Thread: So now that the CU is a couple weeks old, what are you charging for slicing?

I figure now that we have a slightly better understanding of how things work now. I am curious what is everyone else charging for slicing?


I myself on weapons am doing 250 credits per weapon level. Was 500 but seemed a bit extreme at times.


As for armor I am going on a class pricing system. Recon is 5K per piece. Battle is 10K per piece. Assault is 15K per piece.


Of course the big seller right now is faction points. Since I am only a Staff Sergeant I charge 200 per point.


Spices haven't sold as well as I thought they would since they are pretty much as good as Doctor Buffs now and only have a 30 second downer period.

I had my fill of slicing for the first year after live. I don't slice post-CU any more than pre-CU.


That being said, how do you tell your customer what kind of slice they got? "Ummm, -2% speed slice for you there sir. But it still improved your weapon...really."


Seems like a butt-load of headache to me...more so than it was pre-CU. Maybe I'll give it a go again after the Smuggler Revamp...you know, when hell freezes over.

Flat 10k for each piece of armor or weapon...unless they annoy me then my prices double for each whine or insult.

i generally dont slice right now because the slicing system is fuXord ATM.


although that same bug is giving CRAZY DPS increases on some sliced weapons.



I think 10k sounds about good too.

Personaly i consider it unethical to slice right now. Since we have so little confirmation on slicing and what is going on. I tell anyone that comes to me to wait ....

Before i slice i let people know that all i will be able to tell them is what i sliced spd or damage. If they agree its 5k per slice anything i slice. Then i discount for large numbers or items

not slicing until it is fixed or revamped or whatever. Bad enough listening to the griping on a speed slice when things were working correctly.... don't even want to imagine it now.

I hung up my tools also and am telling anyone that asks that they don't want their stuff sliced at this time.

All it took was a 0% speed slice on an exceptional nightsister lance. Not slicing again till there is a patch note saying "Fixed slicing system to correctly modify items." or something to that effect.

That said, I'd still be charging 10k each if the system was working.
