well that cant be right I remeber the exact words from the devs:
"If you had a very good weapon before the cu, you will still have a very good weapon after the cu"




It can be right... its just a matter of point of view.






It is not quite to that point, I on TC-Chilly used some 57 tissues and got a faster gun, within 60-70 dmg of my Exceptional that was converted. So I would day if you found some 120-130dmg tissue sets you can easily surpass any Exceptional T21 that was converted (if they don't change the conversion algorithms)




algorithm was updated so that it is now 1 -> 20% better then the best crafted for exceptionals

I'd like to see some hard data from some new converted servers before I'd believe it.

Wowsers. That's a drastic change on that T21 and a definite variance on the Pistol... I'm assuming the weapon respecs will be balanced out a bit more before live?

actually that seems to be about what they are aiming for


things to consider:

1) what tier does the weapon convert to

2) what is the max craftable level post CU

3) legendary must be 1-20% max better then max craftable

4) how close is the current weapon to max craftable -> convert to same level post cu


a low level weapon pre cu that gets moved up will be damage enhanced

a high level weapon pre cu that is not top tier will be damage reduced.

How can they tell what is the max possible for a crafted weapon? I know there is a max on the resources that could be used and the slice, but I was unaware of a max for the tissues used.

They check, and will flag what the best on the server is... This is what they mean by the max possible...

Anyone who had sense would destroy this type of game breaking weapon as soon as they looted it.

Those would be the same developers who said that progress towards unlocking your Jedi slot under the old system would count in the new system? :-/

I don't mind if my T21 does less damage, I'm more worried about something silly happening, like not being able to use it at all.
