Just read this from test center patch notes... does this mean someone has sliced higher than90% effectiveness?:

Smuggler: The maximum effectiveness of sliced armor can no longer exceed 90%.

There has been one person to have openly stated that he has sliced a pair of composite gloves to 100% effectiveness. The forum and screenshotsare in a forum somewhere on this site. I think it was the armorsmith forum. Idont feel like looking again. This created a lot of mess in the forums stating that that would make you a god if you were to get you hands on a full suit of 100%. So the devs probably decided the best way to fix this is with a little armor slicing nerf.

Well i use a dice before i slice and i only cut the 2nd cable when the dice gives me a high number (100 sided dice 98% quality made by human master artisan)...


I usually get slices 25%-30% (and im slicer4, not master smuggler).


Just like you can have a red/blue chance cube and you roll it before cutting the first cable.. for me, i almost always cut the correct cable if i cut the same color as what the cube rolled (you gotta be fast with the mouse though).


I think this game's random chance (or number) generator assigns a certain result for anything chance-based that lasts for about 2 seconds.


So grab that high quality dice, roll it and cut the 2nd cable when you roll a high #. It almost always works good for me.

NOTHING AFFECTS SLICING PERCENTAGES. NOT LUCK, NOT VOODOO, NOT DANCING A JIG, NOT MATERIALS, NOT HAVING SEX FIRST, SACRIFICING A CHICKEN, BARKING AT THE MOON, STANDING BY A CRAFTING STATION, USING /DANCE, OR EVEN *GASP* WEARING HAWTPANTS.

Sorry Vyko, but I disagree...
Hawtpants definetly effect slicing, just like having sex first. It wont change the results, but you'll be much more relaxed and so the possibility of missclicking the wires is lower. Try it.



It's not IF I can do it, it's HOW MUCH you're willing to pay.

well got tired of reading all the posts and is this has been posted then good!


But it is not likely that he has gotten 45% ona weapon without using an exploit, me and my fiance at diffrent times since this game has been out have had chars that are master smugglers. And we have never gotten 45% DMG on a weapon. And yes we have used 99% WUK, 99% Clamps, and 99% laser knives. The only way I know of getting this is to put a power up onto the gun before it is sliced. And yes this exploit still works. And yes it does give you a random chance of getting abover the normal max of 35% DMG, I have seen it on guns and know it works. And looking at the Screenie he posted of the 40% DMG slice, if you notice all text is yellow, now why yellow text??? Hum same color as if you were to say humm put a power up on a weapon, yes I think so.... So that is what i am guessing using an exploit and that is the key to it all!
