okay i'm on test crafting and slicing my own weapons.
and today i noticed after getting a 7% damage slice on my 1003 damage Power Hammer i realized something. the damage on it recived extra was only 21 extra damage on it... it came out to 1024
now 7% out of 1k is not 24damage it is 70damage... also it seems the same thing with damage powerups. i have made 25% damage powerups and putting them on a 1k power hammer and have it only raise it by 130 damage which is half of what it should be...
is anyone else noticing this? or is this working as intended?(which i highly doubt it is.)

Well if you had been following this stuff in teh dozens of other threads
.... You would know that for some reason only they know the Devs have put a CAP on the max damage of each type weapon. So if it is close to the max and you get a really good slice or PUP... You still don;t get more then teh Max hard coded into the system.... We can only hope that someday they will come out of their drug induced stupper and fix this and teh hundred or so or problems and bugs they are going live with in less then36 hours.

I don't know about anyone else, but I've stopped slicing my gear for the indefinite future. There's no way I want my shiney new XT, Proton-Carbine or whatever to be shackled with a goofy, possibly-buggy slice before the flood of post-revamp, post-expansion bugfixes come in.
Well, I won't slice my own gear. The customer pays his money and takes his chances.

i know there is a cap however i thought because the reason i no longer get 35% slices was supposed to end this. i figured a 7% slice was still good for t he system because it should have been within the cap range.
and i figured that the cap range was hit when i used a PU that was 25% damage but from a 7% damage slice? that seems more like a bug to me. ii was more like a 2% damage slice rather then a 7% damage slice.
