I just bought a FWG 5

Base DPS 305

SAC 84

Pistol Accuracy +5

cost:101 k

i guess it s a good bargain, even if i forgot damage (max around 800).

I konow dps is no the data to look after, but can anyone confirm it s cheap?

I think you mean Featherweight

Its ok, the max damage is a little low - sounds like the WS went mainly for speed to bring the DPS up.

As for prices, it all depends on your servers economy so hard to say - I would have thought it was a little pricey personally.

1 point for you

What about pistol bonus? Does it mean Wsmith put AA in it? Or is part of a normal experimentation?

The accuracy bonus?

Yeah its part of normal experimentation on both the subcomponents and the final weapon. The easiest way to get a lot of accuracy is to get the WS to put a scope on it, it will give a slight speed cost but a big boost to accuracy.

this weapon will have 2 acc bonuses - one "accuracy" from the scope - usually 10 or so..

also this particular weapon is made from a loot schematic SO has a +15 pistol acc mod built into the weapon

a "normal" FWG5 wont have this additional +15 pistol ACC mod

A'ru

If the +5 accuracy is right then this is a pre-CU conversion. New Featherweights have +15.

And personally 101K for that pistol is outrageous.

server economics vary greatly, but that pistol is much better than the Featehrweights that I stock. My standard Featherwieght comes in around 309 DPS with 96 SAC and +15 pistol accuracy and I charge 15k for them on Radiant.

True, servers do vary. But for a weapon schem that is fairly easy to get and a weapon that doesn't take many resources to make...sheesh.

My Featherweights for a 305 dps would be about 18K. Of course I don't have to buy the schems or loot either, most is donated to me by my guild which helps cut costs dramatically.

FWG5 featherweights cap at 966 max dam....have made a few of those,with SAC as low as 80. but u need very good bones to make em with that low SAC, +170 ones. Nemis

On Chilastra the Featherwight FWG5's I make are about 300DPS while the normal FWG5's about 305DPS. Both base and pre slice.

I charge about 12K for the normal FWG5 and about 24K for the Featherweight.

Best pistol in the game in my opinion.

I have gotten them easily in the 330-340 DPS range with base gorax shards.

But they are very easy to make. Few components and resources, nothing really extravagent. They shouldnt cost all that much.

thanks for your help.

i believe i have been stolen....
