New SIB Weapons Charts

[kingjehu]

Much respect to the standard SIB charts from Solaris.

However, I found myself using his chart as a starting point and then having to look at a couple other things from entropedia and elsewhere.

So I set out to make a nice looking chart with all the basic info needed to maximize the SIB system at a glance.

What is included:
1. The starting SIB level
2. The max SIB level
(having both of these shows the item SIB range which is extreamly important)
3. The Dmg/sec for weapons.
4. Updated images of the VU10 items

SIB = Skill Increase Bonus
Certain items give extra skills for increasing durations of professional levels. Using SIB items gives faster skill gains and thus faster professional leveling. Maxed SIB items are also good choices for economical gameplay because you are getting the most use/pec.
(Non-SIB items require 100 levels to get the max use).

Here are the major weapon systems:
I will add more charts for other items if these seem useful to others.
Look for new SIB threads to start in appropriate locations once I begin charts for other the professions.

Laser Pistol:


BLP Rifle:

SIB means Skill Increase Bonus.
This means that if you had one weapon with SIB, and another without, you would get more skills with the one that had the SIB, as the one without.

SIB can be yes, never, not yet, not anymore.

Why SIB is so important, is because of when a weapon is 'maxed', in other words, what level you can handle the weapon most efficient.
For each item that says 'never' with SIB, you need professional level 100 to be most efficient with it.
For items that do have SIB, you can see the chart when the SIB starts, and when you are most efficient with it (usually, when the SIB is 'not anymore')
So, that means for the sollomate opalo, you can already use it as best as you can at level 5, instead of 100, which can save a lot of money, compared to say a jester D1, the previous starting weapon.
