clvl54 is the same as a master prof. The level system really screwed up balance becasue you have to master two professions to have enough HPs to he effective in PvP now. I could have a template with 350 base accuracy in all ranged weapons and have better defense than I do, but didn't have enough HPs for it to be viable, despite the fact that I had 9 rows of elite skill boxes. As long as there are weapons with only level requirements on it the game doesn't remain that broke. There are always FOTM's, but we don't want an official Sony FOTM. What's the difference if somebody is level 54 and somebody is a master pistoleer in the quality of guns? The pistoleer would wield the gun better, and the gun would be much more power in his hands, but the level 54 guy should be able to at least pull the trigger on some decent guns too.

Err... no.
The issue is that there is not enough difference between cl54 weapons and master certed weapons.
Exactly. Why make the DX2? It takes more named resources and more subcomponents, yet the stats come out the same as the DL44XT or Adv. Scatter

things could be worse, I mean, thank goodness this isn't talking about melee weapons, huh? They never fixed the limited schematics to make them unlimited after the "no serial number" (krayt, geocubes, geopaste, AV-21 motors, etc) issue was resolved. An issue they openly said at fanfest 1 was a partial reason behind the scythe having 2 uses. But I think we all agree limited schematic weapons should beat the crap out of everyday weapons.

its the same with berzerker rifles, kinda hard to get the schem and barrel but its a CL40 weapon and it now sucks even though it looks very nice

my bane is the geo weapons dxr6-b and geo pistol and cl 40 and cl30 weapons whats all that about both need loot items and combatants demanding over the odds for the subcomponents pushes price up = customer not wanting to spend that much money on a weapon they won't be keeping at master.

IT'S EVERY SCHEMATIC...The Mod Republic Blaster (the unmodded is better with acid dam), the Enhanced E-11 (what's enhanced...can't even use advanced componets), The Hack has never gotten enough love, might as well sell it with a pair of gardening gloves and a pack of seeds. The Berserker is only good for a decoration, I was thinking of painting a few flowers and a peace sign on it. I don't think I've tried to make a DXR-6 post CU, maybe I'll try so I have something else to whine about (see sig.). The Geo Blaster is my ultimate disappointment. I had one that was ADK'ed and just unstoppable, now I wouldn't even prop a door open with it. The Scythe and DE-10 were hallmarks of the master WS, now they have competition that is much more cheaply made.
I got an idea!! Let's make quest and looted weapons that everyone will like so much they will ADK them and never buy another weapon...oh wait...
