I don't think preference it up for grabs in this situation. I see it as one of two things:


(1) Speed Slice so you don't need PUPs (if that's possible) or

(2) Critical Slice because you have no choice and a rough 5% damage boost is better than nothing.

I have a carbine with a max damage of 1063 and a moded speed with pup of under 1.0. I use this for BH player missions. What kind of slice would be best. Can speed go under 1.0? Can you slice past caps for damage? Should I just get critical slice? Thanks for any info.

what is the cap on a E11 carbine? The non-carbineer version, max right now is 1063. Also does the speed slice affect base or moded speed, and what is the differance. Is dps worth looking at if I use specials or what does that number really do in this game.

SonGouki has a post floating about in the Smuggler's Forum, and there is a link in one of the Weaponsmith Forum's stickies about crafting caps.


Speed slicing effects base speed, your +speed is the mod speed after that.


And no, don't use estimated dps as a basis for the quality of the weapon. Max DMG and SAC are the two most important (at least to me)
