Figured it might make sense to start another thread instead of getting my last thread off track.
From the other post about how much rifles cost, I realize I will be living with my current ALR for awhile.
My max damage is 975, +17 accuracy, some wound %, and decent speed.
I am a noob and probably always will be so trying to figure out how toset up my rifle for the best damage vs. speed that I can get out of what I have.
Thanks,

I am thinking my first post didn't clearly state what I was looking for.
If I have a rifle that is very short of Damage Cap, has ok speed, capped SAC, Accuracy + 18.
How should I use Slices and powerups to make it a better weapon?
Thanks,
Omaplata

not too horrible of a weapon, here we go:
L3 Damage slice: 1053 Damage @ 60% customization
L1 Speed slice: 2% faster @ 80% customization
L1 Crit Strk slice: 3% Crit. Strike Chance @ 100% customization
I personally don't like damage powerups, but if you absolutely wanted to cap damage, do this:
Have an artisan custom make you 13% damage powerups. This will cap your rifle at 1185 and give you a smaller speed penalty.

My bad, just realized that wont work, L2 speed slice is 25% not 20, lemme refigure a different setup...

What am I thinking, I better go home, been at work too long. You would use the same 13% damage powerup, it just wouldn't be AS fast because you'd have to use the 1st slicing scheme I mentioned above (L3 Damage, L1 Speed, L1 Crit Strike)

Further more... if you get doc buffs, specifically adrenaline, your speed will be insane, so don't worry toooooo much about speed.

well you can go with a full speed slice for 12% speed boost and then use a +dmg powerup, that shoudl make that rifle very decent depending ong the powerup and you stats
