lasers

With the new, supposedly PvP focused, Powerplay 2.0 arriving soon-ish, i propose a new set of Laser Hardpoints to be added: Those will have 3 major differences to the current existing Lasers: 1: Increased Damage (2x or higher?) 2: Increased Damage falloff starting Range (1000-1200m) 3: Greatly...

I have troubles figuring out what are the advantages of the burst lasers and when they are preferable over the pulse laser. I extracted the raw weapon stats from the game into a sheet and calculated some efficiency values like "damage per distributor energy", "damage per heat produces" and...

Hi guys, I bought an Anaconda I'd like to use to hunt pirates in RES or limited conflict. The idea is take bounty and to loot them thx to collector limpets. I was wondering if I should stick to my gimballed weapons or switch to turrets with this ship. As she is a big baby ;) And what kind of...

So when I get back to the bubble I want to make a bounty hunting ship. That said I want to make it interesting in that I want to give the weapons fun special effects ie things like force shell for the cannon(s). My questions are, do cannons have to be real big for the push effect and what...

Lasers! 114 Piercing Large Focused BURST\PULSE... Module Surgery? ﴾͡๏̯͡๏﴿ O'RLY? Lasers….a weapon I have not used for a long time..seeing how Plasma Accelerators are a gift from the elite gods I have not used them in ages and never modded any…So I have been looking at Pulse and Burst lasers and...

Hello everyone! Today I'd like to make some suggestions for new weapons ingame that would fit into some not-yet filled niches, create new or alternative playstyles and would be just fun to mess around with. I'd like to present two weapon concepts that I have been thinking about recently. Those...

Hello all, Now, I'd like to discuss the heat-related experimental effects of the engineers. First off, however I'd ask for some clarifications on heat buildup, heat signatures and detection range: If I run multiple thermal shock lasers, will their effects stack or is there some kind of...

After quite some testing with Inertial impact burstos on both my Python and Eagle, I really can't find any use for it. It drops off your real DPS by around 90-99% if you're over 300 meters away. Even when latching my nose to the butt of an FDL with my ImpEagle, it just won't get useful and only...

This is going to be a long post, prepare yourself. Anyone with any experience knows that most ships are under constant fire in PVP, this is exceptionally true in both winged combat and 1v1’s and especially for large ships, good luck ever getting an ammo synthesis off vs a competent pilot. One...

I would really like to see an updated version to this intro tune included somewhere in this game, even if it's only put on the official soundtrack. I still think it is one of the best instrumentals I've ever listened too and would really like to hear a full on orchestral version. Please make...
