I got a ion type pistol from the avatar paltform, sorry can't remember the exact name but it look like a ray gun and had 335 base dps, and it was certified to any lv50 player.


I made a renegade pistol for my master smuggler a week before, i'm a 12 point smith with best resourses on the server and i used 110 damage krayt tissues, and that gun only has 325dps... the future looks a bit bleak for weaponsmiths!

you realize, of course, even if we got limited use schems, under the current system what we craft would not reach the DPS/SAC level of these weapons. i don't necessarily see getting the schems as the big deal, but having either our stuff upgraded of the reward stuff down graded. obviously i would prefer our stuff be upgraded. down grading wreaks too much of a stench known as "nerf"...

which pistol is that? remember, the pistols i made Joras have about 25-30 more SAC than any quest reward also.

most PvPers would trade 30dps for -20SAC...

I've crafted 372 dps FWG5s, though much higher SAC 103 if I remember right.

i've done some tests on low SAC weapons, and they come at a HUGE cost to DPS. i'm not sure if the community at large is ready to see or experience that change.


affecting DPS, with last 3 points in SAC = 306dps High Cap Scatter, 98SAC (base krayt used)

affecting SAC, with last three going to speed (except on final build) = 273dps High Cap Scatter, 82SAC (base krayt used)


the last test i will run is magnifying speed on components, and then stealing one or two points from damage in the final build.


it takes 8 points to get SAC on a pistol component to -8
there are two SAC reducing components, which = 16 total points to reduce a total of 24SAC
it takes three points to get SAC to 0 on a pistol component, leaving 16SAC to be reduced
there are three to four points left after "near maxing" dmg on a final build
each point knocks off 3 SAC
you need 4 or 5 poinst to achieve the same SAC in a final build as you would using the components

Ran a couple tests, I'll get the results on soon, though I decided to max out damage and then experiment SAC on my personal Featherweight FWG5 using 164 Gorax shard, 91 SAC instead of 101.

Also, with the new resource system in place, featherweights > normal FWG5s, on Flurry at least, not just because of added accuracy but due to actually having better % experiments as well.

I did not buy ROTW, as honestly I believe since it comes with JTL anyone who purchased JTL should get the planet of Kashyyyk for free, but I need some information to be able to present to the DEVs. Those of you with guildies and combat alts who have done the missions and gotten the weapon, please post all the stats on each reward weapon so I can have a comparison of what our average stats are compared to the average stats of a quest reward. Thanks!





hi. i didnt get a chance to welcome you to your new position here. Your doing a real nice job so far..


i wouldnt mind seeing all the weapons looted from kashyyyk period.. cl levels stats and locations. i do have the expansion but as a WS its hard to get out there and do quest. And im master Pistoleer so i been reading into ppl's threads on what has been found. And seen some weapon names i didnt see on the test center.And to any one who isnt a weaponsmith im not looking for this info to get the weapons and make mad profit off them like most think we do all the time. I like them as much as any other. And the fact we cant make them isnt to much of a bother to me. So if you looted something or got a reward and its a weapons. post it please. i will make a new thread for this.. And if anyone in on tarquinas with thes epistols and want to sell contact me. I will buy em for right price and a fair price.


Again i would like to welcome Mor-Dan to the coro position and if you need anything ask me in pm. i as well have open PM policy and enjoy helping others.


thanks guys enjoy the game!
