    Silver Cassandra (COR GUN)

    i don't post here much but ilike to see what pple think i did this basic Math of SC vs Coffinmaker.

    The Math
    SC = Silver cassandra
    CM = Coffinmaker

    SC || 480 delay = 480/60+2.2s = 10.2s Firing time
    CM || 600 Delay = 600/60 +2.2s = 12.2s Firing time
    2/10.2 = 16.4% faster firing

    Tp
    CM || easy 6 hit 5 hit not possible without /SAM
    SC || 15.9 tp a shot *1.05 (5 store tp) *6 = 100.26 tp aka 6 hit build and since it fires 16.4% faster 16.4% more WS

    DMG per shot basic
    7/110 = 6.3% DMG less DMG for other guns (if you add in fSTR or w/e it becomes less 113/120= 5.8% less DMG so 6% less DMG a shot is a fair esitmate

    DoT 116% * 94% = 109% more DoT DMG

    WS DMG 90 AGI is safe esitmate for a WS build and say 4 STR = 1 DMG as well (fSTR) and say they have 80 STR - mob vit = ~ +20 STR so
    5DMG from STR and 27 DMG from AGI so +32 Base DMG
    110 +32 = 142
    7/142 = 4.9% less DMG with Silver cassandra
    116.4% faster WS * 95% WS DMG = 110.6% more WS DMG

    so 9% more Dot and 10% more WS DMg meaning you'll have about 8-9% increase in DMG with silver cassandra

    vs Martial gun toy have to give a 20% hit rate boost (unlikly) on WS from it's tp bonus to be in with a chance of beating Silver cassandra but on a side note to get the 20% boost you'd need to be at around 75% base WS hit rate and /RNG this should never be the case.

    As for murderer the 6 STR will basically negate the -2 DMG it has over coffinmaker then basically the increase in DMG is how much 6-9 Ratk increases DMG since with COr you'll prolly be averaging out 400 ratk - level dif so around 320-350 effective ratk 9/300 (best case just to show that it's definitly not more than 5%) = 3% increase in DMG so not anywhere near the 9%~ boost silver cassandra offers and for marital gun for it to give a 10% boost the tp bonus will have to offer +49 racc from tp bonus.

    anyhow i guess this is prolly advanced but iono either way i thought the results of this were pretty intresting and it looks like this could be the best gun for COR ^^ unless i missed something (let me know if i did)

    Quick Draw, and a loss of 14~15 Racc fulltiming Rajas with Silver Cassandra vs a Behemoth/+1. It's also not gold. Silver < Gold.

    All those numbers hurt mah head.

    I've always wanted to try for a Great Cassandra (which is gonna be EXPENSIVE AS FUCK! -_-) but I don't shoot for TP enough to warrant even buying the NQ. :-/

    I haven't even pulled out my Coffinmaker to use in months..

    I'll just stick to WSing in Martial, QDing in Cor. Gun+1, and shooting for TP when I have to with Peacemaker.

    Interesting numbers though. (I think :< lolnumbers)

    I tossed my CM when I got a Corsair's Gun for QD. If you were purely shooting full time this would be interesting, but I'm pretty sure it would amount to less damage than Joyeuse melee/Martial WS TP on things that you can melee, and typically things that you can't have high enough Def and/or Evasion that you'd want to stick to Detonator, which would likely make Martial a bit more desireable in that case as well.

    If you're shooting fulltime you're either using junk bullets to TP, or if you can afford to fulltime Steel you may as well go for a Death Penalty, lol.

    How could you toss CM?! It's gooooooooooolden!! I seriously wish I had a reason to use CM more b/c it's seriously the best looking (obtainable within reason) gun in the game.

    Pre-satchel I was getting pretty desperate for inventory space I still need to gather more mats for another shot at Corsair's +1, I'm about 0/10 so far.

    Seems to be a T0 from my research?

    I believe so, I have two 100+ Bonecrafting friends and can make the ingots myself, failures are still profitable at least, the only real pain is dealing with unloading the assload of NQs that I have leftover after I have them attempt for an HQ. I'm out of LS CORs to pass them out to, I usually give half to the crafter as a tip then take a month or so to unload the others, lol.

    GL with Corsair's Gun +1; took my friend over 30 synths to get mine. I cleaned her out of GP too so she had to alternate synths with signed and unsigned crystals and thankfully HQ'd with a signed one. This was about half a year ago and I STILL have half a dozen of these fucking guns to get rid of. -_-
