Thread: I reiterate my concerns about the low mass of Level 10 loot items creating unbalanced ships.

ahhhh depends on the blaster, those advanced can get to what .250 speed? dps wise that might beat a lvl 8 considering how difficult it is to find a lvl 8 drop with lower than .400 speed.

Good point. I forgot why i liked L7 boltdrivers so much
I just have this aversion to crafted guns for some reason.

i had the same aversion for a long time until i found out how fast they got. speed kills.


for pvp? hmmm i dunno. there's someting to be said for spraying a bunch of fire around to be sure, but i'm not sure how effective it is as i've never really tried.

Being infront of an Xwing with 3 boltdrivers is an idea that scares me. (rapid fire shotgun)

Really high damage L7's with a quick refire rate. Not as low as crafted, but still wicked quick.

Twin blotdrivers at 14k mass each is where it is at


Fits on Advanced, fits on JSF, fits in Greivous, and for the RG Int, well lets just say my cert 10 does not pack quite the punch Kal's does, but it is lighter *evilgrin*

have you flown a light fighter with a high damage gun in PVE?






Yes, I managed to squeak in an Experimental Blaster on an A-Wing. Couldn't get the Advanced Blaster back in it fast enough. Point taken.

Not sure if the Vaksai qualifies as a light fighter... it flies like one but it has 150k mass. I have a lvl10 gun on it. It almost has as much firepower as the two lvl7 guns on my JSF, but it is 57k mass.
