I see that the cap for a power hammers weapon is 1184. However I have been trying to craft a high dmg power hammer and the highest I can get up to is around 1090 or so. THis is using geo cube of 17min 29 max and solidifying agent of 20 on the core. I am going for max dmg experimentation on both the geonosian core and the actual hammer. Can anyone tell me what I can do better in this matter. Oh i have +15 experimentation and i eat +25 experimentation food and +15 assembly when crafting both parts.

To hit the cap you only need to get to 1096 damage and then do a damage slice. To get there without a slice is virtually impossible. Additionally, experimenting strictly the damage is something you really dont want to do. Melee weapons are notorious for high SAC which needs to be lowered in the subs and main combines. Having a PH with a SAC of 130 makes for a pretty worthless PH even if it was damage capped.
Additionally, acklay bones dont have any SAC or speed mod on them and are registered as 0. Therefore a PH made with these are slower and have a higher SAC.

IS the slice cap different on PHs compared to other weapons where the slice cap isnt as high as the craft cap?
