Item Database - Dreadloch Combat Remodulator

Dreadloch Combat Remodulator Icon #264837 This bizarre creation was the brainchild of a drinking club that met every Friday evening at the Dreadloch Weapons division mess hall. This version of their famous, or rather infamous, remodulator was a little more refinded with the specific purpose of using the accidental technology of the original to harness a very specific effect. While this version does even less damage than the original it has the effect of consistently reducing its target's evade skills.

1 thing...now engis > fixers! (LE nano and this).....massacre...

vlada @ 2007-03-22 16:40
dude,it uses ME as an attack skill,it sucks donkey balls ;/
vlada @ 2007-03-22 16:40
well against anyone who raised time and space that is ^^
Xira @ 2007-03-22 19:53
Ohhh.... Why!!! Im going to have to hide from Engis too!? o.o
Ilikebunnies @ 2007-03-24 00:32
Umm.. anyone bothered to look at the damage? It's only 25-50... lol

Clearly, this is a debuffing weapon (100% chance of lowering all dodge skills by 750).
Also, it means if you have high ME, your perks which rely on attack rating will land easily.
malewerecat @ 2007-03-24 03:37
ilikebunnies - the damage is so low but look at the attack/recharge, 0.02 seconds, it must be a kind of rapid fire automatic weapon, it's a tradeskiller weapon so with a lot of ME means a lot of AR.

Attack time 0.02s

Yeah, omg
Gavyyn @ 2007-03-29 15:44
dam use all tardbots ffs even the tradeskillrs can ruin ur dy >.>
Muhandes @ 2007-03-30 14:18
@Xira/malewerecat: Weapons are capped at 1/1, 0.02/0.02 just means it needs 462 ranged init to be 1/1 on full def.
farlath @ 2007-04-02 19:35
Whooooohoooo! My tradeskiller has hope for pvp again!
Ilikebunnies @ 2007-05-02 06:34
Hey, what happened to the engi only tag? :o

Hmm.. I plot!
(not that this would be useful solo without pets.. because there'd be nothing hitting your opponent, and if you want to hotswap, the nano only lasts 3 seconds... maybe in teams? or for other pet classes)
Xira @ 2007-06-06 14:51
@ Muhandes - Yeah I know that, .02/.02 is just wierd though 1/1 at full def with init debuffs? :P
Phracton @ 2007-06-15 11:46
Plain and simple: This weapon sucks. Your basically doing insignificant dmg and the debuff just doesn't matter at all because pets hit anyways. Even in teams or massraids i don't see any significant effect of the debuff. Im using it anyways because i didn't have to spent a single ip into weaponskills or ranged ini that way and could max all tradeskills (dont want to start a discussion about what sense maxing tradeskills makes) including Psychology, b&e, also all evades. @ 220 it hits for ~400 dmg with an average setup (2.2k AR, no dmg setup). Good thing about this you can get a pretty high AR as an eng and it checks TS, so you always hit on players and most mobs. Its only an option though if you want a pure tradeskiller and have other chars to perform certain tasks or a good org behind you. A weapon like this without the proc or specials but higher min dmg (like 250-250 (250)) would be nice for PvM though. :P

VS NT this is not help... ~2200 TS as defend skill
Gurudee @ 2008-01-31 03:41
This is a pvp weapon.
If you wear it to hit dyna's, you need to reroll.
If you cant see the value in a 100% removal of 750 evades in pvp...reroll.

aye, considering On Hit Target Cast Nanite Interruption 100% chance fires on misses too :P
Vabla2 @ 2008-08-06 04:30
I just love FC humor. Giving fixers a nemesis nano aimed at engies and giving engies a weapon that's basically screaming "anti fixer". At least it doesn't have AS.
Xyphos @ 2008-09-01 04:16
(0.02 / 0.02) means that this will fire as 1/1 on full def without any inits raised

(ME as AR / TS as Def ) means no weapon skills needed either and this will hit alot - engi's can get 2.6k or higher skill, vs most other prof's 1500 TS avg.

The damage on this sucks but the proc is good... Clearly it's a team pvp weapon, as engi's are in fact a supportive class... plus your team will love your blockers.

for those interested in this, I've made a setup that uses it.

in addition, use the composite TS buff for +200 more AR. (^_^)
aboynemdsoo @ 2008-11-25 17:50
so, with some Arul Sabas, and projectile dmg boosting clusters/symbs and other gear, +300 boost to dmg should be no problem, right? And at .02/.02 attack/recharge, you're looking at 25 hits per second? Non-dualable weapons at 1/1 hit once in 2 seconds, so for this weapon, that would be 50 hits in 2 secs. Doesn't that work out to 300 x 50 = 15000 in 2 seconds? Sounds ok to me...FA level dmg every hit? cool.

But, it seems way too good to be true...what am i missin?
aboynemdsoo @ 2008-11-25 17:52
er...not every hit, every 2 seconds - average time for the other weapon to hit once. WTB comment editing. And more careful posting for me :-)
Threeze @ 2008-12-02 09:31
you're missing that you can't attack/recharge weapons faster than 1/1.
.02/.02 just means you wont need to raise inits to be 1/1 at full defence, it will ALWAYS be 1/1 at full def... like someone above said already.
aboynemdsoo @ 2008-12-03 06:08
hehe, couldn't figure out what Xyphos had been smoking to get 1/1 from .02/02...guess i should have been questioning my own state of mind instead. Thanks for the clarification.
Ats @ 2008-12-15 08:30
this is deadly in the hands of a crat.
Saetos @ 2009-05-12 04:02
No weapon can fire below 1/1. If you get an amount of init that would make this fire at or lower than 1/1, it will go to 1/1.
Backstabber @ 2009-05-17 23:12
mmk this is sorta useful, as a shade this debuff hurts a lot in pvp and i dont really have enough TS to evade it.. pets that normally dont hit me all of a sudden are critting me and bleh it just isnt cool :P
O-P @ 2009-08-03 07:44
To be honest, almost all profs require to raise TS for their nanos except Advy...
Binarybot @ 2010-03-17 22:35
Raised, yes... but enough to avoid being hit by an engineer with 2.6k+ ME self buffed? Dof / Limber wont help, but crats may come out ahead because of their high AAD count. And it only takes 1 hit to land -750 evades, and that could be enough to open the door for others. Definitely a team pvp situation.

The debuff goes off even on misses. If someone with a remod is shooting at you, you have -750 evades.
Ats @ 2010-11-29 05:38
yeah doesn't matter if the guy had 10k Time and Space, its always going to debuff you.

WTB dual wield with the engi pistol...

Overall looks like an interesting gun, also gives me a reason to bug Traders for their Maestro.
