I just crafted one of these with the new schematic. I won't list all of the stats, but all I really needed to see was 69-146 2.7s. It does have a nice bleed mod, but from what I can see, that part is always the same. The only good thing I can see about it is that you get the cert at marksman carbine 2, meaning a lot of people can use it. Otherwise, I don't see much use for it. Maybe I am being cynical, but I am pretty disappointed. After paying 350k for this, I am glad I can make a manufacturing schem. On a bright note, my first attempt was a crit fail on assembly. But it didn't count against me. It only gave me a message saying one of the uses was gone after I made the schem. Don't know if this means you have to make a prototype or schematic before it counts, but at least I still have 2 uses left.

It's basically the same thing as a regular E11 carbine (cert's in the same place) except it has a bleed. Same with the enhanced republic blaster. The featherweight FWG5 ends up with worse stats than a regular one because of the crap metals required but at least that has some useful skillmods instead of just a bleed.

Yeah, I got a little better using some older materials, 2.3 97-180, but that isn't where they shine. It is that built in Power Up of bleed / health, 150 for 60s, potency 75% and 9000 uses. Now then, PuP this thing and slice it and it gets creative.
The Lite FWG's sorta the same. Pistol enhancements built in but the base was coming out 2.4 60-163 before slicing. With the right stuff you can beat this on a standard FWG.
Last note: Had a run with one withtwo bad experimentals -yet- it came out same as 2 before it with the Greats !? Not sure if was plain dumb luck or if these cannot be broken. <shrug>

I got a couple of ones including the rifle stock reward sliced, 1 is max 222 the other 217 now add a krayt tissue and it's a decent carbine what with the Bleed and all.
