I am looking to have a Krayt T21 made.... I also have an illegal core booster, so what I really want to know is what the damage cap on a T21 is and whether the cap can be exceeded thru slices, or if it is only for crafting. Basically so I know what to use my core booster for.

Thanks for any help.

damage cap for t21 is 1182 or 1184, not sure. the damage slice CAN'T go over that cap, so don't wast the core booster or whatever on such a weapon, go for speed slice instead.

Only legendary weapons from pre-cu times can get over that cap if the converted lucky, but don't think many such weapons exist

you can always have the ws experiment for speed and sac, then get your damage up w/ a slice.

you cannot slice sac...

How you manage this partly depends on what level krayt tissues you have. From recent experiments I think any tissue in the 150 range (or higher)can be crafted by a 12pt weaponsmith (with good resources) into a SAC and damage capped rifle.

Have him/her craft:

82 SAC (cap)

1,184 damage (cap)

Any remaining points into speed.

This should give you something around 82 SAC with a min-max in the 505 to 1,184.

Then slice all the way up speed, 12%.

Take your illegal core booster and sell it for $1 million or more (what our server is bringing)!!

You could go 82 SAC, then bring damage up part way planning on finishing it off with your damage slicing. This would then allow the WS to experiment more into speed AFTER the SAC was met and your base damage. The problem with this approach is......once you get to a certain speed, even with 82 SAC, your going to eventually trash your action bar if your spamming 2 rifleman shots back to back (different timers). So, speed is good.....but at some point it does you no good. What having decent speed on a rifle lets you do (say 12% speed slice) is then use a top end damage pup (34%) that will drop your speed but take your max damage to around 1,350.

The other slice factor is the chance for a critical hit. The first slice on this is 3% chance. Not sure on the second level. I have seen +Critical+ come up when I hunt somethings but I don't see the damage double (what I was told was suppose to happen) nor do I see any impact in the combat log. But, if that ever works, would be huge...particularly in PVP.

IF it ever works being the key there.

6x166, -.52 are the tissues I have do you think i will be able to cap out everything?

And does anyone know a WS and a Smuggler professional and good enough to trust with this on Kettemoor?
