Lvl 10 guns

What are the best lvl 10 guns....

Post Wed Apr 02, 2003 7:20 pm

There are a whole bunch of them in the old battlefield in Sigma 13. There are loads of old Rheinland ships SW of Naha (I think) and you can get like 5 different lvl 10 weps.

The best ones are the Nomad Energy weapons, you can get Nomads to drop them by the unknown jump holes in Omicrons A & G.

Are they the best simply because they don't use energy?

The nomad weapons are good for several reasons; though they do slightly less damage than the "regular" lvl ten weapons, they do have a higher rate of fire; not to mention that they don't use up energy. As for the other "regular" lvl tens, I am using two wildfires; they do more than or as much damage as almost all the others, but compared to them, it has the lowest energy usage. The diamondback dos slightly more damage, but also uses more energy, so I just stick with the wildfires.

In addition to using no energy, Nomad guns also do MORE damage than the other types of c10 guns, not less. You have to multiply the single-shot damage by the refire rate to really see how fast they pump out damage. However, of the non-Nomad c10 guns, the Wild Fire guns are my choice for their high efficiency, and you can easily get 4 of them.

I think this is ARCHANGEL 1075 hull / 650 shield
Or the JADE---the BLUE BLAZES 1075 hull / 650 shield---the GUARDIAN 652 hull / 326 shield---THORS HAMMER.....

Was a while back, so might take a little digging, but someone did post the dps of pretty much every single gun you can find. If memory holds, the nomad weapons took the 1,2 spot on the list. But in reality the damage variance from gun to gun is pretty small at that level.

If your like me and just like to keep the old fire button held in till every thing in view is glittering piles of debris, then Nomad weapons are the way to go. I just hate seeing my power bar go down.

nomad weps do like 2500 hull dmg per sec (well a little more than that but whatever) the most dmging beside that is like 2k per sec , maybe a bit more but nomads do significantly more dmg , remember they do fire alot faster even though the normal dmg on them looks smaller...if it does 700 dmg at 4.0 rate thats alot more dmg than 1k dmg at 2.0 rate
