i guess i dont understand why they go for millions if they break? do they give some kind of unfair advantage in PVP ?
Yea... the quick explanation...
1) Splinter Effect is Forced SLOW aka Walk + Bleed and is hit effect
2) It can go off with a special move.. Say DISARM.. so know your Disarmed (no defense) + Walking + Bleeding.... HUGELY Powerful
3) Splinter Weapons lose Durability FAST.. but can have Powder applied to fix this...
4) You cannot powder up an imbured item.. hence you cannot powder up Splinter weapons.. SO because of this if it comes with PvP mods it's worth a TON... Why???? because people enjoy PvP and better gear improves your odds...
Example.. Disarm Archer 210 Stam suit.... + splinter Warfork... Aka Disarms target and gets luck with splinter effect going off... Target is disarmed.. walking ... bleeding.. and eating 1.25 swing speed moving shots..
