any database programmer would tell you it would be extremely easy... unless the code was written by a room full of chimps then maybe not...

Hmm I have a laser rifle, post CURB with 94 sac and 1200 dmg unpup, thats 1500 puped. So there was no exploit involved in crafting it, just good Krayt tissue and materials. One dmg slice and two crits. I dont see those weapons as a game killer but should be as rare as a perfect saber hmm? Of course weapons made from exploiting character transfers should be adjusted.

Or just go to eBay and buy a new weapon. What's the point? If you need one of these weapons to win, you will also need more, for you are a poor player.

And imagine what happens when one of those weapons gets in the hands of someone that knows how to fight. Then even someone that is just as good or even a little better can't contend with it. Two good players with those weapons could take out 4 good players without. Get it? UNBALANCED.

Or imagine this..... Every time you get hunted by a BH they have a 1600 max damage Scatter. Still think it's okay?

I don't think it's the max damage that really bothers me, it's the fact that the min value is probably more than a perfect sabers max damage lol. That's what makes weapons dangerous. Of course in PvE they would be unstoppable but that's a different type of complaint.

the CU was VERY inconsistant when converting weapons. I have laser rifles that were so-so pre CU that converted tons better than a Krayt DE-10 I paid 12m for. WTH?

Agreed, and of course any pistoleers that paid millions for their Geno pistols got screwed too. What are they, like a CL 30 gun now?

Don't remind me 500+ Geo pistol that my Pistoleer toon had turned to crap lol. I can't believe the amount of time I waisted looting the best components and then getting one of the crafters to make it. All waisted.....I dropped Pistoleer in the CURB because of it.
