I just bought a Gen 3 quest, brand new, and it has a WAS board and all that good stuff. well, when i cap it at 20, and up the bip delay all the way, and put it on semi, it still dry fires in between like every shot, and after i turn the board off, it will fire one maybe two more shots. WTF is wrong with my board. And, after the first day of practice, half of the breach is worn silver, is this bad or will it affect anything at all. help me out.

It May be you need a New battery... Even if its new.. a new battery should help..
as for wear.. dont worry about it.. it doesnt effect a thing

instead of saying it does "like this" or "like that".... tell us EXACTLY wtf its doing. youll get alot more help that way.
adjust your bounce setting.
readjust your trigger.
pretty much i was happy as hell with the stock was settings on my quest. unless your having problems i suggest you reset your board to factory and leave it there.
there shouldnt be much need to change it unless your having problems. also make sure your trigger is not set too short. it honestly works better with a longer pull.
and as said..make sure you really do have a new battery. even if it means putting in a few different ones. sometimes a new battery really isnt. and for godsakes.........LUBE THE DAMN THING!!!!

for one thing, i said what it was doing. dry firing in between shots and firing when the board is off. it only fires after i have gone into programming, even if i dont change anything, when you press the on/off button to turn it on, it shoots a couple of times. tried 4 or 5 new 9 volts, still does it. lubed it. still does it. im not really worried about the breach anymore, as that question was answered. debounce is on 15, tried every setting on BIP delay, and it just seems like it. also tried new eyes, same problem. something is wrong with the WAS boards eye logic i think. i had an NME LE at one time with same board, started doing same thing.

well.. all you can do is Agree with me and a Few others.. WAS Quailty has Severly Went downhill.. they make an Iffy Product now adays... Thankfully they wont be in any new FEP markers.. <At least i hope not>
Sorry i couldnt help you.. it sounds like Board has Issue.. you can Try Reset the board and see if it work after

will the warranty cover it? im about to be goin to college, and i wont get to play alot, so i really dont need to buy a virtue board, but unless the warranty covers it, ill have to waste money on it.

warrenties usually dont cover the board but they have had so many probs with the WAS who knows. I say if u can buy a virtue they come with lifetime warrenties that u dont have to buy extra
