My Opalo reads "Tier 1 ----- 120", my firend's reads "Tier 1 ---- 85" there is no discernible logic or reasonable explanation why theirs would read differently than mine even though they are the same gun purchased from the same TT in Nea's.
they are not the same gun anymore. all weapons are different, even when their "names" are the same. your opalo goes from tier 0 to tier 1 faster than your friends.
So, why set up a system that makes no sense. I have a friend who spend over 170PEDs on repairs on a Katsuichi Determination and has yet to reach Tier .01, I on the other hand only spent around 70PEDs in repairs (on same sword)and have already reached 01.
because your kat most probably has a higher value for tier 1 increase rate.
Our skill levels are almost exactly the same so it should not be such a large difference in advancement in tiers on the same weapon. This goes with out saying for the Korss 400(l)'s we both own. He has put more ammo through it, had more decay as a result and he has not even reached tier .6 and as for me, I have already reached .08 with less than half of the ammo usage.
skill do not play a role in tier advancement, as far as we know.
wrt your korss, you both own different korss. yours, most probably, has a higher tier 1 increase rate.
The suggestion to MA is that "Tier" leveling up an item (no matter what it is) should be consistent throughout the game.. If it would take (for exsample - so many number of Criticals to reach a tier or let us all say skill lines in that area - rifle skills, longblade, handgun and for armor so many hit damage it takes) but it should be the same throughout the game. The numbers do not make sense Why would my opalo read different than the person next to me. Opalo's are all the same. They use the same amount of ammo and they Max out at the same - so why should the Tier numbers be different for everyone who owns one?
they have designed the system like that, and they have made each item unique to give more diversity. why is that bad? they system is different than before, not necessarily worse.
AGAIN MA has no explanation for this.
(...)
MA is going to have to do something about it if enough of us want explanations.
they released the system with not enough info, agreed. but there has been many threads both from MA giving additional info, and from players doing some research, and the system is better known now.
