Aside from Krayt Tissues and a FFWS, what is the best barrel and scope that can be put into a Laser Carbine and Elite Carbine. Also, is it possible to have a barrel, stock and scope put in the same gun or can you only use a few? HAM costs are not an issue.

The FFWS will speed up the weapon by about .8, but you'll lose 15 min/10 max damage compared to using 40/40 crafted advanced stocks, so if you were speed capped then you wouldn't want to use FF stocks. Carbines use either the Blaster Rifle Barrel or Advanced Blaster Rifle Barrel as required components. Ask your local Weaponsmiths what their stats are on these. The BRB has a little bit lower damage but will be faster if speed is an issue. Your smith can tell you in advance how they would turn out with the different components. Of course if you could get your hands on some exceptional/legendary Blaster Rifle Barrels that would be nice too, but not too likely. Stocks and scopes are optional components. If ham costs are not an issue, the best scope would be a crafted Advanced Scope. I make mine +5 wound +41 Ideal Range with 17 ham cost. Bear in mind that this will all change post combat where lower ham costs will be essential. The last consideration is the krayt tissues. The higher max dmg/speed they are, the better the carbine will turn out and then of course it's a roll of the dice to see what kind of slice you get. Good luck

Yeah, but I'll likely blow through whatever carbines I get made before the Combat Upgrade comes out. Speed isn't an issue so I'll look into the Advanced Barrels/Scopes/Stocks and I'm keeping my eyes peeled for nice tissues.


Thanks for the input.

Mal.... you shouldn't need to look for them, unless your looking for really really uber loot barrels. Scopes I can mae +42 ideal with 19 HAM cost or +21 with 0 HAM (not sure on this one). Depends on whether you want a advanced (higher accuracy but ham) or standard (lower accuracy but no ham). As to FFS, WS can make 40/40 so 15/10 more dmage than FFS. Barrels for rifles are 11/11 I think, so if you find anything better theyre nice to have. Not sure where you get them tho...

If you need someone to craft look me up
