O yea, I can also have it sliced to 100% so im told so how you like them apples?
hahaha your an idiot, there is no such thing as 90% to stun, you probably have 0% to stun so you would get owned by any stun weapon. You can slice armour to 90% not 100%, 100% was possible for like a day in september.

lol, yeah.
heres where he chimes in and says 'of course i didnt mean stun' - even though stun damage is the whole point of this thread.
even 41% stun seems like a stretch, considering that stun layer resources are gated and even if you somehow manage to scrape together uber stun resources and putthree 13% stun layers in a suit youll still only have 39% stun protection.
either way, having made and sold a lot of armor, i can tell you that even with the geo craze there are few people out there wearing stun comp - let along good stun comp - and if they *are* wearing stun comp, youre still doing great damage especially if youre hitting for mind. geo pistols/eyeshot spam or jawa ion rifles with headshot3 kick @$$.

I call this persons statement "SHANINIGANS!"
Your armor in no way is 90% resist to STUN. Impossible.
And good luck slicing your armor up to 100%, hahahaha.
If I TOLD you you can get it up to 200% resist to everything even future space expansion X-wing damage if you lay prone while its sliced, would you be posting about it on these forums? LOL
honestly i'm about to give up on this forum, i'm too sick of people who don't know what there talking about claiming the dumbest things as facts. I mean the sonic pistol is the best thing that ever came to pistoleers for pvp. But people gotta get their facts staright and actually calculate numbers because half the people onthese forums a seriously confused. I make one post everyday on dumb thread to two extremes, either a person claiming theit republic blaster is way better for killing people with non-stun comp on(not true), or a person who claims the sonic pistol is way better then the jawa ion rifle(not true).

I have 90% comp armor . ALL STATS! If you dont belive me or if you dont own a pair then you havnt played the game. I know more people with the same armor then have posted here. The only reason Geos are liked now is because of such armor. Everyone has it in there head now that only stun can get thru armor because of high stun res.Where the hell do you think that came from? Not the nerfed 40% crap you all buy. Bring your geo and see what happens,youll be calling Nerf!
Reading your post hurts my head... try something for me... can you say "Have you seen my baseball?"

yeah i'm trying as hard as i can to understand this, and i thought i knew english pretty well. Been at it 19 years
I'd have to agree with most others on this thread. I have player crafted dmg sliced geo pistols and despite the lack of armor piercing, they make a huge differnce in pvp. There is no point using my RP even with the AP as most ppl have upwards of 70% resists now. I can finally cut thru ppl wearing comp armor with my geo's as most folks do not have a stun layer and even if they do, its only a matter of time. Someone mentioned the kiting and effective range issue with the Geo's. Still not a problem, its called tactics, oh and dirty fighting. Since the geo schematics started dropping (although rare still) pistoleer does not suck so much in pvp. Now if they would just increase the drops...
respectfully, El RammZee7
The geo pistol hands down is our best gun, which is saying something about our profession, and its not good. The chances of you aquiring a player made one are beyond slim, perhaps...2 dimensioanlly slim? However looting a halfway decent one isnt THAT hard as long as your willing to camp the first room of the geo cave, and have another party member willing to give you the guns they loot. If you have one with less then 140 max damage dont even bother using it. However, a decent 250+ max damage one with a decent speed can be a great asset.
Personally I have 2 I use, one with 298 max with a PU in it with 3.0 speed, and a 2.4 speed 150 max poison DOT one. I usually start off with the poison one, land a bleed, then move to my damage one.
if your fighting a player with stun resists, your damage will be greatly reduced, but in most cases unless you have some kind of super RP or DX2, you still doing more damage with it then either of those 2 guns.

post a screeny chief , general consensus is that even with perfect resources i.e 1000 in all stats the highest possible stun resists is 45% . i am not an armorsmith so i dont know if loot could improve on this figure , however 90% i definately dont believe . furthermore since stun is in the special protection category an effect slice would not increase the resist.
