Does weapon degrade affect the effectivness of a weapon?

Is it wise to use a weapon til it's near distruction, or should I have it replaced/repaired long before that, If so, at what point of the degrade should action be taken?

Thx

After you get the message

"The condition of your weapon is now 25%", the min/max damage of the weapon starts to drop. Try and get your weapons repaired at aroudn 600/xxx most repairs mess up with the max condition of the weapon anyways. Try no to fire too much after the 25% message, specially if you are a Riffleman. I've had the displeasure of noticing I was hitting a Krayt Dragon with a 100-273 T21 after it was dead

i always advise to get the weapon repaired when under 50% condition

I used to say run it till 100/950 or whatever, but since they BROKE repair I'd say do it somewhere between 50-25%.

A guildie came to me with his 2 krayt laser carbs the other day both around 150 cond and when I got a fairly good repair on both and returned them to him the guns had lost more than 60% of their dmg stats (they were perfect before repair). I had taken the power ups off them , and one of the guns was it's first repair.

We bugged it and got the usual BS response.
