When they scaled back the FWG5 what did they do to it?

Just wondering the average stat difference between one of the FWG5 now and before.

Thanks,

hi, i'm not sure of the exact spec's but i know the max damage has been lowered, i have a crate of the best non krayt pre-nerf fwg's and they are hitting max damage around the 220 mark, the best i have seen from the new ones is around the 190 mark.

My pre-nerf does 385 max damage w/its slice and 33% powerup.

My guildies pre-nerf krayt does like 480 or something stupid.

Thanks for your help.

I used to be a master weaponsmith and before I deleted that toon, but before I did I created a bunch of weapons for myself including FWG5. I think my best with no slice had a max damage of something like 270-280.

Thanks again,

Yeah, damage was reduced... I believe they changed the schematic to allow fewer blaster power handlers. That way, less damage, plus you can't stack a bunch of tissues in there to really beef it up anymore.

Fortunately I still have a couple decent FWGs with damage in the mid 200's. Nothing too special,these were just well-built guns at the time. Now, if I see one with 190 max damage, I get excited. Feh!

I don't know if you guys know this but those pre-nerf fwg5s that are in the crate are useless now. Thank the the devs for a stealth nerf for that one.

Apparently this is the same for pre-nerf launchers and scatters. If you have a crate of these, you may get an e-mail when you try to remove an item from yourcrate, which is now a very expensive end table.

"Thank the the devs for a stealth nerf for that one."

The developers put a lot of skill points into the "stealth nerf" skill tree, and they are trying to get the most mileage from their investment.

I just started playing again after 5 months away.
My FWG5 does 61-261 2.0 spd sliced. Luckily not in a crate.
Just got it repaired up to 890 today. Now I don't want to use it because it's so rare. blah

I do believe that they removed the krayt tissue from the schematic and also changed the power coupler portion of it also. My pre nerfs are great, some of which are a legendary tale on Ahazi

75-360 at 0.8 with a min/max dmg pu 61-276 normal)....that is great for popping imps on my server.
