Forum:Sydney's 10mm "Ultra" SMG Damage Question

I have had Sydney's 10mm "Ultra" SMG in my inventory for a long time now and it always had a max of 62 damage (or something to that effect) when I looked at the stats in the G.E.C.K. But now I just looked at it again and all of a sudden it says it can do 96 damage at full condition. This is on the PS3 version by the way. I am obviously not complaining about this, but it seems to be very weird. I would like to know if someone can explain this or if anyone else has had this happen to them.


 * (UPDATE of my situation): I just noticed that my xuanlong assault rifle has also increased its damage to 96. This can't just be a coincidence. I am wondering what could have caused these damage stat increases.


 * You probably got Ghoul Ecology and/or Superior Defender Perks, which heavily increase the damage of automatic weapons. Kamuikaze 07:07, February 10, 2010 (UTC)


 * Oh. I do have the superior defender perk, but I did not realize that that perk could raise the damage so much. That's good to know. Thanks for the explanation.Toadius2 23:05, February 10, 2010 (UTC)
