i have a 345 base dps gun...with 580 modified..this any good?

cancelled my account, after 3 years of playing this game, day one, fought a giant peko peko with a group of 20 novice marksmens, day 50 fought a krayt dragon with a group of creature handlers, doctors, and rifleman, deleted and created 4 charactrs after mastering professions with each, sometimes up to 10 with each one, just because i actually enjoyed leveling in pre-CU,

DONT CALL the era before CU " pre-CU " call it SWG, for that is what it really was, this now is just an everyday terrible computer game.

well, ill stick to single player games for a while, im done with WoW too, but it sure beats the heck out of NGE-SWG, i will certaintly purchase SWG again, +all expansions if they gave back CU, id do it in a heartbeat but until that glorious, fantasized day, i wont be here.

CU was a great game, and i wont rest till its back or im banned, so please people just keep rooting for it, it will eventually come, or SOE will eventually be out of buisness due to all the accounts banned

I think that the NGE has to many things wrong
---not fun at all to level
---not fun at all to pvp
---to small variety of classes/professiosn to choose from
---quest to credit reward ration is to small based on the economy from the trade forms
---Classes dont do what they are suppose to
------smugglers dont smuggle
------jedi just have sabers, no interaction with other jedi, and no light or dark
------spies dont spy and recover data or plant data etc, they just go invisible (WoW and other game rip off)
------trader just makes items that dont work with the economy since loot is better
------pilot doesnt work since nobody goes in space often enough and the space with no space battles or anything is crap all together
------bounty hunters dont have enouhg bounties on the terminals to be able to hunt, they just stand there all day
------officer is a joke, you dont even command troops
------commando is like officer just you get differnt weapons, you dont blow anything up
---lots of things are screwed with the game, and id be happy if i could have SWG (pre-cu) even with no more content then it had, a whole lot better than this

Why SOE cant just go back i dont know, why they have to be proud, i dont know



SO I SAY FINALLY AND FOREVER.....

OR UNTIL REAL SWG RETURNS

GOOD BYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you should take that powerup off lol

it's making your pistol slower and less accurate

Actually it makes your speed faster, but less accurate. Speed power-up add more DPS to any weapon above all other power-ups.

Not to mention DPS really doesnt mean much anyhow. I do far more damage with a damage pup than without it even though it lowers my DPS.

Not only that the Modified Speed is under 1. Because everything caps at 1 speed, you're not really firing at .7. So as they said, you're basically losing accuracy and not gaining much speed in return. Damage is the way to go.

DPS is nothing but a ballpark estimate, a quick glance for simple comparison. I've completely stopped looking at it, espescially as a Pistoleer/BH. Max Damage and SAC are where it's at, with speed as close third.


With that being said, you don't need the speed power-up on that gun, as it's making the DPS look a lot better than it really is. Pop a damage PUP on it, or an SAC PUP, though with a cost over 100 SAC I'd favor the SAC PUP myself. You'll find that you're dumping a LOT more damage out if you do that.

This was true before CU, haven't seen any confirmations of this since it went live.

I have a modified attack speed of 0.78 on one of my pistol. After running a simple macro of


/rangedshot %TT;


/pause 0.78


/rangedshot %TT


I notice the second ranged shot didn't work.


I didn't had time to run a serie of test, altering the /pause command, ( altough i did changed to 0.80 just to see, still no effect) but i'm pretty sure that most of the time we can't effectively reach some modified attack speeds we see/have.

Every special move has a timer that says when another move can be used after it has been used.


For instance, Quickdraw is about 0.5 seconds with my speed mod and Bodyshot is 1.5.


Theoretically if you had a gun fast enough and high enoigh speed mods you could get the timers on a lot of specials under 1 second and then be able to output damage at the speedcap with your most damaging specials.

The speed powerups are the way to go without a doubt! However you acc will decreased this is easily overcome by taking a cripix (sp) made by your local artisan. I have found on my precu pistols with low SAC cost this little food makes my de-10 sing a toon i never thought it would sing again. Additionally, there will be an explosion of 14 -12 pt artisans with the CU due to the interesting things they can produce, some of the best long term buff food, powerups, vehicles ect. So in a word these powerups will only get better.
