I use Scopes in every weapon that requires scopes.



Stocks I only use by customer request.

Is that a standard stock or an advanced? I was playing around a bit with standard rifle stocks today using SR 691 wood and 965 steel, which is about as good as the materials can get, since wood caps at 700, and I couldn't get any better than +12 damage and .4 speed (plus the 20 HAM). Didn't seem worth it.


Of course, I'm an Expert, not a Master. Do the extra three experimentation points help that much?

yes, yes it does

all the peeps who post their stats are master (probly) so just compare what you are making to them and ask yourself if it is worth it

i think it makes a huge difference

Some ordered a t21 from me. I suggested a stock(to make it look bigger)


person was happy corse i sold the gun for 10k



First of the buyer didn't care about the stats(he wanted it on a wall) used some reg power handlers and some crapy steel


socks make furniture quality guns look cool as well as scopes

I personally don't use stocks or scopes because of outrage ham costs especially if you use both on them. I'm on bloodfin and alot of the coustermers are really picky about max damage and speed i don't blame them. I think alot of the weaponsmith take advantage of adding stocks to the weaponsto gain extra damage.Mostly do the the coustermer seeing the weapon with more damage so it must be better. But i tell you what Janke Radno doesn't bend people over and i never will so safe to say i don't like them sorry if you want them send me email for a special order. nuff said

I do on about half of my stuff, and I clearly state in in the name (ee3 w/stock and scope). Some people like to use these while on mounts since no specials can be used...and also since the patch of HAM uses for specials are supposed to regenerate faster, the extra hit from the stocks are good for some.


Hmm take the stock out of the crate first...I was wondering why they weren't showing up on the final product.

Does the scope and stock show up on the EE3?

It does since November patch when hand-crafted with a stock that's not inside a crate. Same limitations as scopes.


HAM costs in the patch were in patchnotes despite being removed from the actual patch a week after it went to TC. Stocks are still worthless.

YEAH, DEF USE ADVANCED not to mention i'm using low SR link-steel both resources r like a little under 700, so would be more than excited to snag some decent link-steel alum, besides, the stock is basically the same damage of low-end krayt, ignore the speed i say, slow = more fun!!!
