I sliced these weapons last night as a Master Smuggler...


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v179/Shathis/LaserRifle.jpg 6% Speed


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v179/Shathis/Scatter.jpg -1% damage (end result added +1 min & max damage)



http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v179/Shathis/FWG5.jpg -1% damage (end result added +1 min & max damage)


http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v179/Shathis/E11Mark2.jpg -2% damage (end result added +1 min & max damage)


needless to say I was VERY dissapointed with the end results of these slices.

Past few days I was slicing I get nothing but speed. And they are all 0%, 1%, 2%, -2%, yes negative 2%.


Been very borked, so i dont slice for anyone anymore.

I sliced a dl44 xt for -2% dmg.....but increased the DPS from 3xx to over 500!? How is this explainable?

Now that is a bug I would want!





Just sliced a scatter pistol for someone. Said 2% damage and 0% damage. They went from 3xx to 550DPS. (wish it did that on my personal DL44XT, and Renegade)

No one has said anything about being able to reslice weapons already sliced after the Smuggler Revamp. I am not slicing anything until after I hear about the new slicing and all that jazz.

We were told at the Celebration Breakfast that maximums on weapons would be hard caps. That master smiths and high-end materials and tissues woudl be necessary to accomplish the cap, but that only slicing could take it beyond the cap (since slicing is a percentage, it has an effective cap already). My experience is that slicing seems to hit the cap as well. Really excellent weapons get less of a boost from a slice than a peice of junk conversion weapon.

Yeah I dont advertise anymore cause of this as well. Because the average player doesnt come on the boards so they dont understand what is going on with smuggler atm. But there are ones that do understand and pay ten fold to hope for a bugged slice.

Yes they are all coming out with those numbers ... but did you do the math on the weapon after to see if it was correct? The numbers it is displaying ont he system messages are not accurate to what the acutal weapon is. I got a 0% and a 2% for a BH, and both scatters went from 3xx to 550DPS.
