for the moment i have an eagle

and i have 2 nomad canons (which i may but nomad blasters instead) and 2 salamenca mk2

i want 4 skyblast B but they consume LOADS of energy

i used to like the fast and weak guns but now after beating SP in my patriot with only 4 lavablades mark3s I like those alittle more now.

i tend to use one 8.33 as a tracer to help aiming, one 5.88, couple of 4.00 and the rest 3.03 or 2.00.

Helps to have one 8.33 as a shield bashing panic mongerer. When you see the way other people react to the sound of their shields being hit, regardless of the damage being done, you'll know what i mean

Just my $0.02, but it could just be the cardamine talking.

Personally, I prefer slow powerful weapons, mainly because my aim is top notch so I don't really need the faster refire rate.

i go for the fast guns, its more fun to pummel em then to knock em off with like 2 hits

i know have an Eagle with :

Skyblast B
Skyblast B
Nomad energy canon
Nomad energy canon
Sunblast B
Sunblast B
Mine
Counter-Measures

i use 2 sunblast B's because with more skyblasts it uses too much energy

you gatta have a mix of both cause quick weak ones are good on sheilds and slow power ones are good on the ship so have a mix and you should be fine!!!!
