Powerups don't have anything to do with Max Damage they are based on median damage.
Pistol 300-750 =300+750 =1050/2=525 median damage
525 x 8% = 42 so the new damage is 342-792
In your instance however the Ion Stunner Pistol is Combat Level 50 so the max on it is 754
Thank you for a detailed description!!!
That's exactly what I was looking for.
Most welcome. Juist remember 754 is not the "hard cap" at CL50 just for this gun.
Now to th enext question...why would a smuggler be able to slice a weapon which is able capped? I had thought they would be denied the abliity to slice a stat if it were already at its cap.
Because SOE is an inept bunch of bunglers who are about as clueless as a Dev Team gets?

Actually, I have found that when I try and slice a damage-capped weapon, I get the message "you cannot enhance this weapon any further" or something similar. And it does not allow me to slice it. Surely others have found this too?
