Whoa, hang on here, do NOT do anything that creates a weapon with a higher minimum damage than the maximum. This messes with multiple game systems, and you could potentially face item confiscation from a CSR. Since it's only a powerup, he would probably only remove the powerup(s) and not the pistol itself. Just the same, it's a headache to avoid.
This happened with acklay Stun Batons, and the response was that if you recieved a bone with a higher minimum damage, submit a ticket and a CSR can correct the item for you. If you used the bone in an item and crafted it, it could not be reversed at that point and had to be confiscated.
The difference seems trivial to us, but CS seems to be taking it seriously. At least until the developers find a way to fix it.
EDIT: read over the numbers again, heh, sorry. The above is still true, but I see now that the powerup only capped the effects of Damage Mitigation in his description, and that the actual weapon stats themselves were still legitimate. That should be okay.
Actually, it isn't possible to cap damage mitigation by having a tight damage range. It only reduces the spread of the damage..
Sorry about that, posting from work. Very distracted.

Nice pistol you have there. Just onestat to worry about:
Condition : 909/909
Nothing's worse then losing an awesome weapon to decay, then you have to face the dreaded Weapon Repair System.

Buy a striker.
I just ordered a crate of them looking for a 35% damage slice. Stats are like... 1.8 52-130 or so. So a good 35% damage slice would bring it to 175 or so, top that with a damage powerup and you got you a kinetic pistol with max damage around 230

Are you retarded? If I am right did you just admit to exploiting?

Yup, he just openly stated that he got an impossible slice value and immediately stated that an exploit was used.
Real smart there, buddy. Real smart.
