Funny your asking.... yes it does, I just ran an experiment today, I have a laser rifle and a T21, both are close in stats the Laser does 4 more points max than the T21.... however it has a lower min damage value.


Now, my accuracy is well over 300 so I VERY rarely miss or get less than max damage, but I discovered today that the damage pup (heavy barrel) seems to reference the min damage some how? my lower damage T21 when puped has a higher max damage than the Laser.... it seemed strange to me that without the pup the laser was the higher damage of the two....


Removed the pups, boom the laser is better again...


Odd but true...

Now that we always do the same damage, using the same move on the same mob, does max-min matter or is it not only max damage or DPS that counts.

I think that's true. Don't PUPs alter the dmg according to the min dmg stat?
