And even still, that 200K one is most likely a middle grade rifle. I've seen the higher end DXR rifles going in the million plus credit range. To think, you'd have to spend a whole buff session running Janta/Mokk Shaman missions so you could buy one!

I've seen them for 500K and up too. What I don't understand is why they are so expensive. Is it the range? Accuracy? Are they harder to build? I'm thinking it would not be an issue with resource usage because all the weapons pretty much use the same materials. So why is it so much more expensive then the T-21?






actually it is a multitude of factors that affect the dxr6b - they require loot components to build (not rare components though)


if they are looted they can carry nasty DOTs


the schematic is a quest item or a loot drop


resources I am given to understand are fairly normal outside of the fact you need to have loot components (so no large factory runs) and the schematic is rare.

I see. So they are not stock weapons at all. That explains it. Thanks for that info.

im also a weaponsmith and the resources are slightly worse than normal on some servers that does have something to do with price. the schem is loot dropped at geo and so are the needed cubes. this and the recent spawn fix at geo will only make these rifles more expensive



And DE-10 here, he's the shepherd protecting my righteous a55 in the valley of darkness. Or it could be you're the righteous man and I'm the shepherd and it's the world that's evil and selfish. I'd like that. But that ain't the truth. The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin'. I'm tryin' real hard to be a shepherd.

I have a couple "backups" that are mid-400's. Because you are an avid forum contributor, I'll let go one of them if you're on my server.






those are some pretty nice backups.... where do you shop?

Thanks... my top two are max damage 492 and 489 (without PUP, but are damage sliced).
I have agood friend who is aweaponsmith.I kinda had an advantage, as I am master smuggler and slice for him sometimes. He usually gives me one or two of the good ones I slice for helping him out. But unfortunately, he isn't practicing as much as he used to. I'd mention his name, butsince he isn't as active as he used to be,he may not want the tells and he may or may not be well-stocked.He works a lot with Pope on Eclipse... so you might try him. I think Pope has several shops... there is one near the Dantooine Mining Outpost, but I don't remember the direction (facing theMission Terminal in the MOP,go about 800m out the gate to theright). My friend still likes tomake "special" weapons every now and then. I think he just auctioned a 745 dmg Acklay Power Hammer on the forums for several million, and kept one that is 800+.

It has a lower acc curve than a t21 so people cannot just blind you and close in to negate your accuracy. They are faster also so no need for a speed slice if u are at 92 rifle speed or there abouts.


I currently carry one that has a damage slice and a +87 kt in it. 4.1 228-578 no PU accurate at +114@52 m.


If the target is not wearing a PSG, use the jawa.. at range and with a PSG, use the T21.. but when he is with a PSG at 10-30m and on the run.. u want a DX disruptor.





They take 6 krayt tissues.
