Damage Amplifier (How good are these?)

[KnightedWarrior]

How good are these things, now that I've unlocked them and can make like 4 of them...
Are they worth the materials and research?

+15% base turret power(dmg) from amp, dont affect on core boost(if you have like 500 core power, turret will get (1.5+1.15)*[base power], not (1.5x1.15)). Allows you to overcap core boost limit and stacks, but have small radius and sometimes can switch to another(shows incorrectly and needs test in battle) turret if two with prep one set too close.

Its not so important in this state of game if you dont want to go in infinity mode. Just get enough core power and turrets.

early ? no.
later stacking those on a hellfire turret do wonder.

at 7k output and 4 amps my hellfires do 1.5 mil its way over kill

How long do they last once activated? With my 406 I get really inconsistent results.

[Kydaverous]

its continuous so long as the support or amps are not taken out and in the edit mode if you select the turret they are tethered to you can see how much it is amped by

Wait, you don't have to manually toggle them on? Just place them near and have the fancy lines go brrrr? I thoug I had to manually go there in the mission and use them with the 120sec cooldown or whatever they have?

Do the add more ammo use? Read old post saying they up'd the ammo use. But nothing in the text / UI seems to display, change, or even hint that.

each amp increases damage by 30% but supposedly also increases ammo usage by 10%

I think the damage amps are mainly useful in endless mode where things get more tanky in later waves. For the regular mode like the City area, i noticed most things die very fast just by maxing out your core power at 10k, even the bosses are dead in a few hits from a 406 without any amps.

city 5 20 cards really need amps and vipers as everything has high armor
