Thread: Comparison of Weaponsmiths
One week Smith A has awesome DX2s.
The next week his DX2s are below average because he ran out of some resource that was only good on the server a month ago, and he has to use crap now.
Then another week later they're good again because he found someone to buy a stockpile of it from, or a new resource spawned.
What I think WOULD be useful though is an idea of what the "best" a weapon can be made is. This way you know when to stop shopping around and just buy, and you also have an idea of when to stock up before another 6 week drought in resources strikes.

Origins is decent. Here are the specs of the Origins pistol I've been using untiltonight. I had it sliced.

Vast is awesome. Some claim he's a rip off but I don't. He sells high end pistols. Here's one I bought tonight.
Scout Pistol

Wound: 20.4%

Origins pistols have much lower damage and wound ratings. HAM costs slightly lower for Vast's. Range bonuses slightly better for Vast. Vast is also a nice guy and will answer emails and tells promptly. I was out testing this new pistol and was regularly doing 1400 dmg shots to thugs I was previously doing 800 to using Stopping Shot. Quite an improvement I think. I do believe that this gun has already been sliced, but like that matters. Did I pay too much? Bah, I have plenty of money; even after I bought this gun I had 40k left over from that night's earnings.
Notig had FWG5s with
245dmg
2.5 Speed
Unsliced
50k
It was 305 dmg after the slice.
