Over at the rifleman forums, we've heard a rumor that weapons can now be sliced to add range...


Any thoughts, stories, experiences with this?

It's just that, a rumor, and nothing more. It may happen with the smuggler revamp (whenever the hell that happens) but no one really knows for sure.

Needless to say, range is a rifleman's bread and butter. That's why we're trying to get to the bottom of this.

For serious?




AFAIK - no









YES you can ... I'm 100% on this ...

I have a master smuggler and have done two slices on weapons with the message...

"You have increased the range on this weapon by 10%"


This is how you get extra distance.... with a carbine which usually hits at 35m ... i can fire at 50m...


Same for rifles... above the target you still see "out of range" but you can still hit the target.

ROFL yes it does indeed say you increase the range but what follows after that is "you have incresed the range of damage by 24%"


The only way to increase range is by using the cyborg arms.


I've done many Post CU slices and there ALL still speed and Damage.

Good enough for me. Sounds like our chain is getting yanked to see how much we can drool.
