Important to use weaps of same firing rate?

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!

Important to use weaps of same firing rate?

I got 4 x nomad blasters and 4 x nomad cannons. I gave all the cannons to a friend and combo my nomads blasters with 2 x L9 Sal MK2 (ie blasters & Sal MK2 all 4.00 firing rate). I top up with a L9 SkyB turret.

Now I'm wondering shld I stick to the Sal MK2 or shld I replace them with a pair of L9 SkyB guns (8.33 rate)?

Personally I love weaps tat fire fast but I also read abt better aiming and targetting when using weaps of same firing rate.

I also wonder if there is any good L9 guns with 8.33 rate (with good firepower too) and where can I find them?

I still have no luck on finding a ripper mine. I tried those ship wrecks in Omicron Alpha but no luck. Btw does the otucasts drop them after I killed them?

Thanks!

I think there is a class 9 gmg photon blaster at 8.33 fire rate called the sunfury 2, but I don't know where to find it since I looted mine.

I don't think same fire rate really matters, it's all trade off and personal prefernce (although fast rate is fun)

However, same PROJECTILE SPEED is important, since, I think, your shots will diverge at long range without it.

Sunfury 2 is fairly low level, I think. I salvaged some in hokkaido off an old wreck. I think.
