Randomly-generated looted weapons[]

I've removed a few of the randomly-generated looted weapons from the list. The stats, combat level, and so on for these weapons is more or less totally random, and they bear little resemblance to the crafted versions of the same weapons, except by name and appearance. There's no point keeping track of all these things, when they have no fixed stats at all. :) Please note: This only applies to the truly random ones, not the Adjusted/Converted/Modified/etc. fixed variants. --Gravecat 12:12, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Revert to List[]

I believe this article needs to be reverted to the list form because of:

1. Excessive Redlinks
2. Insufficient Information (i.e. does not list the CL req. for each weapon etc.)
3. Difficult to Discern Organization (i.e. picture difficult to match to weapon)

This article and the Pistol article need to be reverted to match formatting of the Rifles and Heavy Weapons article. This was much easier for ME (I don't know about others) to understand before it was changed from a list to a table. Thank you -- Fett 1138 ^{(HoloNet Transceiver)} 17:58, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

I prefer the new format myself, it's taken from the Weapon Specs Thread [2] which makes it a useful guide when you want a weapon crafted. The reason CLs aren't listed is because crafted weapons can now be any CL, although a seperate table would be useful for reward weapons and the standardised random looted weapons (Modified, Converted etc.) which do have set CLs.

Shouldn't we at least remove the links so it doesn't have so many redlinks (and regular links that redirect to the page), and format heavy weapons and rifles to match? -- Fett 1138 ^{(HoloNet Transceiver)} 20:14, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

The red links are only temporary. They will all be replaced with articles similar to Scout Blaster as I have time. I'll also try and work on heavy weapons and rifles this weekend.Valtier 20:52, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Some Suggestions[]

A set of suggestions...

• With CL's we should list the levels on quest rewards, loot etc., and on craftable ones simply put "varies". Also, on deconstructable weapons, I suggest putting the standard level without being reconstructed.
• On professions, I say we should state "none" rather than "-" on weapons that aren't specialized.
• On the separate articles we should have another section on weapon stats rather than JUST having crafting stats.

These suggestions stand for ALL of the weapon articles, and I would gladly apply them myself if they are agreed on. I will also take screenshots of the different weapons in game and crop them for use in the gallery (pistols, carbines, rifles and heavy weapons).

(Also, the image for EE-3 Carbine is incorrect, that image is for Exemplar's Mark (image may be Pre-CU, I wouldn't know).)

Thanks -- Fett 1138 ^{(HoloNet Transceiver)} 05:06, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

I am creating stub articles to eliminate any remaining redlinks, please update ASAP. Also, I am adding the suggested changes to the Carbine, Rifle, Pistol, and Heavy Weapon pages, revert if decided against. I will try take new and up to date screenshots of ALL the weapons as soon as I can. -- Fett 1138 ^{(HoloNet Transceiver)} 01:54, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
