Thread: I have 11 same serial krayt tissues.... what would you do?

My intention is to PvP alot in the future once i hit Master. The tissues are 41 damage and .5 speed. I currently have +6 Armour attachments for speed.
Please give me your advice on what gun/ guns you would make with them. I will of course still continue to PvE when PvP isnt available.
There is a distinct lack of Imperial theme park loot stocks on my server also it seems.
Many thanks.

11 identical, and you're a rifleman......well, the T21 is the obvious choice. Those aren't great tissues, to be honest, but 11 the same is pretty rare. Speed won't be a problem for you at master, so you should probably get the weaponsmith to add an advanced stock as well - the imperial stocks are nice, but if they're rare on your server, the advanced ones will be one hell of a lot cheaper as long as you can afford the HAM and they'll add more damage than the imp ones (albeit at the cost of speed....but again, at master, not a problem). T21 is heavy armour piercing, and suffers less from damage mitigation in comparison to a laser rifle.
Other alternative, if you're not so concerned about PvP, is to trade the 11 tissues you have for 4 better ones, and go for the laser rifle option.
I'd definitely make 2 DXR-6s. Using the right components they can do more damage than a T21 and you can make two instead of one, so your chances for a high damage slice are doubled! Or, like someone else said, make 2 Jawa Ions if you plan to PVP a lot. I do think using themon a T21 is a waste, unless you really really really want a krayt T21. But, please, please do not waste 11 identical tissues on Laser Rifles, and CERTAINLY don't waste them on E11s, dear god. So, again, go for 2 DXR-6s or 2 Jawa Ions. Or that T21 if you really want it.
I made a krayt DXR-6 the other day with yellow cubes and advanced stocks, got a decent damage slice. She does 260-535 damage and with a pup she hits with 301-707 damage.
A T21 is a no brainer for me. Here's why:
1) Out of 50 times that krayt drops tissues you might get 11 identical again. The opportunity to have a krayt T21 doesn't come up often. Also you won't likely see +41's drop in such a quantity ever again.
2) On any given day you can find 6 identical tissues to make a jawa ion.
3) In pvp the ion is only a no brainer when they wear armor. 99% of the people that wear armor take it off after they lose their buffs in a large scale pvp battle where just about everyone goes to the cloning facility multiple times. I frankly only use my jawa when they are wearing composite armor. Even then a lot of people use 80% kinetic 54% energy stuff.
Also keep in mind that the +41 might not seem like much but if you get a 35% damage slice on a 441 damage stocked krayt T21, you're talking about 595 with a 35% damage slice and 791 with a 33% max dam powerup. This is opposed to 400 damage on a non krayt, 540 with a 35% slice and 718 with a powerup.
Its also a nice consolation for a speed slice. In that case you now have a much faster gun than most and still have a nice boost in damage.

You have a VERY rare drop. A Krayt T-21 is almost unheard of. Krayt tissues are needed in any weapon as follows:
One tissue is used in making the schematic for the power handlers. The reason this is necessary is that the power handlers required in the assembly of the "multiple-power handler" weapons must be from a factory crate. So, no way around it, you must make the schematic and run it in a factory.
The power handlers each require one tissue each which are placed in the factory along with the other resources.
ALL OF THE TISSUES USED MUST BE OF THE SAME SERIAL NUMBER OR IT WON"T ASSEMBLE. So, if you split the batch, you have ruined your opportunity to do something like a T-21 because you cannot mix tissue serial numbers.
A T-21 has 10power handlers. You therefore need 11 tissues .... but you are only the second person I have ever heard of that has such a drop. The finished weapon would no doubt be worth millions of creds.
Good luck
