Doesn't explain why weapons blue weapons with only three modifiers are worse than white items with one modifier, though.

Which I get a lot.

Gee, I dunno, maybe the fact that the loot is random has something to do with it?

A rifle that does 300 damage with a level requirement of 30 is worth much less than a rifle doing 300 damage with a level requirement of 20. Perhaps this is the case?

Rarity doesn't mean stronger, I have a white rocket launcher that does way more damage than a purple one I also got.

I do have an awesome class mod for soldier that regenerates team ammo at incredible speeds, I never run out of rockets and they never run out of ammo

Here's a bit of math for you.

White weapon does 157 damage and has 10% recoil reduction right?

Well, then there's this seemingly worse blue weapon, with only 121 damage right? But those modifiers are a dandy 2.4 zoom, +150% critical damage bonus and +50% damage bonus with 20% rate of fire bonus.


Do the calculations. Now imagine that sexy 50% damage bonus being hidden because less important stuff like zoom is filling up that slot. Now imagine you sold that weapon because you thought it sucked.



Now, proceed to rage.

I believe that the damage bonus is already added to the damage modifier of the weapon already, so it should still show 50% more damage than a default weapon of that type.

Anyway, I don't find all that many weapons with 5(+) modifiers, it's mostly just orange weapons with elemental damage, since that takes up 3 lines (elemental description and red flavor text), so you haven't missed all that much, really. And on those items that misses a line, it's usually the scope, so you can easily see if it's there anyway.

Just so you know, they are going to fix this in the upcoming PC patch, or it's atleast being 'investigated' so they're looking at it

Ditto. My classmod gives me +6 team ammo regen plus some extra perks to skills. I love it.

Is it possible to remove "does fire damage, pwnz flesh" lines to see possibly hidden lines?

Your math is correct.

And moot when said rarer item has none of the above modifiers.

Ive not found an item yet with 6 lines.

holy shit how did gearbox didn't notice this

Because you have not read the threads.
If you remove the 4 line limit, the new limit'll be 5 lines.

Or don't. Because the damage, accuracy etc. modifiers are already included in the stats of the weapon.

They are? What's the goddamned point in showing them then?

If they aren't already accounted for in the stats, I have a rifle that has about 103% accuracy.

Ask the guys up there at Gearbox.

Yeah, I've got it for PS3. Fuck.
It'd be nice if they updated this through PSN when/and if they do ever patch this.
