Thread: Stopping Shot got nerfed
I just tested this and I see no change in stopping shot's damage modifier. Perhapst there is a damage cap in place now, or your target or weapon has changed? I doubt I'll do testing on anything other than pistol specials, that keeps me busy enough ![]()
I don't know, any monkey can take max damage experimented weapon (highest max damage), with the highest possible damage slice,with the highest possiblemax damage power up,multiply by the highest damage modifier special ability, and tally it up. Then do that vs AR0, AR1, AR2, AR3, and some cross section of resist %s to see where the gun/special/max everything puts them. Then maybe vs knocked down opponents since it adds 50% damage.
It's not a bug, so why would anyone need a screen shot to figure out high-end things? *boggle*.
"How in the *edit* were you getting 2k with stopping shot?"
2k shots arent very hard and are semi-common, ive hit 2700 stopping shots, with a max damage of 311 on my gun.
and are u sure they nerfed it already? i havent seen a nerf on my damage output.

Well seeing as the Dev working on the T21 was using max damage only, not max+min/2 to work out DPS I think there is your answer.
When Devs working on combat can't work out DPS I don't have much hope for any combat class. ![]()
cass123 ,
Do you need me to come test carbines for you? They can do far more DPS than pistols at the moment. You have to have the best possible weapon, sliced for damage, use the highest damage special (ignored delay), and then compare numbers. What is the damage modifier and average damage of your weapon? don't know? Please share with us, we'd like to compare weapon modifiers and damage. Since without that, no one has a clue what they are talking about IMO when it comes to damage comparison. All that and you get an AR2 weapon. I suspect you might need to do some searching for a better weapon, and get the best special going, with damage slice and a max damage power up before you can talk trash here.
You can blame me for this nerf guys...
In holocrons thread on the T21 I posted this screen www.andrewlee.dsl.pipex.com/highdamage.jpg
Someone important obviously saw it because now when I use stoppingshot I'm getting on average 1000-1200, and rarely hit 1500+
Sorry...
Tssr'ct Misso
Don't you just love SOE and their so-called wisdom? Rather then fix the 2 or 3 shots that are broken in Pistoleer or don't do as advertised they nerf the only ones that werk. LoL, I use Fan anyways but really?
