Pistoleer Archive

Ok... maybe I'm just slow and you all know this already.... but it doesn't seem like the accuracy mods are making weapons hit harder anymore.

I have a krayt DL44 with 936 max damage, which also happens to be the exact damage on the DC15 rifle I got from the Fett quest. So as a smuggler/pistoleer I decided to give these a comparison on some yard trash outside Kaadara tonight before I sliced the rifle and hand it over to my alt. I wasthinking the extra 40 accuracy I have for pistols would add some damage.(200 accuracy when holding a pistol, 160 acc when holding a rifle)

They both fired the exact same damage. Body shot was 1404 and ranged shot was exactly the max damage... 936.

The other day I tried out a new pistol in the same way and was surprised that it hit ranged shot for exactly the max damage of the weapon, because before I could have sworn it was max damage plus modified slightly, but then I put it down to me being forgetful and probably testing with a different special like Aimed Shot or something before.

I have heard since the combat upgrade that having more accuracy not only helps you hit, but also makes you hit harder?

Now after typing all this out, I guess one conclusion could be that yard trash can only be hit so hard and accuracy doesn't help there, but it would help against higher level critters? /shrug

Thoughts or input?
