Hi there, Ill explain the process ive done so u guys can tell me what ive done wrong, some data may be unprecise as i dont have a great memory ^^, k i bought a dl44xt which max damage was near 800 after 1st phase enhanced power slicing and using a high power barrel the max damage went up to 874, k everything ok till i go and do the second phase slice with the simple kit, it goes down to 820!!! I am master smuggler, i really dunno why or what is wrong here :S If you guys can help me id appreciate it.


Regards guys

The high power barrel increases the damage, but also increases the speed... and a poorly made HPB may result in a lower DPS than before it was applied, if the slower shot offsets the additional damage.


The second slice probably removed the powerup (as slices used to) and so the number you're seeing now reflects the unaltered damage after the slice.

The prob is that the max damage now is lower than initally before been sliced or anything had the weapon (

Ok, maybe you need to clear something up... in your original post you say the weapon had a max damage of around 800, and after 2 damage slices the max damage is 820. To me, that seems higher.


Now you're saying the max damage is lower after the second damage slice than before it was sliced?


You're confusing the bajeezus outta me here, bub.

Don't slice while hopped up on pixie. If you see the components floating around in front of you, put the tool kit down and step away slowly.

lol, well ill clear it up I had a weapon that just bought (with no slicing) was near 800 damage (792 if i remember correctly) well i sliced it once and use a Hgh power barrel so it went up to 876 or so, well after that i get a simple tool kit for the second phase of slicing and it goes down to 846 or so, im worried it might have been the hpb fault so i take it out and now i have a weapon that has been sliced twice (now with no hpb) and that has a max damage of 756 any solution or reason why this must be?



Sorry again, english is not my first language ^^ thanks for the help guys.

The PuP probably did it. I'd recommend removing any powerups from a weapon before slicing it.
