 Re: James Wattage Penultimate LevelThis is pretty offtopic, I can just move the whole topic to general if you wish to continue discussion, or split out the posts leaving the actual issue (the closeness of the gates), which is something I'd like to see changed for future.

Re: James Wattage Penultimate Level anilv wrote: 1. James Watt was when I killed him a few times this uni. 2. Your DPS estimate with Excomm is 2-3x too high, depending on how you're set up. Makes it a bit too easy to see you're bullshitting. 3. Why don't you carry a modded Fly Pellet to adjust your kiting speed? paxiprime wrote: Yeah sorry dow, no way your dishing out 33.2k dps with an excomm, imo calculators are bull shit. I know sniper gets a physical damage boost, but my sniper can dps him in a few seconds with a hgg, but yeah mining usually kills em fast too. Ahh so my setup DOES dish out 32k dps if the calculator is right. Kthanks proved wrong bye iWin. |

Re: James Wattage Penultimate Level anilv wrote: Slightly amusing. Your example actually works out to 32k DPS but no matter. I guess I owe you an apology since it seems your mediocre Speed Demon and an Elec Dread can compete with some of the best HM and Prawn snipers in Olympus. I would speculate as to what went wrong in your experiment (Dread had travel field on, accidentally wore a Slipstream, your velocity approached the speed of light and put your timing off...) but it doesn't really matter since your results are so wildly beyond the realm of the possible. 36k DPS with atiis calc resist ( never tested my calc about resist so i wasnt sure but its still more then 32k) tested on my own gunner dread ( Gmast CaL (AT 25) auged GGnT) took 7 sec to kill with new setup there is no border of the realm of the possible. _________________ Valkyrie300 wrote: You need to thoroughly think before sprouting exaggerated statements |

Re: James Wattage Penultimate Level Well, whatever is written in here, you won't be doing 36k DPS as a speed demon with a single excommunicator unless you are multifiring.
I suggest trying out some other weapons tho. If you have the range, then a Mad Thorax or a Primal Lion Quick Snap can do some great damage. |

Re: James Wattage Penultimate Level It's what the calculator throws at me and I can't get Frac's to work. I'm basically auged for pure DPS hence I go about 300 speed.
LQS I've tried that on hawks once, when you crit it turns them and then since its a torp they stop tracking sometimes. Mad Thorax seems like a good idea though! |

Re: James Wattage Penultimate Level MTs and fast moving objects dont work, have tried that on hawks before (kite at any distance (50-1k) and let it run into it) it just miss 90% of the shots like they go over it
36k DPS isnt hard if auged right (and im not talking about pure DPS), the problem might start with resist on Jwatt, you might end up doing around 10-15k DPS then if everything hits. _________________ Valkyrie300 wrote: You need to thoroughly think before sprouting exaggerated statements |

Re: James Wattage Penultimate Level Frac's calculator haven't been wrong in any way for me yet, so I will go by what it tells me. You can look at some 50k DPS with 3 Excommunicators with a very specialized setup, and I can get to 25k DPS with 1 Excommunicator with another pretty specialized setup. You look at powering the weapons for no longer than 3-4 seconds tho.
