Hi guys, I am a new master rifleman, i had fun with the grind! I have a few nice rifles but i am worried about going through them too fast. Any of you vets out there want to share knowledge on weapon repair, how often? how to? that sort of thing. Thanks!

When repairing your weapon you can do it your self, or you can get your local weaponsmith to do it. Weaponsmiths stand a slightly better chance at repairing your rifle. There is also a force-sensitive branch that increases your shances of repairing weapons. As far as how often, you should repair it when your weapon is between 25-50% condition. If your weapon is less then 25% or less, it becomes more risky and if it's not below 50%, then you are repairing too often which isn't good either. I couldn't find the link that TH posted about this, but this is pretty much what he said. Someone else might know where it's at.

I repaired a DXR6B with 645 dmg at520/994 condition and it fell apart. Now I don't even try until I'm at the 20-25% mark. I won't waste another one!

lol, I have the worst luck with those things. I made myself a nice krayt DXR-6b, got a nice damage slice on it, went to the geo caves, destroyed it in about 2 hours, repaired it and it fell apart. A krayt weapon that lasted for 2 hours of fun and loot.

That's a terrible story...sorry that happened to you. On my high-end weapons, I repair at 75% and have never failed. I can't guarantee that means anything, but it seems the higher the condition the higher the likelihood of a successful repair. I do have + repair mods on a set of clothing in my shop, so I may have an advantage, not sure.

lol. I've lost 2 krayt weapons back to back once. I didn't even use the other 3 uses on my 100% repair tool. It must have been jinxed.

I've heard numerous times from weaponsmiths that their extra repair mods don't work, is this true? Have they been fixed or somethin? How bout the FS repair branch, does it help?

I don't know. I'm usually to lazy to take my weapons back to my alt to get repaired. However, my WS has never failed yet and TH says WS's get a bonus.
