Always come back to the 4 pulse and 1 PA setup. What would you recommend upgrading 2 C4 PACs with? I thought corrosive shells were not scalable? All rights reserved. Finally i got my Enforcer cannon from Prnav Antal and can compare it with Multi-Cannon. Standard beam+MC build: https://s.orbis.zone/1602 this is a starting point. Test them. Military battleships, cruisers and also space stations are often equipped with this weapon. Multicannons are probably better for bad reflexed, but if you're willing to practice, nothing is as satisfying as plasma. PA's for the ear to ear grin when those bad boys hit home.As you do, I use multis on the 2 huge, 3 PAs (efficient of course) on the large/med and rails on the tyrannosaurus arms (2 small). 1) The player with the plasma accelerators is hitting you with the second slowest fixed-only projectile weapon in the game (dumbfires are a bit slower) with a very low (possibly the lowest) RoF in the game, with mediocre DPS and DPE. Plasma acceleration is a technique for accelerating charged particles, such as electrons, positrons, and ions, using the electric field associated with electron plasma wave or other high-gradient plasma structures. a Large Fragmentation Gimball, or a Large Plasma Accelerator if you are set on the large multicannon, use a fixed variant. End rant.If you want to goof about with plasma accelerators and are concerned about your combat skills (assuming we're talking about attacking npcs here) my suggestion would be keep your multi cannons on the corvette and for fun, buy a Vulture.

Idk why Frontier even made cannons as exact copy from WW2 tanks and same attributes and its also have around 100 rounds, this is ridiculous.

Guardian Plasma Charger Similar to a Plasma Accelerator, but poor armour penetration value makes it less effective against tougher Interceptors and difficulty to aim makes it bad for using on hearts. ie: You may as well just put it on your least powerful multi-cannon, and put other magic spells on the rest?

They are convienient to strip shields but they do very poor hull damage. grade 5 engineered gimbaled multi-cannons for your tree reflexes would be perfect The plasma acceleration structures are created either using ultra-short laser pulses or energetic particle beams that are matched to the plasma … In use, their projectiles move relatively slowly (875 m/s); this and the lack of gimballed variants make them challenging to use, especially against smaller targets. For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding. Sadly the Plasma Accelerators are fixed.

Fer de lance 4 pulse lasers vs 4 multi cannons + plasma accelerator.

I was thinking about picking up 4 more turreted lasers and egineering them with the focus mod G4 to … The plasma acceleration structures are created either using ultra-short laser pulses or energetic particle beams that are matched to the plasma parameters. Elite Dangerous: Plasma accelerator vs Cannon round speed. I'd put my money on Turreted or Gimbaled Multi-Cannons with Corrosive Shell upgrades on all of them. I know the PA looks cool and is still useful on shields, but I hear the cannon is more relyable. The cannon shell has higher velosity and can two shot most power plants on bigger ships. The large version has been known to be used as a planetary assault weapon, destroying selected areas of cities from orbit. Please note, i'm running 4 pulses on my medium hardpoints. Even KV-2 cannon will do more damage than cannons from Elite . Re: Plasma Accelerators v Cannons Post by Crimson » Wed May 04, 2016 2:52 pm Can't wait for the new weapons, but in the meantime I've got 3 Class 3 Gimbaled Pulses in primary fire group combined with 1 Class 4 Gimbaled Cannon and 2 Class 2 Gimbaled Cannons in secondary fire group on my Anaconda. 2 comments. These techniques offer a way to build high performance particle accelerators of much smaller size than conventional devices. i was thinking 1 overcharged and 1 efficient. so that the distributor draw stays the same, (but 50+% extra damage) and the thermal load will go down a lot.

They're also fitted to large trading ships and passenger liners operating in the more dangerous regions of space.

Multicannons are probably better for bad reflexed, but if you're willing to practice, nothing is as satisfying as plasma. What would you recommend upgrading 2 C4 PACs with? Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts Note: This is ONLY to be used to report spam, advertising, and problematic (harassment, fighting, or rude) posts. see witch fits your satisfaction the most.

That said, the Class 4 PA take 50% more power for only 30% more damage than the Class 3 equivalents. I'm quite fond of Efficient mods for PA's, with either Phasing Sequence and Thermal Conduit, or Plasma Slug so you can keep firing until you run out of fuel.I'd put my money on Turreted or Gimbaled Multi-Cannons with Corrosive Shell upgrades on all of them. Cannon vs Plasma Accelerator in the FDL? Well, if you plug that density into an equation that tells you how much acceleration a plasma can support, you get a big number. I've tried a lot of different loadouts on the FdL. Then go see your mate Bill and make a pair of class 3, grade 5 modded efficient plasma accelerators.
