A guild mate of mine looted 4 identical legendary kryatt tissues @ 300 max and 2.8 speed. He's a commando. What weapon(s) would you all make with these? I lean towards singe powerhandle weapons because it seems a shame to waste one on a schematic, but I'm curious what other smiths out there would do. I'll try to get a screenshot of the tissues posted tonight or tomorrow if anyone wants/needs to see them.

jesus.


any pistol with those will have 0.0 speed and ungodly damage (and we'll find out what happens if a tissue takes a weapon into negative speed), or you could make the best laser rifle/carbine ever.


i'd go with single-PH pistols, they'd benefit from it the most (triple normal damage) and you wouldn't have to risk losing all of them on a crit fail.

hehe, it's a shame he didn't find those before the patch. He could make himself a helluva launcher pistol.


I'd do scatters personally...seems a waste to use all that damage on a weapon with no armor piercing.

I thought any speed below 1.0 still defaulted back to a 1.0? Or was that just player skill mods? At anyrate, it would more than zero out the speed on a scout, so I'm a bit partial to the scatter at this point. And I'm thinking the scatter would appeal more to the market that could afford a weapon of that nature. Hehe, think this one could start my retirement fund. The two parts I'm worried about are crit fail, and getting a speed slice.

I'm almost certain that weapons cannot go into negative speed no matter what, so keep that in mind when choosing what you want made. I've seen a WS on my server who has made more than one 0.0 speed, and i doubt that's a coincidence.


and........wow

I've seen guns made with lesser krayt that were experimented down to 0.0, but I haven't heard of any cases where the speed bonus on the power handler was enough to reduce it past 0.0 before experimentation.


It'llprobably stay at 0.0 the whole time, but there's enough oddities with experimentation (proj feed mech speed going to -2 after a failed experiment, the negative HAM weapons in beta that healed you) that I can't be sure what's going to happen.

Every day the spelling of Krayt gets worse and worse... Krayt... Kryat..Krayte...Kryatt...

It's KRAYT!

BTW, nice tissue.

Not sure about the lower than 1.0 speed thing. I have seen guns lower than 1.0 but these were produced by an exploit. So could be possible.

You are definitly not going to the speed below 0.0, or you will be having all sorts of problems with the time/space continuum and start doing things like shooting your next shot before your first.

It's good to fianlly see what the stats on a legendary tissue are though. We all knew these were possible but had never seen them. So Krayts cap out at 300+, now I know what to tell my customers. Thanks!

Ah almost forgot, what to do with them...

Sell them. Don't try to build them into guns or power-handlers. Sell them as a dutch auction on your server boards in tissue state.

If you put them in a gun then you will be reducing the numbers of customers because not everyone will want that gun model. You will also be taking the risk of critical fails or having them stolen.

There is a group of players on every server who HAVE to have the very best no matter how much it costs. These tissues are the very best and are ultra rare. They will pay huge amounts for these.

The very best guns in the game can be made from these, but they are only good for show and tell. To use them would be a horrible waste. There are other weapon models that can deal just as much damage so why waste such a rare thing.

Most definitly sell them as is, unless of course you are a "Best of the Best" collector yourself

You'll never have to worry about money again.

I agree...sell them...some rich people could choose what they want...most likely scatters, but I could see a monstrously dangerous PVP DH17 snub nose with one of those also. Please keep us updated, Id like to see what happens with these and be sure you cut your guildmate in on the take!
