Verschworer Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 (edited) Hi all! thru the talent can make rail shot 115% apr, but how this work correctly 1) 35% HVGC + 20% heat sign + 30% adv. tag + 30% sup heated rail =115% will do more damage if target have more armor or this will no go bellow 0 armor 2) 20% heat sign and then we have decreased armor and then will 95% apr for rail shot so armor will never go bellow 0? some build like this http://db.darthhater.com/skill_calc/bounty_hunter/mercenary/#::f21e2fe5fe3fefefe5f4e2f3e2f5e: P.S. sorry for my English please Edited October 11, 2012 by Verschworer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gyronamics Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Can't recall if armour pen stacked or multiplied but it doesn't matter. That build is sacrificing HSM and Power Overrides to buff Railshot which you can only use every 15 seconds at best. You've lost your hardest hitting ability to gain a fraction more damage on another.
