Game Mechanics

• The more skilled the Slicer, the better return you'll see. (See the average results below) The weapon is still able to be used with power-ups and repairable as normal.
• A sliced weapon will decay faster, but not horribly faster.
• If you slice a weapon with a powerup attached, the powerup is automatically removed (and destroyed) before the slice is performed.
• If you slice an insured item, it will need re-insuring.

• Sliced weapons get approx. a 5-35% permanent increase in damage(min AND max)OR a 5-35% faster weapon when successfully sliced.

The ability to slice weapons comes with Slicing 3 skill training. When a player slices a weapon, they may be rewarded with either a speed stat enhancement slice or a damage stat enhancement slice to the weapon's current stats. Both events have an equal chance of occuring and the slice enhancements improve the weapon's stats by a percentage amount. The min and max range of the enhancement increases as the player gains more slicing skill training ranging from 10-25% at slicing 2 to 15-35% at master smuggler. Players must progress through these steps in order to successfully slice a weapon:

• Click on the weapon and select the Slice radial menu
• A Standard Slicing interface will open, and you can use Molecular Clamps or Flow Analyzer FANs
• If the slice is successful then the Weapon has its damage or speed stat enhanced
• If the slicing attempt fails then the weapon will remain as it is however it can never be sliced again.
