Whats everyone finding on the rules of the new rollout for this change.


From what I'm hearing its existing guns can be categorized "pre-nerf" and still weildable by any class? New republics made are not.


Anyone test if schematics made before patch can be considered pre-nerf? What about modified republics?


I'll hope to get on to test some of this myself and will respond. If this is true then pre-nerf republics value just shot thru the roof...



Thanks

I didn't test this, but someone posted that RBs crafted before the patch are still usable by everyone.


Ones crafted after the patch require novice pistoleer.


I have a schematic created before the patch, and the weapons produced from that require novice pistoleer.



POKEY THE PENGUIN SIG REMOVED BY GARVA BECAUSE "Just because you are crafty enough to get around the technicality of it being a .jpg or .gif does not mean it is not an image, it is not ascii art, it is an image" SO HERE IS MY NEW SIG.

Still no time yet to test further.


Anyone else try unpacking a pre-existing crate made before patch to see if gun unpacked is non-cert?


What about modified republics too?


Hold on to those pre-nerf republics guys... their value will soon sky rocket it seems.

Tried em out I could use them before patch. Any that were out of a crate before the patch I can use, any that I remove from a crate since the patch I cannot use.

Howdy;


Only weapon I COULD use was the Republic. Since publish 7 I am down to Sliced CDEF with Attack, Burst Run and Peace as macros, heh. Took me 5 minutes to kill a stupid spice fiend in Bestine BTW, heh.


I have tried with the new and the one I was using before publish. No Joy, sorry folks.


Haven't kilt much since Xmas anyway - so not a large loss. Now we need to petition to keep those pesky Spice Fiends OUT of the starport <grin>.

you must have been using a Modified Republic.


From my testing it seems guns that existed out of the crates before the patch = non-cert pre-nerf republics usable by anyone. All the rest are pistoleer only.


Modified republics are all pistoleer only even ones that were outside the crate before the patch.


This is what I gathered with my testing. Anyone else see anything different?
