Base DPS being one example, anyone can whip out calc on windows and add min to max divide by 2 then divide by speed.......

Strange, i always was too lazy for the "divide by 2", my numbers were not DPS, but worked well for comparing weapons, too.

It'll never return to the way it was - and soon WS will be ruled by those who just want to churn out a few weapons for the masses to make the pile of cash. Those who did it for the love of it are dropping like flies.

Talking of low IQ players, I had a mail earlier from someone saying that me charging 99,999,999 for 100k of resources was totally outrageous and that I was a disgrace. The fact that he'd gone from my sales vendors and into my workshop didn't seem to occur to him.


And before anyone comments on the storage vendor issue.... I have Master Merchant, and I will use my vendors however I please while I have the SP to do so.

Now i stock :


DL44XT


Adv laser rifle


T21


Laser carbine


EE3 (only because they are among my fav weapons)


Blaster fists


Scatters


Republic blasters (also one of my favs)


Featherweights


E11


Now pre CU i tried to stock those +


Laser carbine


Vibro knucklers


Scythes


Geo hammers


powerhammers


2 hand curved swords


stun batons


gaffi sticks


DE-10's


Geo blasters


DXR6b

and a lot of these in enhanced version, but since the CU people need no different weapon for different situations. on my alti only use a gorax FWG5.

Pre cu when i had him as a rifleman i had a laser, jawa, t21, dxr6b now people only need a laser rifle. It would be a matter of using the Dxr6 for juvi krayts, t21 for the other krayts, Jawa ion or T21 usually for PvP unless there was a stacker with a PSG when the Dxr6b would come in handly it slipping right past the PSG and usually coming out with very good acc mods.

When i was a m.pistoleer i used to have 2 - 3 different energy pistols, DE10 for all out damage, republic if i needed the 0@64range mod, striker or launcher for NS hunting, DX2 for most pve since acid was rarely resisted, Geoblasterfor occasional use in PvP or ifsomething PvE vise had high vs the other damage types.

Now thats all gone and we have a game which a 2 year old can figure out in about3 minutes of playtime, way to make combat more diverse, more challenging and faster since everyone ragardless spends 5 seconds now and again getting action back with food stacking gone.

You are not alone in this feeling. It was not long after the CU went live when I realised this toon was going to be more of a support toon and my alts would be my 'fun' fighting toons. I tried making quite a few of the different weapons and it was not long before I realised that only a handful actually sell well. I keep a rather low inventory now. I will make enhanced weapons and a few runs of the most popular. My smuggler alt used allowed me to carry a wide selection of sliced weaponry...but slicing is broken/nerfed, so those sales are next to nothing (not worth the efforrt). My MWStoon is now more for special orders from guildmates and major weapons support for my alts and my very close associates. It is sad...I have a huge stockpiles of the best resources ever from my server and I just don't want to bother mass producing justthe few weapons actually purchased. I am having morefun fighting and selling loot and resources post-CU.


Maybe such a break will re-inspire me.

Wow....There is alot here. I know I quit making vks. I make massani and blaster fists for the novelty of them. I dont make so many of the weapons that I used to either. But I do like the new crafting engine. I just wish they would revert some of the weapon types back so they were all energy.

LOL...there are some people on Valcyn charging 100 CPU for resources, even grinding resources. So 45,034 units of Duralloy steel cost 4,503,400 credits. Sometimes, I'll see 3,050 units of Copperfor 305,000 credits. I'm not sure why they charge that way, but I'm pretty sure they don't make many sales. They're just adding 00 at the end. Most vendorssell the exact sameresources for 20 times less. I honestly think resources should never go more than 4 CPU, but that's my opinion, even for the excellent ones. If those vendors are for storage then I suggest they hide the vendors, disable vendor search, and name them something like "Not For Sale" HEHE that's what I do...good story though, one of the funniest I've read in a while
