153 points of damage in a single shot...

[UserUnfriendly]

doesn't happen all the time, or every shot, but when it does, its pure magic...



two mandalor disintegrators, pinpoint scope mark IV, pure rylath power cell and mandalorian chamber mark III.

give to a character with blaster specialization (implant is the easy way, requires con 18 for the d type implant) high dex, master power blast, and precise shot V feat.

the 2 damage from blaster specialization, the 12 from power blast, 8 from precise shot, and some of the damage from the upgrades will triple in a critical hit. (constants double and triple in a critical hit, whether by using sniper shot or power blast...like a straight +4 damage doubles/triples, but not 2-12 damage bonus)

this rig will typically do 30-50 damage, but every 4 shots or so, (threat range for a mandalorian disintegrator(with pinpoint scopes) is one in four... you will see 100-153 damage...

now using power attack and improved beam gem lens will max out around 110 for a critical hit, (unless you're a watchman/assassin with sneak attack) but since speed powers work with power attack, though it does not work with power blast, you more than make up the hurt...

manalorian rippers and disintegrators have the best threat range for ranged weapons in the game...

the assassin rifle in the guide book has excellent threat range, but i've never seen it...has anyone ever seen it?

no comments?

Thats cool man. And the rifle your talking about, I think you have to be a Sith assasin to get it.

It would be so pro to be able to play this online and test your characters against others. But yeah. Anyway, I would love to see a fght between my exile with his two sabers all hyped up and your dude.

thanks for the "how to" part of it aswell.

UU,

Did you really spend all those feat slots on precise shot. It just doesn't seem to be worth it.

[QUOTE=Ned Flanders]UU,

yes it is...

you see, the +8 damage will TRIPLE on a power blast/crit strike...power blast triples the crit hit damage multiplier..and of course the +12 from power blast triples too...and lastly the blaster specialization +2 damage triples...and lets not forget the base unstoppable damage of the disintegrator itself..and that's why you use mandalorian disintegrators because the threat range is obscenely high, and damage is good...actually i think micropulse blasters are actually more powerful... but has a worse threat range...

my exile uses two sabres too...

with TWO power crystals AND the charname crystal in each sabre, consular watchman sneak attack bonus using master force focus and disabling force powers, master speed i adverage 50-80 damage per hit, and using master power attack, sometimes i hit for over 160 damage...same principle, except you use improved beam gem lenses...

except i still don't know if the cheat of using 3 power crystals in a sabre is stable gamewise...but it should be ok, since i've flushed the cache and started a new game for my trials with the consular watchman...

yes, I am seriously evil...

but you all knew that...

ranged attacks are seriously lethal in this game...really evil...

A Duel!

If you guys are talking about some kind of Dark side character I may kill you both with my Light Side Killer I know that it doesn't sound like Lightsider but my character is really poweful - choke , lightening any Force power won't make any bad for him. And he is also Fast , Powerful and Very Hard tu Kill. Thats a pity that Kotor hasn't Multiplayer. Maybe some kind of mod.... We'll wait we'll see. If your characters are Lightsiders that you gain my respect and I admire you!

[CodyCarson]

My lightsider could kill my Darksider in seconds. I kick some major ass with my lightsider, just because of all the stuff you can do. My darksider is like level 25 and my lightsider is like 20 and I know I could kill him with my lightsider.

So, IF I had to cause I would pick my lightsider. Force Storm, Kill and my 100+ attacks with my two sabers. Peice of cake

no...no...i am lightsider, its just ME that's evil..

this is degenerating into who pwns who...sigh...

Lightside rulez!!!

Then I can do nothing but shake hands with you. Every Light Jedi in this corrupted world is a precious and uniqe. 20 lvl you say it's just a taste of the Lightside. I've written that because I can't play Darksider anymored , I've played it once and then I understand that I can't just go around entire Galaxy and kill innocente people it is unfair and sick. I've tried to by bad but... I just couldn't. Anyway I don't know what is worse feel hatred and anger to your enemy but in the right cause or just by bad as siths are?

Spoilers

After marveling about the huge damage you guys were getting I got a really good one of my own last night. I had just met the giant Storm Beast on Malachor V and I hit him with Force Wave first which actually managed to stun him, then I ran up and hit him with Master Power attack and my damage was 101 on one sabre and 138 on the other. Poor Stormy didn't stand a chance.

[MasterQelDroma]

Yeah but that was with a lightsaber. In Shien form with my keen lightsabers and master power attack I can get 200+ damage in a single shot one out of ever 4-5 attacks, meaning with master speed and two sabers, every opponent i face is getting at least a 200+ critical hit with the 3 other attacks. That's why i was more impressed with the 153 damage from UserUnfriendly's blasters, because blasters can't compare with lightsabers when it comes to damage. While blasters have been improved in power from the last game, and are now (when fully upgraded and equiped in a master blaster wielder) more powerful that most melee weapons, they still aren't as good as the lightsaber, which is what the game designers were going for, and why you get it so late.

Question for UserUnfriendly: Is there any guarenteed way to obtain more Mandalorian Disintegrators (my favorite blaster) earlier? The last two games I've played I only ever got one, and it was on the Ravenger so it didn't even matter anymore for my Weapons Master. I want to play as a Watchman who is proficient in both blasters and lightsabers next game and more disintegrators would be very nice for this character.

[Cheester89]

Killer

My killer is even better I've killed every powerful an mighty ..........gizka in galaxy. With my single violetbladed lightsaber an Master Crictal Strike 'cause I prefer stunning that hurting and even some sort of beast may surive first attack then it can stand another. I would maybe have such force as Wave but I prefer to ancend forces like Speed or Valor or Defence. By the way my best shot was 66 but it was cricital.

just exploit the heck out of the random loot system...

i saved before entering korriban academy, and this is my 12th time reloading after looting the containers...also, the higher your level, the better the loot, after the mass of medpacks and rockets...i am level 48 now..still no disintegraters...

200+? watchman, with charname crystal and a str build, right?

ok, there is a way to get around 250, but its major cheating..

you need 2 keen sabres, with all upgrades, naturally....

you need to be a str build watchman/assassin, with master power attack, and around 30-40 str...

use master speed, and many master power attacks, d'uh...disable them for the sneak attack bonus...

finally put THREE power crystals, preferably 2 charname crystals, and a barab ore that does 2-22 fire damage most powerful damage crystal in the game in your main hand sabre, and a third charname crystal in the off hand lightsaber...

when you cheat and put two power crystals in one sabre, you don't get double stats for that one sabre, but you get twice the damage...

but using sabre duplication cheats, having one charname crystal in each sabre does stack the attribute bonuses...

lastly use master battle meditation and all the echani stims you can make...

now its theoretically possible to get 200 points of damage with ranged attacks if you're close in for sneak attack bonus, but the whole point is to kill them off at range...

oh yeah, one more bit of naughtyness..in dantooine, using master power blast and a single disintegrator, sometimes the kinraths got knocked back, due to a critical hit with a master powerblast can sometimes knock a enemy back...very very very useful in ranged combat....

here's another one kiddies...

upgrade a standard disrupter with keen scopes, and the threat range drops to 15-20...

with a sniper shot specialist, that means every single shot will be critical...

or try with hk with master sniper shot, and assassination protocol 3...

i figured out how to make using lightsabres even better...

using the shien form adds +1 to the critical hit MULTIPIER...which means a critical hit will do quadruple damage...

using ataru makes every hit with master critical attack do double damage...

forget niman, its not nearly as good as the cheese factor for shien and ataru...

was using twin sith disintegrators in dxun last night, and sith disrupters, and mandalorian rippers will do around 150 damage too...and sometimes, the power blast knocks them back...

makes hunting lots of fun...

What's the best combination for a blaster jedi? (prestige class/jedi class)

For Light side and dark side.

[UserUnfriendly]

[QUOTE=dayum_skippy]What's the best combination for a blaster jedi? (prestige class/jedi class)

For Light side and dark side.[/QUOTE]

high dex consular weapon master or watchman...maradur and assassin...

necessary feats...close combat...(you can't get that after prestige class so get it early!!!)

precise shot V

min 16 con, and high treat injury skill to make the implant that gives you blaster/rifle specialization without investing a single feat...

rest goes into dex, dex, dex...

master battle meditation improves to hit and damage...

get toughness, jedi defense (stacks with force deflect for max blaster protection)

now it seems that a jedi master would be better because of inspire followers, however you only get one feat every 3 levels, and a blaster jedi is expensive in feats, you need close combat, you need precise shot for maximum effectiveness...you can do it with a jedi master if you use a cheat to get up to very high levels...

[dayum_skippy]

High Dex
Consular/Weapon Master/Watchman/Maurader/Assassin

What about Targeting and Sneak Attack?
With a pair of Keen/Massive Critical/Stun blasters?

BTW: What does Max. Dex mean on armor?

If I have bonus of 10 Dex from gloves, implants, etc. and I'm wearing a Mandalorian Assault Armor (Max Dex bonus = 0), does that cancel out all my bonus Dex points because it limits it to 0?

you can't get targetting feats...scout only, mira only...

sneak attack happens with blasters at under 10 feet, this is why you want close attack 2...

get 2 mandalorian disintegrators (or rippers or sith disrupters) upgrade using...

pinpoint scope IV, power pulsator V, mandalorian chamber III...(massive criticals, and high high power)

use with sniper shot, and power blast...if you use master speed for a lot of critters charging you, use rapid shot...(high int is also helpful using sniper shot and powerblast) power blast and sniper shot will not have an increased attacks per round with speed powers, but have wonderful disabling and knockback effects....(once again a high intelligence is quite helpful)

using armor with a high dex character WILL NOT cancel out attack bonuses for ranged weapons, (or lightsabre with finess feats) it will cancel out the defense bonuses, but as you've seen in my other thread about armor, its not that important...

force immunity...then attack using my 90% lightsabre resistant consular weapon master with 250 point damage per hit lightsabre combination...

force storm is not the ultimate weapon...those dire beasts in korriban have a pretty good chance of resisting it completely...you need force focus to damage them consistantly...

sith lord guardian is not really that powerful...consular guardian is imho more useful...more feats, force focus is better for force powers than force jump, and you lose out on the greater lightsabre focus feats...
