Thread: Post CU DE-10?
Voodez wrote:I was thinking of having one of these made up, and was wondering if anyone has made a DE-10 since the CU? I know it got hit pretty hard in the changeover, but havent heard any stats for a post CU version...On another note, ive just bought a few 94 -0.65 krayt tissues cheap, and im thinking of having one used in a DL44 XT, could anyone be so kind as to tell me roughly what DPS i should expect from these, assuming a good base XT is around 300dps on my server...thanks very much for any assistence!
I think most WS aren't playing around with DE-10s since it would be a waste to experiment on them right now.
As for the DL44 XT, the change to dps isn't as straight forward as you might think. For a non-elemental weapon, like the DL44 XT, quoting 300dps isn't enough. You need to know the min and max damage as well as the speed.
Here's the formula: newDPS = (min + max + tissueDam)/(2 * (speed - (0.1 * tissueS)))
So, if your favorite WS was making 300dps DL44 XTs with min=300, max=900, and speed=2s, then then you get:
newDPS = ( 300 + 900 + 94 )/( 2 * ( 2 - ( 0.1 * 0.65 )))
newDPS = 1294 / ( 2 * 1.935 )
newDPS = 334.37
Heh, I've been looking for this too...
There must be some rich, daring, and creative weaponsmith out there somewhere who's willing to take a chance on a post-CU DE-10, no? ![]()
I mean, it is still level 54 cert, so it should be on about the same level as the DL44 XT and FWG5 and DX2, right?
I'm thinking (hoping) that a post-CU DE-10 with some halfway decent Krayt tissue can probably get into the 900s for max damage and around 300 base DPS.
I had one made post CU by a 12 point smith. Using 75 dmg tissues and a white barrel, the APBH stats were:
Min: 21
Max: 122
Attack Speed: -1.6775796
Attack Cost: 5
and the DE-10 Stats were:
Dmg: 346-825
Accuracy Bonus: 10
Wound: 23%
Est Base DPS 270.69
Special Attack Cost: 116
Thanks for sharing. ![]()
Not great, but not totally awful...
Anybody else?
I've made one DE-10 since CU i don't remember all the stats but here is what i remember they should be close.
Speed: 2.1 or 2.2
Max Damage: 735
Base DPS: 260-270
Accuracy: 10

Soo, HC Scatter x 3 > DE-10 x1. However lets say you paid about 1mil for the yellow barrel/schem. I don't see any reason to make a DE-10 anymore. Guess I need to try a DE-10 & DL44-XT and compare those since they are both lvl54-nocert.
i was asking for a yellow barrel on my trade forum, and someone pointed out the after the CU the barrels drop in stacks like krayt tissue, and that no krayt tissue is yellow regardless of stats now.. their point was that its quite possible yellow barrels wont exist anymore either now. I think they need to give the barrels some viewable stats to make the DE-10 viable again really, enough to get it upto the 360 dps+ range as so its worth collecting the various parts.
