If I remember my stats correctly, my DX2s come out at 102-159 dmg and 2.5 speed. That's with a 19-38/-0.38 advanced handler and a 15-15/-0.72 advanced barrel.

Normal power handlers come out at around 7-15/-0.15, and normal barrels come out at around 9-9/-0.89.

So, if a DX2 using all advanced components is 102-159/2.5, a DX2 using normal components would be somewhere around 83-130/2.9.

Mine too.

On Eclipse, a DX2 with no advanced components is around 93-138, 2.2.

a DX2 with advanced power handler and blaster pistol barrel is 106-165, 2.4.

Can someone please post the stats on an advanced DX2 vs a standard DX2 pistol? Along with the cost?

I just switched from BH to pistoleer, due to the ch crap coming soon. I really want to get a good DX2, but I have no idea whats good and what isnt. I also am not rich now, as changing professions can be costly. I'm trying carbineer as well, which I am about to drop. Of course, only after I spent a lot on 4 good carbines lol hehehe.

Thanks

Thats ok you get 10 pts for trying. It seems to be about 50% better for that component, but I dont have any idea how that translates to a finished weapon. But thanks.

even though your non-advanced barrels are .2 faster the tradeoff is definitely not worth it. Due to the craptastic nature of the resources in the advanced blaster pistol barrel we end up with some 5 left over points. I always spend those on range modifiers.. the damage difference between adv vs non advanced barrels may only be 6 points but the ideal range bonus is 10 points. Consididering how crapptastically inacurate (-18 without a 0ham scope -7 with scope at 0m - 8m) the DX2 is using an advanced barrel, the innacuracy of an unscoped, normal barreled DX2 would probably be around -27 at 1-8m. You might as well pick up a gattarifi baton and take up brawler if your going to stand at 0m.
