I know that slice kit quality has never had an impact on slice% (I used to be a master smuggler) But with these crappy slices these days, is it possible that kit quality might make SOME difference now that the CU is here? Anyone experiment on this?

Not that I've tested it, but I would have to say no.

The current state of slicing is just a temporary thing in the wait for our revamp where there will be a new slicing interface.

"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

Nope. No impact.

There are a few theories going around. The most prevalent seems to be that a slice now increases whichever attribute you get to the max for that crafted weapon. This, however, doesn't explain the rumors of -% slices or the one report (that I know of) of exceeding the cap by slicing a capped weapon.

Since returning post-CU I've done a few with my old 99% pre-CU tools and some new post-CU 99% tools and still had crappy slices (I'm used to 11% being my oldminimum still).
