DPS is skewed, go look at max damage and the higher the better. keep in mind that a laser rifle can hit 1200+ with a similar speed. So its above average but not the best.

My T21 is better than any DC-15 I've ever seen. It's got 983 max damage and 448 dps for me, unsliced. Not bragging btw. I think the DC-15's are over rated and way over priced, a good laser rifle is usually better and at a fraction of the price.

The DC-15 is lower damage than a mid-range advanced laser or T21. It is comparable in speed. It is also, from what I've seen, significantly lower in action cost than any crafted T21 or Laser.
So, you've got a lower DPS, but more sustainable fire. Personally, I usually use my very high-damage converted bowcaster, but I believe that the DC-15 certainly has a good place in your arsenal. I'd probably avoid ADK'ing it, as it seems fairly likely that you could get a new one from a player that doesn't want theirs for under the going rate of an ADK -- unless you decide that you really like it and want to use it as a primary weapon.
***EDIT***
In other news, I've been informed that some high end crafted T21s and Lasers can have significantly higher damage than a DC-15, comparable speed, and be experimented to similarly low SAC. So, might want to do some galaxy-wide vendor searching and see what's avaiable. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got some crow to eat.

In comparison to any master level weapon the dc-15 is short. But on the other hand I love the look - see me soon in game using it as a primary weapon.

Any decently made T21 far outlcasses the DC-15 Rifle.
However, the DC-15 Rifle still has decent performance and looks awesome. They're also quite rare on most servers. Those that do have them, aren't willing to let go of them unless you offer something outrageous. I get many /tells asking me what that rifle I'm holding is.
I ADK'd my DC-15 Rifle & Carbine. They look and sound great, especially the carbine's sound effects.
These weapons go beautifully with the Clonetrooper Armors. The DC-15 Rifle looks just right in the hands of Stormtroopers & Scout Troopers.

Looks arent everything you know. I prefer quality. Since I have no use for armor being a TK master I use bio clothes for extra defense and performance. Right now the most effective weapon I have is my T21, which is not an attractive weapon but it's stats are better than most other rifles. Maybe though I'll ask a weaponsmith to customize a ALR for me and slice it so it surpasses any rifle I've ever had. It's too bad they nerfed the DXR6, that was always the coolest looking rifle.

Of course looks aren't everything. Which is why I still have the ever-reliable T21 or E11 Mk.II to get the real work done.
But doing Boba Fett's Clone Relics quests and receiving the DC-15 Carbine or Rifle is really easy. The hardest, longest part, is actually gaining access to Jabba's Throne Room. Getting the DC-15 is much cheaper than shelling out untold credits for a great T21 or ALR.
Also, by my own very weird principles as a Master Rifleman, I will not use an ALR. It will be the T21 when it comes time to get a serious job done.

Hello it is no possiable to get a T21 or an Adv Laser rifle 1200+ damage for it is capped at 1184 max damage, and sliceing will not put the weapon over the cap also.
