I have a DE-10 made with 160 max dmg tissues which came out to be around 450 max damage unsliced. I won't be using it until the CU goes live (dropping crafting and picking up pistoleer). The question I face is whether to slice it now or wait until the CU and/or smuggler revamp.


What do you guys think?

If it were me, I would wait... especially if you want damage enhancement. Since you're waiting anyway, it only makes sense to me to wait to slice it.



"Jedi claims of being "broken" are like saying "But my TV isn't widescreen! It's broken! My TV can't show high-def pictures in 1080i, it can only do 720i! It's broken!" Meanwhile, crafters are saying "We'd really like to have a TV that's larger than 12" and gets more than 4 channels and doesn't constantly lose vertical control", and entertainers are saying "Can we get some color instead of this B&W piece of junk?" And smugglers? We're listening to radio programs of "The Shadow" and "The Abbot and Costello Comedy Hour" and hearing FDR's Fireside Chats. We don't even HAVE a damn TV, much less a broken one or a "broken" one by Jedi standards. I'd LOVE to be as "broken" as they are." - The Legendary Solo4114

Thanks guys, I'll take your advice and wait.


Btw, if the CU is planned for May 5 (prolly later though), when is the smuggler revamp planned for? I couldn't find an approximate date on the forums.

schematic and barrals (yes theres 2 types ) are dropped in the death watch bunker. 2 barrall types are a white and yellow version (cand be identified by the colour of the parts text). Since its such a special weapon tho most tend to go for krayt tissue to enhance it more. All together a top of the range uber de-10 can go for millions. Check your suppliers and vendors, failing that buff up and head to DWB.

As a Dev would say... "soon".
But I'd say the revamp will come three to six months (or more) after the CU is out. We'll probably be one of the last professions revamped. The Devs will find another excuse why they have to push back the revamp. Like the revamp wont benefit us unless the Nuna and Kreetle revamp is out first...

First thing first, DO NOT wait to pick up pistoleer until after the CU. Things will make it a lot harder to grind it to master in my opinion. Start grinding it the last half of April. Second thing weapons are so overpowered now do you honestly think that SOE is going to give us the option of picking damage slices if they are going to be really uber 35% type slices???? I think not. If I were you I would slice it now before 35% slices are a thing of the past.
