OK,


This may totally be in my imagination... it may just be a rut who knows.


Since introduction of the Race Tracks I've been getting an UNUSUALLY HIGH amount of speed slices.


I've been slicing since Pub 8 and have had a 50/50 average. And by that I mean on every 50 items I sliced out of factory crates 25 would be damage and 25 would be speed. It was uncanny. At this point I was completely convinced it was a 50/50 chance.


Since race tracks I've sliced about 75 weapons (all items involved in crafting I personally made) and have had 60 speed slices and 15 damage slices. Now I'm not so sure about the 50/50.


I sliced 2 complete crates of only speed slices. Very painful because they were near perfect Power Hammers!


Am I just in a rut? Is anyone else having this problem?


Has anyone else experienced this kind of rut?

oh yeah... one weird thing... the crates of clamps I've been using since pub 9 were all experimented on getting the result to 60%. I was just goofing around (I know experimenting on clamps doesn't do anything). Besides weapon type,these clamps were the only thing that was different between today and back when I was getting the 50/50. I used the same clamps on an 8piece suit of armor and got 8 enc slices. Not sure if that means anything.

Which means they were either Slicing III or Slicing IV, and they got either an effectiveness slice on the armor (Slicing III and IV) or an encumbrance slice (Slicing III only). The range for effectiveness at Slicing III is 5-20% and for encumbrance it's 5 - 30%. At Slicing IV the effectiveness range is 5-30%.


Not a bug. Not a problem with the patch.

There are missions in which you "deliver an item while hostiles attack you" in every profession. I still don't consider [Smuggler's Alliance] pilots to be Smugglers, nor 'Smuggling' - at least not any more than Rebel Pilots or Imperial Pilots might sometimes "smuggle", with a lower-case s - JFreeman - 10/6/04

i did a LOT of slicing yesterday and today, mostly for guild members, and it included a varied array of weapon and armor types


and for me, the results have been the same, although slightly higher %ages than usual, which I was very pleased about

Ok... I'm probably just in a rut.


Thanks for the input.

Why would you bother to slice if you could get 5%?
