I could see the Hack as being a fire weapon. I dont know why.


Electricity on it wouldn't make sense to me. Unless they added some text about it in the description, something along the lines of it being fitted with a little generator to make it more effective.


Cold, same thing. I dont see it being a cold weapon.


Acid -- this is a nice idea tbh. They could say that the Death Watch dip the Executioners Hack in acid, to make it a more effective weapon. It really fits in with this whole feel of assassins.

Hm.. even though theres already a 7 page petition for a new damage type stickied at the top of the forum (which the devs have kindly ignored), I'll sign this anyway.

Who thinks they will use the hack? I bet not many since the Scythe is faster and does more damage. I am posting a petition to change the damage type. Not sure what other damage type, but not another Kinetic weapon. The Scythe is fine the way it is and the addition of another kinetic weapon that does not come upto par with the Scythe shouldn't be in the game. Change the damage type so it could be useful. Post your decisions on another damage type. My two choices would be Cold or Electricity.

/agree completely


Giving us a new damage type could be considered a balance issue, and force us to wait until the combat rebalance to have any change inplemented. Considering the treatment the devs have given ranged slugthrowers, citing balance concerns, I'm completely stunned that the razor knuckler has a new damage type. But that's digressing a bit too much...


AP3 kinetic would do a world of good for us in PvE, and not really affect the PvP (im)balance that gets so many logical changes hung up. The stats of the weapon are not unbalancing if AP3, and are frankly useless if it remains AP2.


The bottom line is that as the hack sits now, it's eye candy. While it's neat to run around with one now (I was lucky enough to have a friend loot the schematic), when the Death Watch bunker opens up and it becomes commonplace it will have absolutely nothing going for it.


I can't imagine that the dev(s) who modeled the weapon and worked on getting it into the game would be happy with the fact that in a few weeks this thing will be completely without worth.
