Thread: A thought on Pups

While playing with my converted melee Pups, I thought: "This is useless, the Pup actually lowers the DPS by a point or 2. It's making it slower instead of speeding it up!" Then I realized that by keeping essentially the same DPS on a slower weapon, it was essentially lowering the SAC. I figure it would be slapped on in the middle of a battle when one wanted to start conserving Action.


Uh-oh, I just gave the Devs a reason to stamp it "Working as intended."

This what was my tests concluded too, it slows the gun down but only lowers by 2dps... meaning that you fire for basically the same damage as before (or rather the same rate (dps)) but slower thus loosing less action, very useful IMO

I wonder if that test on using crap resources to craft a slow hard hitting weapon after slice compared to a faster slightly weaker better resource weapon after slice worked. Was some great logic in that post.
