If you get a SPEED slice, I think the ACCURACY improves too. You might be able to stick that bleed a little easier.

And slicing doesnt degrade the condition faster by much, if any.

from what I've seen on the pikeman boards (who are the experts on dot weapons :smileyhappy it seems like the dot will still work if it is at 1/1.

All reports I've seen on the effects of slicing are to the contrary and suggest that slicing does increase decay rate. I've also never heard of a speed slice increasing accuracy. This is not to say that I've got the dope on every intricacy in the game, but I've done a fair bit of smuggling (as much as this game includes) myself and have researched slicing enough to have never even seen the word "Accuracy" in any discussion regarding slicing results. That same experience as well as that same research have yielded a number of indicators and mentionings that slicing will speed up decay.

JZ...
I personally do not know, and probably should not have posted that. That came from some comments I saw on the Smuggler Forum. I don't remember which posts or how reliable they were. I do remember thinking to myself "Really?" when I read them.I do a lot of slicing, so I will start watching the results closer. I don't usually take time to look at the "before" stats, then slice, then compare them to the "after" stats. But I will do that for a little bit to see if there is any validity to that.... I shuld know better than to take everything at value in these forums!

pretty good

Ranged defense, extremely low HAM,excellent poison, short range : good for PvP.

Too bad for the low dmg and low precision at long range, but you can't get it all.

It does, -1 uses on a weapon = unlimited DoT applies regardless of whether or not the weapon is broken. Pretty nice DoT on that, not the best ive seen dropped from a krayt but really damn good none the less.

I'd rather have that CDEF than one of those T21 with 1500 max damage or whatever. Sure, it'd be fun to kill five people at once with a strafe2, but after the T21 breaks, it's gone. The CDEF will keep going forever (or until they patch it sobroken items lose DOTs).
