Ok, so after limong my hc assault trike rifle spy to pistols i can no longer hunt wb's with a low rank (executioner pistol).

I was looking at some of the datasheets on pistols and i noticed this:

63 A&W ‘Rapidfire’ SMG224 DEX=63 P-C=94 4/40 192 370 4 x 103 prc/frc

113 Executioner DEX=113 P-C=121 T-C=88 2/30 116 185 2 x 124-374 enr/frc

So using the executioner i get a combat rank of 63 and do 143% dammage at rate of 121 and giving i do 2*374 which gives me a total of 129426

Using the smg i should get a lot lower combat rank, doing 178% dammage at a rate of 370 which gives me a total of 271343

Does this mean that i'll do more dammage over time with the tl63 pistol than the rare one?

Cuz if this is the fact, i can go back to wb hunting with my pistol spy

Why do you need a low rank?
I was hunting warbots with 84/, was still getting lots of rares.

And im pretty sure the executioner will outdamage the smg.

Your info on Executioner is outdated methinks. :)

I'm gonna try this tonight. Just plain blasting away at a warbot with the exec, and then with the smg.
I'll time how long it takes to take one down.

Executioner got a BIG boost and neocron.ems.ru is out of date on that damage. Also beam of hell and wyatt earp got boosts... maybe a few others.

Rares are a 'lot' better than that little rapidfire.

A explosive wyatt earp is one of the best pvm guns in the game (and easy to get and cap). At least much better than lib or judge. Executioner and those 105+ TL guns might be better though.

As a PE...

Exec > Earp. Brute force a lot more damage per hit than Earp.
Slasher > Earp. If you can hit with slasher a lot, and get good RoF.
Rolh (about) = Earp. Also RoLH is 20 TLs higher, which is sad. RoLH = easier to aim, more damage, non-locational. Earp = a lot higher RoF and shorter range.
BoH < Earp. Less damage and Earp is hitting a capped resist while BoH isn't.
Judge < Earp. Judge easier to aim, more range, higher damage (by a few points), but could be lower against high resist energy. Earp has higher RoF
Lib < Earp. Lib is underpowered compared to earp and pain easer.

Earp is waaay overpowered. It's better than Libby (2 tls higher), and better or equal to all the TC PC rares inside the non-drug range. The only real reason to go TC PC is for stealth and tradeskill.
