Until I started playing with this I hadn't noticed that there isn't empire faction XL ammo either, only pirate. Looking at killmails it looks like Guristas is preferred - perhaps because of leet CFC ratters? :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06561998031457981240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5430175273066918725.post-72306370396941427812015-03-26T16:47:43.047-04:002015-03-26T16:47:43.047-04:00There are meta variants of XL guns.

Let's do the same Moros but with Meta Ion Siege Blasters and faction antimatter. That's now 1510 dps.<br /><br />I do see I didn't put rigs on my test fittings, so that's be a boost, but that's true for the Hyperion fit I mention there too. With a Collision Accelerator and a Burst Accelerator (which takes all of the calibration) the Moros gets to 1597. Add implants (as you may have in your PVE Rattlesnake) or a fourth MagStab then of course that will go up.

In the case of my cruise Rattlesnake with sentries (and tank - plenty of gankers in Osmon), I get 1400dps. At 50km...<br /><br />Why would anybody fly a dread? <br /><br />Are these figures indeed correct?<br /><br />What am I missing here?Absence of Substancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15123170586817254667noreply@blogger.com
