnt have a zip bar.

I'm not on Gorath, but yesterday I duel a jedi. I am a master defender for the record. He hit me for 1.2k damage. Please cease this, your wasting tissues.




That may very well be the case; this is why the current system is seriously imbalanced and flawed. It is no longer possible to create a "perfect" lightsaber due to way crystals and pearls tune and drop now. In my opinion they need to just do away with the whole loot-dependentsetup if they don't want to incorporate more balance into the system.

sabers are fine.

keep in mind that our speed right now is messed up and not working as it should.

our dmg in most cases is not what it should be, but that is not due to that sabers suck, it because the pearl and tuning method pretty much blows.

they only thing that i would say they should change on sabers is sac, either remove it or make base sac 100 not 126? that it is now since in most cases fc is pointless in pvp, so we can either experiment on dmg or speed withought sacrificing sac since once our mod speed gets fixed our action will be droping like a rock, but then again our pearls need to be fixed so they include sac reduction mods as they are meant to have.

Sabers are fine.


Problem is everyone bases their goods off of max dmg. " Oh my saber sucks cause its onley 600 max dmg and a riflemans lazer is 1100. " Well wopty doo. His min dmg will be what 400? Saber will be 500. So if defences are greater then accuracy then saber does more dmg.


Max dmg is not where to look but instead min dmg. As this is what you will hit for 90% of the time because generally no ones accuracy will be greater then their aponents defence with the right foods and gear. If you find yourself getting torn apart check your defences and learn to get them up via food clotheing what ever it takes.


On a nother note I have aCU saber Crystals droped from canyon corsairs since the cu and one before.


110 before cu 105 103 98 after. My saber does something in the 550 -650 range and i have never died to a BH since Full temp.CM and all, they just die.


Sabers are fine.
