Thread: FWG5 Update
SO can anyone answer me
What happens now to the guns that some of us have worked and spent lots and lots of money getting
will they be pre nerf fwgs
or are they going to be changed in the patch.
If its the later I expect at least 80% of the pistoleer community to dissapear and proberly with it there accounts
Isn't it funny that instead of perhaps changing the maximum stats on a krayt tissue, they turn around and slam down multiple weapons schematics?
This isn't a nerf. Those schematics were bugged. Blaster power handlers are for beam type weapons. Feeder mechs are for projectile weapons. Weapons are either beam types or projectiles. They can't be both.

They wont change the ones that are out there now. So stock up this week.
I have 50
I have a krayt dragonFWG5 that is sliced and has464 base dmg. I spent quite a bit of time getting the tissue do to the fact thatI do not have an at-st and my best pet is a cowardly gurreck. Most of that time was running back out to the spawn after I had died. I have dropped as many as 20 krayts without having any tissue drop at all. I do not see where the problem was with this weapon, the problem is with needing 5 tissues to do the same to the DX2. I have never got more than 4 exp. tissues when they dropped so you could never boost aDX2 the same as a FWG5.
It should also be noted that I do not hunt krayts no more because I got tired of an imp guilding showing up with a dozen or more at-st and stealing my spawn.

On a side note tho, with experimentation yields on test, vs. Live Darth_Llama wouldn't we lower experimentation than your saying? Well just plain lower everything almos
Actually, from what I understand to be the changes on test, experimentation yields higher results when higher quality materials are used. The "bug" is that currently you can achieve the same % increase through a success when building with low qualitymaterials aswhen usinghigh quality materials. Experimentation should now scale based on material quality rather than the fixed 7% increases that we are used to.
Essentially, with weapons that require very low quality materials (T-21 is a great example) Weaponsmiths won't be able to dump points into damage/speed then cap out after5-6points with extra to use to reduce HAM or increase range/durability.
The opposite is that when making something that can use fairly high quality materials (Scout blaster is a very good example) where it would already take 9-10 points to max damage, this shouldn't change.
My other toon is a Master Smuggler/Pistoleer, so I will feel this FWG5 fix/nerf with everyone else if it's bad. I just don't think it's going to be as bad as everyone is making it out to be. I am abit more concerned with the crafting changes that you mentioned though, but it they come out the way I think they will, it won't be quite as bad.
