Looking for ships weapons recommendations/ideas
Working on a ship upgrade/build and I can't decide on what to do for my weapons. the two that came with the ship are four PBO-100 Auto Nutron Turrets and two Jishaku ND Railguns.
I added one Atlatl 270C Missle Launcher.
Firepower wise this setup seems to be well enough for damage but even at full power with the class C reactor things just feel "slow" for some reason. Maybe it's just me, I don't know, but given the large selection I'm thinking/wondering if there would be a better combination or better versions, maybe better with the recharge rates??

Use the Class B Vanguard particle beams and a turret that you turn on when necessary.


Bolt on an EM Canon if you think you might want to disable an occasional ship.

Thanks, I will check them out.
Disabling would be nice. Lol the ONLY time so far I have ever thought I might have too much on weapons, it is somewhat difficult to NOT just obliterate everything :D

The best weapons by weapon type and class, as measured by damage per second per power point are:

Particle Weapons
  • A Class - Vanguard Obliterator Autoprojector (37 dps/p)
  • B Class - PBO-175 Auto Helion Beam (38 dps/p)*
  • C Class - Obliterator 250 MeV Auto Alpha Beam, Light Scythe (33 dps/p)
EM Weapons
  • A Class - Nullifier 1750 Suppressor, Light Scythe (24 dps)*
  • B Class - Firebolt 4000 Suppressor, Light Scythe (19.6 dps)
  • C Class - Fulminator 8000 Suppressor, Light Scythe (15.5 dps)
Ballistic Weapons
  • A Class - Dangan W RF Autocannon (38 dps/p)
  • B Class - Vanguard Hellfire Autocannon, (68 dps/p)*
  • C Class - MKE-9A Auto Gauss Gun (37 dps/p)
Laser Weapons
  • A Class - Reza 30 THz IR Pulse Laser (32 dps/p)
  • B Class - Dragon 251P UV Pulse Laser (37 dps/p)*
  • C Class - Reza 300 PHz SX Pulse Laser (34 dps/p)
Missiles
  • A Class - Atlatl 280A, Light Scythe (27 dps/p)
  • B Class - Atlatl 280B, Light Scythe (35 dps/p)
  • C Class - Atlatl 280C, Light Scythe (66 dps/p)*

Note that in many cases the C Class is NOT the best for damage output. I don't believe there's any reason to use the higher weapon class when that is the case.

Besides DPS also check the weapons range, the ballistic and EM turrets with a range over 3000m, that you get at Deimos are brutal and they sell the best missiles that you get to fire yourself.
