Bigest Range Weapons

If you are stuck in a mission and do not know how to continue, this is the place to ask for help. Missing that elusive Level 10 Shield? Don''t know where to find the lost Ohtori ship? This is the only place where spoilers are allowed!

Bigest Range Weapons

Does anybody know which class 9 and 10 weapons have d bigest range of them all. Please include turrets i am especialy interested in those.

Post Mon May 05, 2003 4:04 am

c9: Bounty Hunter Buckshot guns and turrets, 750m range, 750m/s speed
c10: all c10 guns have 699m range, there are no c10 turrets

use tachyon weapons that shoots at 800m...

the best weapons, other than the nomads, are the GMG skyblast.
Coupled this with a TDC or 2, you have a killer config.

The tachyon weapons that have 800m range only go up to c8.

Thanks guys and or girls This will keep me bussy getting to those for a little while. I wana try a different aproach. Assasinate them from a distance.

for range, you sacrifice damage though

Ya know..life is a game, a very complex game, the main difference from a computer game is that the game of life has no save reload button...

Well I still neen help on this. The subject guns aren't located on any of the known wrecks which means I have to buy them and I don't have a clue where. I actualy don't even know where to buy any bounty hunters equipment.

Which ones are tachyon weapons n do I have to buy dem or can I pick dem up from some wrecks.

Thanks to all who contribute here!!!

You don't necessarily sacrifice damage for range, in some cases you sacrifice efficiency... in some cases neither: Kraken Type 2, for example.

Bounty Hunter weapons can be bought at their bases, Deshima Station in Shiko-ku, Sheffield Station in Manchester... those are the ones I remember.

There are only tachyon turrets that go up to 800m, the guns of the same type are 700m. There are many different types: IMG Matterthief and Vampire, Outcast Dragoon, Junker Hellflurry, Bundschuh Luger, Rheinland Stealthblade and Hornviper.

I like those guns that shoots like small stars (stunpulse..)

who cares about the range? if you are into dogfigth, check the speed (700ms and above) and check fire rate (4.00 and above)

if you are into battleship pummeling, any slow firing weapon with lots of hull damage will do..

I'm checking out all possible config's, the one i have now is

Eagle with:- 2 Tizona del Cid's
- 2 DIAMONDBACKS
- 2 Nomad Energy Cannons

This config is (4 my own oppinion) the best i had till now

Any idea's are always welcome

Throw your diamondbacks for nomads weapons. Over time, they do more damage...and uses no energy. Keep the tdc..

Post Mon May 12, 2003 11:17 am

I use

2x Wrym Type 2
2xDiamondback
2xNomad Cannon
Salamanca turret

I prefer doing more damage per shot, For me I can kill things faster like that..
