Gratz on the discovery and loot.

As for the pistol itself, though, pretty "meh" stats for those requirements, just like all these other very high SIB items lately.
 
Im just wondering for who are they made...with this pace,i would need 5 years to reach those requirements:dunce:


GRATZ!!!!

Agreed, and agreed. Looks like it does less damage than HL18, which is maxed much sooner.
 
Gratz :yay:

Quite high lvl requirement though :eyecrazy:

It was clear early on that MA screwed up when they released the first wave of (L) SIBs. They had very powerful weapons maked at a low level, which doesn't really encourage skilling or avatar development and was definitely disproportionate to the old weapons. The more recent drops fit in better with a skill system that "goes" to level 100, as has been the case from the beginning. Eventually we'll go beyond that, but they have to get to 100 first.

Anyway, it may be that the eco is better on this one, at least nominally. That could be a way of motivating ava development given the existence of the powerful low level SIBs.

Hmm.. its interesting that its damage/sec lags HL18, that has a much lower level to use.

The minimal decay for "Above average" is 2.5 pec, giving the minimum cost of 22.5 pec / shot, that for 96 max damage gives 4.266(6) eco, while eco for HL18(L) is 4.1 and for Geotrek Uti is 4.128. So not a lot of ground for increased eco. Ok, low decay would stretch it a bit after markup.

Agreed on SIB ladder ending too soon - but the Laserfaust is a much better example of such a SIB extending gun than the M6600.
 
SO instead of rewarding those players who have skilled up to such an incredible high level MA rewards that effort by dropping new weapons with less damage high tt value and lame economy L weapons? Seems to me they missed a great opportunity to say to the community :Hey thanks for supporting the game! Heres a nice reward for your efforts because you skilled yrself up to such a high level-> "low tt plus power and economy" "AWWESome" thanks MA.But NO The new L Mod Merc will no doubt sell for 102% and it looks like the other new drops will be the same.MA ->:scratch2:

The real question is - will guns like the high-end Isis guns start to drop less often?

That's a possibility, although MA would be really stupid to stunt the PED cycled by players, like that.

Then again, MA isn't known for being the sharpest knife in the drawer, and has a penchant for shooting themselves in the foot.

True, but why would anyone use these new weapons when we can just as easily use the older weapons that are maxed sooner? They would need to have low markup or something to give some kind of advantage.
