Crafting and weapon types

Post » Wed Sep 01, 2010 4:09 pm

Quick question regarding crafting and weapons. I thought I heard that:

Repair was going to be related to the ammo crafting.

Science was to be related to modding weapons.

These two lvl 6 perks make it seem like science has something to do with crafting energy weapon ammunition.

Vigilant recycler (science 70): recovers energy weapon casings

Handloader (repair 70): recover casings from guns

Can anyone clarify this? How exactly to the crafting skills relate to weapon types? Also what will govern explosive crafting?

Sorry if this has been covered.

What do you mean?
Repair governs ammo crafting for regular guns
and Science for energy ammo. Pretty straightforward.

I thought repair governed all craftable ammo types.

so i guess science now gives you:

computer hacking
craftable energy ammo
weapon modding

I was just thinkin about an energy weapons character and if repair or science would be a better match.

Oh, maybe it does. Ask one of the more knowledgable forum goers.
