Thread: Looted Weapon Guide.
crafted stats
Lance. Dmg 30-300 is a pretty decent crafted one or so, speed of around speed around 4.0, HAM 40/60/40 +10 on range mods
Vibro Lance . 100-350, 4.5spd, -30 range, HAM 60/80/30
Long Vibro Axe. 130-430 5.5spd, -55 range, HAM 90/70/30
what makes base stats good?
now these are just base stats on crafted ones so whats good base stats for looted ones
i would say anything 50-100 over normal on either end on damage. speed would have to be about 2 seconds faster and HAM costs about 1/2 of what they are normally. ANY better range helps lol.
having just 1 of the stats can be enough but it can also not.
IE: Vibro Lance. 1.0 speed 40-190 sucks but Vibro Lance 4.5 spd 300-500 would be sweet
DOTS
Fire: Fire rocks! Mind Fire is god-like. you want a good combornation of str and duration on this i would say str is more important tho. IE 300 str for only 4secs is 1200 fire dmg, quite enough.
Poison: i would aim for 200 or higher in str and 200 or higher in duration, Mind being the best but action not being bad with stacked bleeds and poision it can be a fun combo.
Diease: str of 40 is normal for us and is pretty good, anything higher would be great hehe, as far as duration for this go high, 1200s is pretty standard for us, which is 20mins. Any pool is fine, mind of course is best.
MODS
Def vs: You can have up to +25, +1-5 really doesnt help much unless you have other mods adding somewhere else, best ones are Def vs Dizzy or KD, also bleed/poision/fire resists are nice.
Other good mods to look for in +10 or higher (not necssarily have to be that hight tho) are Block, Polearm Speed, Accuracy, dmg i havent tested, if you use the + Warcry is nice to have.
Sum it all up.
the uberest of the loot will of course have a combo of high end in all hehe.
but decent is having really any ONE of these caterogies with a decent amount like i describe above and if all else fails try it out and see how it works

Personally, I've never seen a crafted LVA with more than 110-370 @ 4.4.

i am with antares on that. At least on kauri that seems to be the cap. Even though as time goes on the condition of LVAs are getting worse
. Always slower than before and a littl eless damage very time i check.
I still own one of the best player made axes i have heard of on any server(not to say that it is the best)....wich is 130-500 @ 4.4
Wich interestingly enuff was a 120-370 @ 4.4 LVA when i bought it. IT got a great damage slice...
If i could find a better axe, i would buy it, but there don't seem to be any aorund.
I would like to get my hands on a vibro lance of the quality you mentioned....i don't at all have a great one of those, and never really see anything better around....
I am holding out for uber loot.....but to get that, i would probably have to go and work for it.

Did it really need a bump when it was like 4th on the list?
Oh crap, I gave you a free one.
You can't say "this is good and bad" for crafted stats. It's a huge difference between servers. On chimera one of the best crafted LVB is.... 102-306 4.4

Hes using those stats as a springboard for you to gauge your loot.I don't care what server you're on, a lance that is 7-117 sucks. Thats universal.
If the stats on your server for normal weapons suck, it makes no difference when gauging whether a looted lance is worth something or not.
He was only using those stats to compare with.

Ok that made no sense at all. Lets reword it shall we.

There, that makes more sense.
anyway just my thoughts
