Lets take the tests with some weapon loadouts on the all new Hornet F7A Mk2 even further. This time with my previous loved attritions, deadbolt and lightstrike.
You are not a PvP king but you are a very good bounty hunter, I tell you this as a fellow bounty hunter and space cop 😁 You are modest but you are very good in fights. In PvP, people use Omnisky mostly + Reventants, Mantis or something fast. Hornet, Buccanner, any other interceptor are stronk now because of pushing speed. This needs addressing in next iteration of the game. Also CIG had to tone down a bit the NPC's, they were too accurate but I loved that challenge. Always good to stay in shape.
Nice one, saves me some money from buying all the guns. :) But god damn, that Attrition part was so annoying to watch, that recharge rate is atrocious!
Before we were able to shoot 2x as long as it took to recharge. That is now flipped. It takes 2x as long as we can shoot. My favourites at the moment are FL cannons. Shoot faster than Omniskys which means better tracing and also have higher velocity but a little more spread. But its very enjoyable. I do think as far as attritions go you want to pair them with MxAs. Use the attritions to trace your target to land shots with the big cannons. I am not at that stage yet, but I still don't see ballistics viable for PvE especially when it comes to bigger targets. Try the FLs, and yes the long recharge is just something we have to get used to.
I am pretty okay with Ballistics for PVE atm. You can do quite alot of contracts with 1 reload and yes you still can kill a HH with a fighter. The FL are the Lightstrike 3 - they share the same stats - so your suggestion i testet in this video. As i said in the video - i do like them but i still prefer the deadbolt in PVE
@@herbv3449 i dont have the number of ammo you need to kill a HH but i would attack a HH when i have around 100 shots. Even if less - you will damage the hull even if you have to restock inbetween and come back to finish the job - the damage you have done is not resetted
I felt that way about Attritions before .23 but still, put them on most ships, oddly. They've always had that... just a few more shots and then, RECHARGE.............
