Thread: Conversion of powerhammers with the CU!

Well unfortunetly for you, youll prolly get screwed... the fact is its the best for the rest of the game. 1300max dam pikes, and 1000 max damage PH should have never exiisted. It wouldnt be too bad if the were more avialable like 1 in 100000 as opposed to 1 10000000. It gives the uber rich too much of an upperhand. It keeps the rest of the playerbase down.
An additional 20%-70% damage is great, but weve been spoiled with 35% damage slices and 30% pups and ADK's. I think the devs would agree that this was never meant to happen.
this is BS.
But First of all, it is test so let's hope the conversion is messed up.
Back to this post, c'mon! Every weapon if basically identical in the CU, all approximately same DPS at the master/elite certifications.
I play two toons, a Swordsman/Pikeman and a Pistoleer/BH. It's the diversity of weapons that makes few people better than others, and there is nothing wrong with that. If you're a jedi right now, you care about what weapon that BH has equipped. After CU, you know that no matter what weapon he has, it's going to hit you for about 420-450 DPS. If you PvP, you care about what weapon you're going against now, after CU, you know that no matter what weapon he has, it's going to hit you for about 420-450 DPS.
Go out and get yourself the loot/components or whatever it is you need to get you that Uber weapon yourself. I started this game about 3 months ago and I've already made enough creds to buy my BH a high power DE-10....the rich don't get richer, they just work at making their toons better instead of waiting for an all out nerf on the people who make something happen.

not only are your hammers (and mine 928) but crafters will have no reason to bother making enhanced ones. The hammers are capped and the slicing is capped. An enhanced hammer will get a lesser slice while a standars crafted one will get a better slice.
this is true. Weaponsmiths got the shaft along with armoursmiths. Use those nice weapons now, in a few weeks everyone will be equal in weapons no matter what it seems

YES! lets make it so easy to get the best things in the game there is no incentive to play the game!!! Why try and loot bones to make a great hammer or make some cash and buy one??? Lets make it really easy for everyone to be excactly the same!!!
I'm tired of people complaining about uber weapons, if you don't like it go loot one or the means to make one, yeesh.
), but I worked my arse off for it and I deserve to stand apart. That's one of the things that made this game great, but now everything I worked for (armor and weapons mainly) is going to be stripped down and made equal to everyone else's cheap crafted JUNK.

actualy as a Weaponsmith some weapons have better resources then others. and the only weapon so far that i can craft that is a master lvl weapon that is better then the frogs is the power hammer. all the other ones fall short of this. yes there are better reasourses on live for some of these weapons but the majority of them are about the same.
also what this post doesn't say is what is the speed on the new hammers? the best that i can craft without any enhancements is i think 2.63s 493-1013 or something like thatnot as good as i will be able to make them on live but still close. I just have better copper for the power hammer. and the steal i need for the cores. keep forgeting the name of it.
but it looks like we still will have one of the strongest weapons. not because of that our stats are naturally higher then the others. but the fact that our weapon has the best reasoures to make it. the frog weapons in most cases will be better then crafted. in but the ph is better then the frogs weapons.
