Rifleman Archive

Greetings riflefolks,

I recently got my hands on a small set of lower end krayt tissues (just the +30, -0.3 kind) and rather than join the mighty bandwagon to make Krayt FWG5s I really want to make some rifles. However the only single handler-ed rifle that's worthy it seems is the E11. Though maybe some folks might want a Krayt DLT20a ... ?

My current base E11 rifles come up at 90-171/4.8. So addition of a Krayt would bring the stat line to 90-201/4.5 base. I'm only a low end rifleman so I thought to ask you folks if it's really worth it at all? I am not asking how much would you pay - I'm asking if you'd find this type of weapon useful

I have 4 identical handlers made so I could technically make a laser and an E11.

Regards,

Ker'shakk

I'm rather fond of my Krayt-enhanced E11. I had 4 made. The base wound was around 108-209, spd 4.4. With slice the best one came out to be 118-290, spd 4.4. Way more reliable than a laser and faster than a T21 (which is nice for my non-master self).

Given a choice of having a Krayt E11 ora Krayt Laser, I would rather have the E11. I use my E11 more than my Laser.

Go for the e11 it is a well balanced gun with nice average damage, modest mind usage and Ar2.

Lasers can hit **edit** hard, but way too many times it hits for 300-400 (instead of 1-2k) as a creature is charging your butt.

Its an odd ball balance with the low end damage hits + mind dropping like mad doesn't warrant its use.

I keep a Laser (85-509), E11 (112-213 cond 545/600) and a Jawa Ion (121-232) for energy res.

I rotate them around all the time but 50% of time E11, 40% jawa 10% laser.

i use a T21 for killing everything and a laser for killing lairs so i dont wear out my pricey T21 as much

I have to agree the E11 Krayts are wonderful. I tend to lend toward the Krayt Laser though for (Mind Pool)PVP and spray Strafe2 with the E11 (or DLT20 Krayt) in the back of a large groupdurning PVP. Yet, it depends on my mood. I have some rather sick new marcos I'm working on that are deadly with gun combos

Am i understanding this correctly? The E11 only requires 1 Kryat tissue?

where the hell are people buying these cause i'm stuck with a average t21 and the weaponsmiths are all "backed up" and nothing fancy on the vendors.

That is correct. The E11 is a single handler rifle.

And I want to try provide good rifles, because every man and his dog were going all out with FWG5s. I reckon it'll still be the case when new feeder enhancers start dropping. Cheers for the feedback. I'll try make some E11 krayted rifles to provide for us riflemen

I'll buy one if you're on Corbantis server.

I use a normalversion even. It's the weapon I run around the wilderness with. Very dependable and I can shoot it as fast as a pistol. I toggle that in with a T21, Jawa and Spraystick. Makes a great follow-up weapon . I'd buy a Krayt version in a heartbeat (long as I didn't loose too much money).

what about a krayt tusken?

(i can't wait to get one when they switch it to kinetic damage btw)
