I wouldn't worry about not having customers to sell your pistols to, SWG has over 1 million players, and growing rapidly. If you don't beleive me, go to mos eisley

I no longer buy enhancements, since getting stuck with a 2mill weapon sorta ruins my day.


Whensomeone wants a weapon, i ask for the enhancements the charge a small sum for carfting. Not much work, or money,in it, but its better than filling my house with unsold weapons.


The other day i was offered some fairly good krayt for 4 millions, the looter then proceded to tell me my weapons were too expensive. Seemingly he was unable to see the connection between 4 mill krayt and a 5 mill weapon.

I got a stack of 5 casings for 10K. They damage on them was 173. I take it I got a really good deal then...


Think I should make 5 featherweight FGW5s with them?

With 173 damage I would think about a regular FWG5, only because I'd have a better chance of double capping the featherweights with a higher damage casing.

The biggest problem is the fact that it is a PISTOL. These things only require 1 RC or EC to make and have been flooding markets on every server. Combined with a looted scope and any 10pt smith can still come out with a pistol fairly close to yours.


In the beggining you could ask for high prices but now that the market has been saturated and the number of pistoleers out there is still medium/small the price for pistols will begin to fall.


This is just supply and demand. Atm there is more supply than demand.

Exactly so. You dont see many other weapons made with these things. Now the casings.. honestly there's not muh they go into in the first place. But the energy cells.. pistols. pistols, pistols, pistols, more pistols. Oh hey a rifle! pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol Oh hey an ALR! pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol Oh my god a PFT! pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistolpistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistolpistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistolpistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistolpistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol pistol


Now I mean yeah sure it kinda blows that rifles/carbines/pfts etc all suck up more than one of those expensive powercells. But it's a pretty by and large ignored market from what I've seen. It's common as ice in the south pole to see a pistol made with these things. You dont too often see a rifle, PFT, or other professions weapon go up made with these things. Some folk might think the market isnt there. But if thats the case why did I have a commando come to me and have me make him a PFT custom ordered with cells he brought me?

Same here. 966 66 ones, not selling.


Scatters go better, not above 2mill each though.

yeah I've sold a few, but I'm not buying anymore BH loot, I have an alt and will spend the time if I want some cells or something, then at least I can keep the price lower.

I purchased 2 unsliced Featherweight FWGS5 on Intrepid with higher damage (364-965), higher speed (2.06), same sac and might higher accuracy (65) for 1.5 million each.

I don't think anyone really considers the wound cap as a stat to brag about capping, but if guys are capping speed, damage and sac, that is very impressive.
