The A-3 Justifier Mk. 2, Adjusted is an awesome weapon. It’s also the secret to how I won Easter Mayhem 2019. If you play Entropia Universe you should have this weapon! Let’s take an in-depth look at this great Laser Rifle and see what secrets we can uncover!
Base Stats:
This is the Adjusted version so the stats are a bit different from the base version. As we’ve noted this is a Laser Rifle weapon with a range of 77 meters and a weight of 3.8 kg. The A-3 Justifier Mk. 2, Adjusted does 43 HP of damage. That damage is 4 HP Penetration and 39 HP burn. It’s capable of 44 attacks per minute. This gives the gun a reload speed of 1.4 seconds. The result is DPS of 31.5 HP.
It uses 1,000 Weapon Cells or Universal ammo per use. Decay is 0.396 PEC per use. It has a maximum TT value of 85 PED and a minimum TT value of 2.55 PED with 20,821 uses between repairs. It has an efficiency of 56.7% which is average. The Damage per PEC is 2.869 HP. Since it’s a Laser Rifle it can use Energy Amps. Note that minimum TT value is not a metric that should be quoted from now on.
A-3 Justifier Mk.2, Adjusted Leveling And SIB
Part of the secret to this weapon is in it’s leveling abilities. Most UL weapons require you to be level 100 before you can use them to their full capacity. The A-3 Justifier Mk. 2, Adjusted is a bit of a rarity in that it’s recommended levels are only level 18 Laser Sniper (Hit) profession and level 18 Ranged Laser (Dmg) profession.
The weapon does have a Skill Increase Bonus, or SIB, starting at about level 18. The A-3 Justifier Mk. 2, Adjusted is designed to max at level 23. However this can be manipulated if you manipulate your skill composition.
A Weapon For Most Lower Level Players
This is a great weapon for lower level players. It should really be most peoples first UL weapon. Add in the fact you can easily max it at level 23 and it’s a great weapon to take you from lower level to low-mid level play. As I said above you can manipulate your skill composition to make the weapon max faster. This is exactly what I did for Easter Mayhem 2019 so let’s take a look at how I did it.
Skill Composition
We know the A-3 Justifier Mk. 2, Adjusted maxes at level 23 Laser Sniper (Hit) and Ranged Laser (Dmg).
The biggest contributor to the Hit profession is the Laser Rifle skill. While the largest contributor to the Damage profession is Laser Weapon Tech. These clock in at a whopping 39% and 25% respectively.
By knowing the exact skill composition of both professions you can implant or remove individual skills. Doing this will not only change your over all profession level; it will also alter how the weapon handles.
In a future article we will look at this in detail. Using this information I was actually able to max on the A-3 Justifier Mk. 2, Adjusted at approximately level 22. This helped me save PED by not having to chip out as much during Mayhem while still using the weapon to it’s full capacity.
Hidden Opportunities
There are several hidden opportunities with the A-3 Justifier Mk. 2, Adjusted. The damage range is just right that it can be VERY slightly over amped. You don’t gain the overage but this allows you to get every bit of damage you can through using an amp. While this is not ideal for everyday hunting it’s useful during competitions.
In addition you can alter the weapon’s rate of fire with items such as the Ares Ring, Improved which will also increase the DPS the weapon is capable of. This will also increase the critical chance and amount of critical damage.
Tiering The A-3 Justifier Mk. 2, Adjusted
One of the hardest parts of competing when you’re low level is the lack of UL weapons that have been tiered. It’s simply not worth it to tier most lower level weapons.
The A-3 Justifier Mk. 2, Adjusted is one of the few lower level weapons that you will often find tiered. Each tier allows you to add a damage enhancer that increases the weapons damage, ammo and decay by 10%. This is another way to increase the abilities’ of this great weapon.
Lower tier examples tiers 1-4 are not uncommon. Tier 5 examples are rare. I believe there are only a few tier 6’s (currently 3-5 I believe) and one tier 7 that I am aware of in-game. These higher tier examples make it perfect for Category 1 Mayhem Annihilation. One of the few UL weapons capable of winning in Category 1.
