Thread: Ok someone pushed my buttons.. aparently 900dmg Unsliced T21's are possible
Spinnthrift wrote:What about player crafted weapons - using Krayt Tissues and looted barrels and stocks - you can take a T-21 to around 1600 max damage. Would you deny the player who spent the time looting those tissues/barrels and stocks his weapon because he can outdamage you? It's crafted and would surely beat many looted weapons... wouldn't it?Edited for smelling pistakes.Message Edited by Spinnthrift on 03-19-2005 04:33 PM

Base T21 maxes 410-415 unsliced on most servers, with a stock. Assuming you mean 1600max with powerup 1200max sliced, you are talking about an approx ~900 dmg T21 UNSLICED. I am not sure about you, but I have never heard of a 500 dmg set of 11 krayt tissue drop anywhere, or even some legendary rifle barrels that would offset that.
He replied...
Exceptional Barrels, Stocks and Tissues, with a half decent damage slice would push over 1500 max. Exceptional Stocks are +100min/max as are barrels, exceptional tissues are +300 max. My standard fare in T-21 was 411 unsliced, but me and a couple of WS mates went to the theoretical ends to see what could be pushed out. And it was including a pup.
I'd be curious to see what legendary's would do to this.
It's all about the time you put in hunting to what you get out.
~Edit~ Actually... the real crunch was trying to see if it was possible to hit the speed cap with a flame thrower. It's quite easy to make a 2.0 speed flamer before slice, but hitting the 1.16 speed needed to cap... that's another story.
~EndEdit~
~Edit #2~ I wish I were smoking something, but I'm afraid with my future career choice - that road is somewhat off limits. My figures are correct though - if you use the right looted components as was stated in my original post. Not meaning to sound overly knowitall, but I know my components, mechanics and systems. Also AFAIK Legendary Acklay Bones will go to 650/650 mix/max from my knowledge, but reduce speed and accuracy, legendary Spider Venom goes to 900 power, the list goes on... all components craftable into some silly weapons/poisons etc... ~EndEdit~

I haven't seen any stocks over 100 dmg or any barrels over 100dmg posted anywhere to get even close to what you are talking. What theoretical breakdown are you talkin for these specific parts? Has _anyone_ ever posted screenshots of these? I'd wager that an exceptional weapon would drop long before you could loot the components to top it.

Still haven't said what dmg barrels or stock you planned on looting
For example you would need a 300dmg set of ELEVEN krayt tissue, +111 dmg barrel and +140dmg stock to equal a 900dmg T21 Unsliced, then pray for 35% dmg slice to even hope of getting near 1200 to pup to 1600, you see why I said you were smokin? I haven't seen any screenshots or proof of any component loots anywhere close to those values. It just would never ever happen, not even if you sacraficed Leia to the slicing & loot gods.
---------------------------------
I dunno why I just can't let this go.. Does _anyone_ here have screenshots of this uber loot? How is it I've never seen anything close?

It'd be worth some incredible braggings rights for the smith that has his/her name listed as creator.

Even if someone was able to pull together all those loot comps, and it took a perfect slice, what would it be worth?

I still doubt that these components have _ever_ spawned. I've seen tons of uber loot screenshots but none of em add up to 900dmg unsliced t21's.
i agree, ive seem some crazy stuff, but never stocks, ive seen barrels around 35 max but with an insane range mod , but ive never seen a set of 11 capped krayt tissues
In my professional opinion, I agree. Not that our opinions mean any more than this fellow's, but there you have it.

Even legendary I don't think it is possible to hit 900... gotta stick to my guns here
