I havent read the whole thread, but you should know the answer to this.


First of all, as I know at least one person said, slicing will only improve it. And I liked the point that even if it is a speed slice, so what? Maybe the Combat Rebalance will make that worth something.


Secondly, this is a gun you will want to last as long as possible. Powerups will ruin itmuch faster. No pups.








I thought weapon decay was linked solely to the output damage of the weapon, i.e. a 33% damage slice will make a weapon decay just as fast as a 33% damage pup.


As far as PvP goes, I will never fire a weapon without a pup on it. You generally shoot less shots while PvP'ing than PvE'ing and every shot counts.

Not so, T.... That's why I posted a new thread pointing to the following thread, and was surprised I got NO responses:


Thunderheart talks about weapon decay and mentions slicing
