My fault for messing up.

What I want to know is how do you increase the DPS while crafting, I have made Scatters capped out on damage yet cant reach some of the level of DPS i have seen on other guns.

This goes for everything, Elite Carbines, Laser Rifles, whats the deal, how do these guys get a base 350+ DPS and cap the damage?

Can someone help me.

First of all I would liek to point out that DPS is a very inaccurate measurement for the quality of the weapon.

If you are set on increasing the DPS noetherless you should go for full speed on your components the rest in damage and then full damage on the final combine and the rest in speed (this is ourely true if you only care about DPS).

The ones hitting 350+ is using krayt tissues, gorax shards, power cells or reinforced casings

also if the DPS is really high check if they havent gotten a speedslice. Hope this helps

For short fights DPS can be difficult to understand, it's an average of the damage taken over a period of time. I find it useful for long fights where sac is high and you have to watch your action bar. If DPS is high it means you should be able to get away with slightly higher sac than is ideal as few specials would need to be used. I find speed is the best stat that affects DPS.

DPS is meaningless. It does not factor in the accuracy bonus of the weapon or the special action cost. If you miss a target due to +1 Accuracy (or into the negative using powerups) or your weapon has such high SAC that it drains your action pool to the point where you can only use default attacks, the DPS calculation listed on the weapon does NOT factor in these vital facts.

DPS should be removed as a stat from weapons, period.

Thanks guys for the replies, I think I will stay with making minus SAC components and concintrate of damage and speed during the experimentation process.

To gain more dps on parts experiment spd b4 damage, damage gives +1 per exp point used, spd is better.I tested various ways, and1 exp point on final weapon in spd gives -.3, roughly 5dps.

Best way to craft, max sac on all parts, then spd. final weapon max damage, then for best weapons i do sac. i sell +400dps fwg5's, maxing sac and damage, using leftover points in spd and getting spd slices to make dps higher as thats what ppl want.

Theres new parts dropping, using them sac capping is easy as long as u max sac exp on parts (or use pre cu stocks aswell for rifles), use a looted scope (only scopes that reduce spd further) and powercells or reinforced casings (depending on weapon) and u looking at best weapon anyone can make.

I still get tells asking for dps weapons, i think only WS have clicked that dps sucks, do u actually shoot for more using a 1.68spd pistol compared to a 1.77? NOPE, yet dps is 15ish better!! If i could still sell the weapons id rather stick in acc tree, but they dont want that as dps is poo.

Gl crafting, but u at a loss compared to pre cu ws, there parts are alot better than u could possibly make now, i wish i could make -20sac stocks, yet to craft a rifle sac caped without one, wish didnt have to worry about dps.
