I am a Carbineer and I have all the modifiers for my carbine specials. Reload Times, Damage Mulipliers, Status Effect Timers and thus i am able to determine the best specials based on my skills and weapons i have, I have a friend who just recently mastered Pikeman and asked if i could do the same for him. I asked him that info and he looked at me with glazed over eyes. So i decided to come and look for myself, after i looked through the forums i couldn't find anything. Do you guys have a list of that information? If you don't I am on the Radiant server and would be more than happy to help compile it. Shouldn't take to long,all you need is a master pikeman, a lair, a decent connection, a stopwatch and some basic math skills.

What our carbine correspondent did was hit a lair with a low damage and slow weapon. And record the time between attacks (do 100 or so).And use the speed formula to get the reload times.For Damage, take 100 hits, find the average damage for the 100 hits, find the average of the weapon, compare the 2, take the highest damage hit vs. the maximum damage, find the lowest damage hit vs. the minimum damage. If we could finda total n00b pike, like metal pole 6.0 10-13 damage type weapon not much room for error. Plus against a lair you dont have any Armour Peircing Issues.

Ingame is Lawke Eislen send me a tell if interested. Probably get 2 or 3 groups to do this and compare results just to cut down on errors.Results may be surprising.After the tests it was determined that beforeyou hit the speed cap (which at Master most of don't unless we have uber weapons) our Highest ADPS (Average Damager Per Second)Special.was /fullautosingle2 whichyou got very early on in the class. So this would be beneficial to both new and experienced players.

antares I was about to bump that very thread and ask gunman21 for a stick today as a matter of fact.

So Gunman. . . can we get a sticky?

What was wrong with this post that it deserved a one-star?

When we find out who the one-star bandit is, we are going to tar and feather him/her and ride them out of the forum on a rail!

That is all.

/shrug Good question. Maybe someone who doesn't agree with the numbers? There are notes later in the file from the guy who did some testing and found some descrepancies. Got me.

Antares, thank alot, that Post is kind of hard to read though the format was kind of hard to follow though. But the imformation was absolutely amazing. Here are links to the Carbine Threads I was talking about:

Special Modifers:

Specials: http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=carabineer&message.id=15617

Personally i feel both of those should be a mandatory sticky at the top of all the combat proffession forums. They are a very helpful resource for new and seasoned players alike. Thanks once again.
