With SOEmaking all weapons basicly having the same damage range based on there lvl. With thisproblem I forsee one major problem developingwith Krayt weapons. Will be this a weaponsmith buys a set of 6tissues of 110 max damage tissues for say6 mil.If heputs them into a T 21 and get a T21 with 360 DPS and we might get for8 mil it,but them into 6 separate DL 44 xt and end up with 6 guns at 360 DPS and sell each for4 mil. Because of this reason I don't see any reason forthe weaponsmithto make guns with multiple power handlers, when we can makeone with a single power handler with basicly the same DPS. So with this in mind how many of you all still for see krayt weapons being stocked for rifleman and carbineers.

I still do cause Im in it to serve my costumerbase (of course not at loss) with a wide vaerity of weapons, not for the credits. But perhaps youve got a point then again most carbineers are gonna use the proton carbine anyway and riflemen are bugged to hell last I heard so it might not be that much of an issue atm


On a more serious note IMO it has allways been more profitable making 11 krayted scatters opposed to 1 krayted T21 so I dont think the removal of AP is going to have a moajor effect. If the need for krayted Rifles, but only a few offers them, then the prices will regulate after that. Just my 2 cents

I don't do this to make the most money possible. Rather, I make what my customers want/need and use the profit to make better weapons. With this in mind, I don't tend to stock the vendor with lots of enhanced weapons since most of what I do is custom work.

People that want rifles or carbs Krayted will bring a WS tissues to custom build. Probably cheaper than buyinga pre-made oneoff a vendor anyway.

I never really did much enhanced sales, I like to do more custom work. I can say that someone brought in a set of 11 109dmg tissues, and guess what I was asked to make? All DL44 XT. He had a nice set of 140dmg set of 3, made 2 HC Scatter and another DL44 XT.

What I can't imagine is why anyone would pay 6 million for 6 +106 tissues. Maybe before the CU but now enhancements have much less affect on the final outcome of the weapon. I could see 600k but not 6 million.

lol... 600k for 6 100+ damage tissues. it's a deflated economy, yes, but "the best" is still 'the best" and people are still willing to dish out credits for it. i have sold nything i create between 340-350dps for 2-3mil each. this suggests like the thread author is saying, but if it easy to find a 350dps carbine and hard to find a 350dps T21, the people WILL pay more for a 350dps T21. it's called "supply and demand."
