I just got my Imperial reward blaster, the boltdriver. I was comparing it to the other level 7 blasters I've looted because I'd like to have it REed. Are these good stats for one of these after REing? These are the stats it would have before adding the bonuses.
Reactor drain: 1947
Mass: 17.1k
Damage: 1920-2953 (this being the damage from the boltdriver itself)
vs shields: .600
vs armor: .510
energy/shot: 24.7
refire rate: .335
thanks for any info

Try to get the mass below 15k and the pre RE vs shields/armor above/around .62

I would try to get the armor up to .600 before REing, and maybe see about getting the mass down to 15-16K. Everything else looks good, though.
Of course, if you really hold out, you can get some pretty amazing stats.. one I RE'd recently got down to 12715 mass, and you can hit .310 on refire and .650 shield/armor post-RE if you loot long enough. Depends on how long you want to wait around on the stupid thing, I've got a level 6 pre-nerf engine I've been hunting for parts on for over a month now with no end in sight.

Just so you can compare, here are the stats of my boltdriver :
Drain : 1840
Mass : my current one is 14.7K, so the one i used to RE this was about 15K if i'm not wrong. I also have a 14,3k mass one waiting to be REd along with my second boltdriver
Damages : nothing to add, the bolt is the best in its class
Efficiencies : both at .640 post RE, so that was a .610 before reversing. Wait for a good vs armor one before you RE this, there are some lvl 7 out there able to push it a bit further than yours
Energy/shot : 22.5
Refire : current one at .320, looted one at 313, should end at .300 after RE
All things considered, you gun should turn out pretty well, but I'd wait for a lighter one before REing this, all the other stats are not that crucial for an imperial :-)

Wow the imperials get shafted.
Thats not that much better than a lvl 7 crafted gun. I guess it does have a high min damage, but still.

Vs. rating combined with higher max damage makes a huge difference. Imperials would be shafted if they got the L8 gun with its mass. I've got a couple of the boltdrivers lying around for RE, think they'll fit real snug on my X-Wing.

i would actually say that its not any better than a level 6 REd, that is if you find the best parts. I dont have the exact stats, but i believe my level 6s have stats around: 1.8-2.8k min/max, 10k mass and around .680-.700 against shields and armor. Pair that with another similar one and youve got a great TIE Advanced 
I dont plan on using my boltdriver, i think im gonna RE it and sell to a rebel with an x-wing for anungodly sum of creds

The Boltdriver has the best damage of any level 7 weapon, but not by much. Its not like the Tri-cannon or Borstel Disruptor which have much higher damage than other level 8's, and also get that great energy per shot.

I recently REed my borstel disruptor to 3900+ damage and 26.5k mass. Fits nicely in my TIE adv

I had one of these and stored it on a vendor until someone came and stole it for the price of 1m credits LOL...
Is there any way to get another one of these without redoing my pilot stuff? I mean is this a lootable item or only a reward item?
Regards,
