sorry about that last post i pushed enter

fellow rifleman,

something i know we are thinking and have read in this forum before.

the t21. i just don't understand this gun.. sure it has heavy AP but how often do u actually come arcoss somethign with a Heavy armor? most t21's i have seen the stats are soemthing like this.

118-330 dam 7.1spd 71 mind.

now i use my laser spd 5.8 35-367 61 mind, unsliced i think the t21 should be beefed up or something...

i mean the t21 repeating rifle is described as a stealth seige weapon. i just don't see this. at all.

I don't know if you have been away or something but the T-21 has gone through many changes recently. It was proved to be too powerful before with like 700dmg when sliced. As far as AP heavy creatures there are some, but more importanly is the damage bonus mod. given for the higher AP.

well lets see, t21 vs. the laser rifle with the stats that you give here. this is against a zero armor mob with no resistance.

laser rifle 55-572

t21 231-646

now this doesnt tell the whole story lets look at dps. if i remember how we sold it to the developers it was (min+max)/weapon speed? please tell me if i am wrong.

so we get a dps for the

laser rifle of 108

and

t21 of 126

i rounded up on any number of .5 or greater.

now i can still out a slice on these weapons and a power up and here is where the t21 really takes off. with a 30% slice and a power up of 30% max and 15% min the t21 leaves the laser in the dust.

i am not saying that the t21 doesnt need a buff but lets wait and see how the new heavy weapons do when they come out.
