    • What's the best weapon? (no plugs)


      What so you think is the best, most powerful, most coolest, most devistating, most fun weapon of the game? I'll go with the defence pods, they're so cool! πŸ†’ You blow em up right near you and you don't get hurt. πŸ˜‰ And if you've got eight of them, they bloody hurt! πŸ˜„

      ------------------

    • Phase Turrets and Blaze Turrets. The only weapons you'll ever really need.

    • yeah, and if you have many neutron turrets can be evil, but phase turrets are easily the best, unless your fighting the voinians, then you get emalgha cannons

    • 1. The forklift
      2. Disruption rockets (against shields)
      3. Rockets (against armor)
      4. Neutron turret (against everything except mass Azdara's, Crescent fighters, Zidagar fighters)

      ------------------
      What do I put in here?

      Dispersal rockets, anyway.

      I find better phases+neutrons if against Voinians. Blazes are interesting, but have a too short range, and against Voinians, it may be problematic. And sorry for the Emalgha lovers, but though the basic of the Emalgha cannon is good, its slowness, limited range and inaccuracy makes it pratically unuseful. Sorry, I like this weapon too, but we have to be realistic.
      Numerous defence pods launchers are great, especially against masses of fighters: I worked once for the Igazras, and even if I meet 2 Azgari warships (and therefore 12 Azdaras) or 4 Zidaras (and 8 Zidagar fighters) I am always able to destroy them quickly. And I don't usually like weapons with ammo, which may be expensive at the long run, but defense pods are so cheap (500 credits each), especially in regard of others Crescent/Miranu techs, that I like this weapon

    • Swivel phase cannon. The only weapon you need on a fighter.

      Ditto. And the occasional phase and/or neutron turrets in case you're too lazy to turn around πŸ˜‰

      Sucks against Voinians though (took out the Dreadnaught with an Adzara and swivels one time, a drawn-out process). Having said that, it definitely gets my vote.

      ------------------

    • Dispersal Rockets get my vote secondary weapon-wise. Primary, I'd go with Swivel Phase Cannons.

    • God, what boring choices.

      I vote for space mines. The only weapon that gives you the power to annihilate yourself.

      ------------------
      I never conquered; rarely came

    • SPACE BOMBS
      πŸ˜„
      shove one on a ship with good accel and turning. drive toward the enemy, spin around, lob the bomb, and fly away as fast as is humanly possible. πŸ˜„ or just drop one under you and laugh πŸ˜„

    • One problem. Wrong EV. Still, space bombs aren't bad.

      Disco machine gun kills em all. Then again it probaby doesent count cause you can't get it.
      but hey! It is the best!

      You can still get space mines in EVO, and the only difference really is the graphics and the way you can get fined by UE for owning them.

      As for what I think the best weapon is, I only ever use Neutron turrets in one pilot file, and in another, I only use phase turrets.

      Nah, neutrons are too slow and take up too much space. Phase are better.

    • When it comes to cannons, I have to say the Neutron Cannon. It has a much faster rate of fire then the turreted version, and packs quite a whallop. Overall, I believe phase weapons are the best, even if their yellow weapon sprites are rather ugly...

      It certainly is a dangerous weapon, but I would categorize the forklift as a rediculous cheat.
