I guess you could call it an exploit, but its one I myself learned of unintentionally. Thing is it's hard to get into the situation where you can do that unless you have a really fast spawn. I hate to post instructions on how to do it, but I'll say dont hang around large piles or corpses and you should be fine.

Hey guys, I was out hunting bad guys today and I got swamped by about 4 or 5 greater desert womp rats. So I used my area attack 2 on them, and here's what happened. If you were thinking about becoming a swordsman, I think this is the kick in the pants you need.

*Note, I was running the game in 1600x1200 res, so I had to manually resize the pictures to fit under Image dumps 200kb limit. I'll be posting the full blown up pic's on my own website, when the stupid upload button decides to get itself fixed.


Enjoy!


This is the damage I did to a womp rat in one hit.

This is the aftermath of my attack on the lair.

The Aoe corpse pile thing CAN be done with ranged weapons.... in the geocaves i saw rifflemen strafeshot2 for OBSCENE amounts of damage... its a bug thats pretty ugly.

Ive also done it in the geocaves on huge piles of corpses too with aoe3... its nasty and i was just told what was hapening...

It also works with NPC attacks, I had a Geonosian spawn with a sonic blaster and hit me for 14k with fanshot.

Got hit by an Alert Driodeka for 25k. There were like 8 corpses and 6 player corpses around me. Funny thing is that that would have never happened had someone left that agro downstairs.

Back when LLC's used to get the 2.5x damage mod against rifle users we could get some really sick numbers on KD'd rifle users. Having your bounty mark pull out a rifle was a sure sign that the job would be easy - KD him and use the LLC for a stacked 1.5x and 2.5x damage bonus on top of single 2 which was already hitting for 5K-8K damage.

ive seen my friends and i hit lairs for 20k plus its not odd and for some reason i remember seeing them hit in the 40k area... i personally have hit desert razorbacks for about 13k in a second over all 3 ham bars. soo thats not all that much damage. but maybe by a swordsman it is

Nothing can beat the number on that lair, though. It's impossible to get a number higher than that unless they start using 64-bit integers (or unsigned 32-bit ints, which interestingly enough it seems they are not).

But yeah, I think 17k for a normal, non-freakish hit, was done by a pikeman with the 2.5x melee mod on a KD'ed rifle-holder. I hit 13k on a standing rifle-holding tusken raider once.

Which is why the dmg on the lair was a bug, That dmg has come up in many threads with many different weapons. The lair actually took no damage from the hit. As for the hit on the rat, seems we all agree that it was the AOE bug. Funny how they happened so close together though...makes one wonder if the fomulas are somehow related.

I have no doubt it's a bug.

eewwwwwww. Don't forget people, I posted 2 links, 2 different images. I know some of you are saying that 11K isn't that much damage, but look at the second one where I hit max damage.
