Perhaps he was counting power ups as well.

But to see the maximum damage your weapons should have with a perfect damage slice, simply multiply by 1.35

171x1.35=230

191x1.35=257

Lastly +33% damage slices are extremely uncommon.

Hrmnn shoulda read the Screenshot first...

That's not right, either he's lieing for show, or doing something every other smuggler out there cannot normally do.

lol "My WUKs today are very good". Well thats a load of BS for a start as there have been a lot of tests by folks on the smuggler boards claiming that WUKs made with super low stats materials vs WUKs made with super high stats made absolutely no difference, and even at that if they did the cap is still 35%.

This guy is either lying to you cos he knows you couldn't trade to see them or else he is using the double-slice thing somehow.

His statement is not proof: you would need a screenie of the guns he has now to be positive...

FWG5 min damage is around 62. 35% damage slice would put it at 84-258, then an 18% slice on top of that would give it exactly 99-304. There also many other combinations of slices that would produce the same end results, but what matters here is that thisratio of min/max is impossible to get with powerups so this guy is either exploiting or making things up.

Put in a ticket, let the CSRs confiscate his guns.

Yea...definately shady, math does not add up. There are still smuggler exploits out there. File a ticket...be sure to select exploit from the drop down menu...gets a fast response.

He's just lying probably. People love to lie about having uber weapons

if you didnt see the weapon in trade window chances are pretty good he's lying.

I've been lied to many times abotu weaponslices and a week later when I repair it and see the real stats, I confirm the lie. I do not confront them because if they want to lie fine, it only makes them look like an a$$

The range for armor slices is different from the range for weapon slices.

Weapon slices are limited to 35% and usually cluster around 24% for master smugglers. Armor slices can get up to 45% and 40% isn't too uncommon.

Best of luck,

Actually, I'd lay money on the guy double-slicing.

There's a double-slicing exploit out there that doesn't require multiple smugglers, I've had people brag to me about it and show me the guns, I've screenshot'ed, reported and banned them from my store but several are still out there somewhere.
