L10 guns best config

I have recently aquired a titan, and almost all of the coded l10 guns. I'm looking for advice on the best configuration of weapons in this instance. Any ideas?

Step One- Get yourself some Nomad Weapons. Step Two- Unequip the Codname weapons(sell them, if you like) and equip the Nomad weapons, instead. Step Three- Sell the Titan and buy yourself a brand-spankin' new Eagle. That should put you in a pretty good position.

This one has been talked about and talked about, and everyone likes something a little different. If you have 'em all, why not try 'em?

Welcome to the board and stuff, but read through some of the older threads before posting your question...


Ever get the feeling... you're standing on plastic?

Have you seen how many older threads there are? Thanks for the input guys.

OK, here's my 2 cents:


I like using one pair with 3.03 refire rate, and one with 2.00 refire rate. Usually a pair of 'JADE's and a pair of 'DIAMONDBACK's. This is because of the way that shields work. If a shield has only 100 points of strength left, and you smack it with 4000 points of damage, it will only knock the shield down and won't carry through to damage the hull.

With weapons firing in a 'staggered' rhthym (like the config. above), you won't be hitting with all weapons at once, so less damage is wasted in knocking down the last shreds of shields.


I also usually add in a couple of Skyblast B's, to use on fast moving ships or on ships with only a tiny bit of hull-strength left - it saves on energy.

MISSILES !! Cannonballs,firestalkers,blah blah blah...equip 4 hardpoints with missile launchers and group em.A single salvo WILL kill any damned thing that moves.....ok maybe im just blowin my top but against most ships,it works. *ammo don't come cheap* an expensive but classy way to kill if you ask me....

DIAMONDBACK + WILDFIRE + 2 CANNONBALL MISSILES = 1 dead mother****er...

I've found that the level 10 guns can leave a bit to be desired at times. I've only got 4 of em but still need to find the best combination of them. yhe nomads are a bit over rated yeah they have good guns buy not purchaseable anywhere that i've been yet.

I use two Diamondbacks with Nomad Energy Cannons(?) or blaster I don't remember. The reason for this is because I had previously been using two Jades I think, but I found the Nomad Energy Cannon had more firepower, same refire rate, (range i think too), and of course best of all, uses no power, so it seemed like a good deal. These and the best Class 9 weapons, (Skyblast B's?) Makes for a good combo.

Live Long and Prosper.

Best class 9 weapon is TDC hands down.
