Concerning Slicing Cap for POWER HAMMERS
I just made a power hammer using a nice pre-cu Acklay Bone. Since I read this thread first, I figured the crafting cap on damage was 1184 and probably the slicing cap was lower. I therefore stopped experimenting on damage with 2 more possible points into damage, and instead lowered SAC.
Non-sliced hammer turned out maxdamage 1104 I think.
I then had it sliced for three levels of damage which means 8% more, figuring that it would hit the cap at 1184 or possibly lower since slicing cap usually is lower.
However, it sliced all the way to 1193 max damage! And the master smuggler verified that he did not get any message stating that is had capped either.

I'm confused. Can slicing caps be higher than crafting caps?
You never get a message on the slicing cap. That's why the slicer himself hasto watch closely. But to find out if it's capped just multiply the orginal max dmg by .08% then add it to the orginial max and that's ur dmg.
Roger on that slice. That Max damage slice has not been maxed. that is the damage it should have sliced at and did.
