I'm going to stop working on this thread as my personal interests died when I realised that we don't have alot of good choices as docs. After I spent alot of time and money on the greed Shotgun, I decided that there's no point.
Right, so I have been in a great mood to do some crazy calcs for alternative weapons for my doc. The first thing that caught my attention was weapons that do better damage in pvm, so I boldly started calculating for a Dshark... Which pretty much failed really hard (Were off by about 200 Assault rifle and 400'ish Full Auto).
Soo...
I started to think about other weapons obviously, and started looking at these new shiny toys that came with our oh so beloved Booster Pack: Legacy of the XAN. As I'm a very curious person, I want to try it all really.
What I want to you to do, is to suggest me some viable end-game weapons, both pvm and pvp, that you think would be nice to try out, or just troll/give feedback to this idea.
As a start atleast, these are the weapons I want to make a setup for, and some calculations:
Sloth of the XAN - Not doable
Excel calc (Coming soon) - Auno.org setup (Coming soon)
First thoughts:
This XAN grenade rifle looks pretty neat, have great mods and looks to do pretty good damage. But, the implants for the grenade skills is placed in Eye, Right Arm and Right hand, doctors have no real support for grenade skills and the skill is dark blue.
Requirements:
2251 Grenade
1126 Fling Shot
Base skills on my Atrox doctor:
1005 Grenade (+/- 1 or 2) (Dark Blue)
1126+ Fling Shot (More than enought) (Dark Blue)
Total: (Without Towers)
Grenade: 1005+1133=2138
Fling Shot: More than enought
Conclusion:
This weapon can't be equipped by Doctors, unless there's a tower that adds over 110 grenade skills (Or I've missed something).
Dusk/Dawn of the XAN
Coming soon.
Hatred of the XAN
Coming soon.
Gluttony of the XAN
Coming soon.
Deceit of the XAN
Coming soon.
Greed of the XAN - Doable
Excel calc (Coming soon) - Auno.org setup (Coming soon)
First thoughts:
As doctors have semi-good support for shotgun, and some people prefer using it, this weapon could be an interesting choice. My biggest interest in this weapon is the HP mod and damage. It would be very viable in pvm, if you have the gear to keep it non-OE. For pvp.. well most of you seem to be having sex with all that has AS on it, so I doubt you would like this.
Requirements:
2251 Shotgun
1126 Fling Shot
Base skills on my Atrox doctor:
1200 Shotgun (+/- a few, didn't have enought IP to see the full base) (Dark Blue)
1126+ Fling Shot (More than enought) (Dark Blue)
Total: (QL250 implants)(Without Towers)
Shotgun: 2265'ish
Fling Shot: More than enought
Conclusion:
This weapon can be put on with all the good items and QL250 implants, which is pretty neat really (just think about it). 1801 shotgun is needed to keep it out of OE, I am going to plan a setup for this later on. The pros about using this gun is alot of spare IP (Not like docs don't have that already...), pretty damn good damage and looks pretty neat too. The mods are nice, especially with the +600 HP.
Abandonment of the XAN
Coming soon.
I will make this thread look better in time, and I am going to (atleast try to) post some Excel calulations on different weapons, along with Auno.org setups. The setups will mainly be based of my 220 Atrox Doc, Macilicious. I can make calculations if I get base skills from other breeds.
