It's been my experience that missles are a rather poor investment, later on in the game missles start to become very expensive. You get free firepower out of guns and honestly it's usually easier to hit with them anyways.

Lancer missles are my favorite, the ammo is kinda cheap and the missles are powerful. but if you read my post on torpedos, when used correctly torpedos can be 200 times more effective than missles in almost every way, but it takes some practice to be able to slam a starkiller into a figher mid-combat, but is actually easy after a while.

Is it just me or does everyone copy the previous poster's misspelling of "missile"?

I might do some more experimenting with thoughs missilies nStuff..

Like on the eagle.. Put the Firestalkers on one wing and the Paralyzer missiles on the other wing.. They will take up slots one and two.. Then in battle as you head towards your enemy.. Keep hitting 1, 2, 1, 2, then your fire button. That should do some damage..

So hit them with a paralyzer (like 8k shield damage) then a Firestalker (like 2.5k hull damage).. a couple times. time it to throw off their countermeasures.

Or you can go duel paralyzers.. One of them will bring down lvl10 shields. Sending two at a time will increase the chances of getting past the countermeasures. With Paralyzers, three direct hits and they are out of battery packs before you even get into weapons range.

I personally love the windstalker. They are not sheap, but they hit the target. Even against Sabres, the windstalker, without too much aiming, will hit it. From within the 1000 range, simple fire it - you'll get their shields down and some hull too.

not even the windstalker is "safe"... ive often missed targets with it

Was that a flying zuccini?

Sorry for my spelling
