Thread: Are my old weapons obselete?

I am a returning pistoleer and I would have really only played a few days now (Eclipse). I wondered whether I needed to go and get new weapons or not. I have several hanging around but I wanted to know if these were kind of adequate or whether I need to start hunting replacements. I do not really have time to go shopping and I thought you all could let me know if these are so far below standard that I need to replace them immediately:


FWG5 337-778 damage/2.26 speed/84 SAC

DX-2 365-790 damage/2.40 speed/84 SAC

Mod. Rep. Blaster/358-784 damage/2.41 speed/84 SAC

No need to apologize...I just cannot really tell because I have not really found any good weapon vendors so far. I really just needed to know whether I should spend the time looking for weapons or not.

just a general note on good stats ( and i'm using the word good , not excelent or uber, but good in the sense of decent, easy to find, and not very expensive ) for any of those weapons:


damage xxx-860 ( most can reach 900 damage with some ease oreven pass the 900 mark


speed ~2.1/2.2 ( possible to find 2.00 or even lower)


SAc - trytofindpistols with SAClow as possible. 84 is not bad.

I have not been able to find pistols anywhere near that good on Eclipse other than prohibitively expensive loot-crafted ones and I have been all over looking for them. I do not have the stats here (at work on lunch), but I think the highest DPS that any of the ones I have found at a price I can afford is around 310. I have been to just about every weaponsmith listed on the map on three planets. I am on a budget since almost everything I owned was in a house that went "poof" and I gave away lots of credits when I quit. If anyone has active pistol craftersthey can recommend on Eclipse it would be very helpful.

Ignore DPS, get a pistol with over 900 damage and under 85 SAC.


If you can, farm some Gorax and Krayts for shards and tissues and then have a weaponsmith craft you a Krayt DLXT44 and a Gorax Featherweight FWG5.


The guns you have are not that bad though you know, just lacking a bit on damage.

Well,,, Lotok, Pope, Elvisand Aegis are pretty good, specially if you send a tell to one and talk about what you have and need. Most of them will be pretty happy if you ask about good damage and SAC and say you are not interested in DPS. Still, I suggest you get some credits, since a decent weapon will cost you about 1000 000.

Thanks very much for the responses. I will look up the gunsmiths when I get on next. I might wait on asking about custom stuff until I raise some funds. I must say that I like pistol a great deal now, stopping shot especially. Great information on this forum as well.
