I’ve only ever used the Photon Cannon lol
Although I did recently install the Positron since I heard it’s really good at quickly mining underwater rocks and plants.
Probably gonna replace my Photon Cannon with the Infra Knife, that thing looks awesome maxed out!!
Phase beam for shield drain, sentinal photon cannon for range and positron ejector up close.
ОтветитьPhoton an rocket combo is rly good
ОтветитьMagnificent
Ответитьmad lad playing with camera shake. Disable it lol
Ответитьdoes enemy health scale with your damage? my infra knife has 77k dps, yet its not really that much faster ttk than my photon cannons at 10k dps
ОтветитьIdk which one is the best, But ik fo sure Cyclotron is unreliable, No point in Rockets, And If shields are down and u get close, Positron is Deadly! Also that’s my fav asteroid destroyer
ОтветитьI've been happy enough with just the photon, to drop sheilds, then missiles to finish off. Works well enough I have no worries, plus leaves me feeling like I'm doing fighter pilot stuff.
However, I was unaware of what you say about the cyclotron affecting enemy drives, and someone else below saying it has longer range. I'll give that a try as a phot replacement. Thanks for the info!
The Positron Ejector has been the most useful ship weapon for me.
It does a lot of damage to enemy pilots. And gets rid of their shields quickly.
With a ship with 4 supercharge slots squared.. the infra knife is insane.. but back up weapons are cycletron to slow ship down and the rocket launcher to one shot.. I carry those 3 main weapons maxed out and with the infra being supercharged.. it's so much fun combo.. infra the shields and cycle to cycletron (no pun intended) to disable shields.. then the rocket launcher for the one shot kill.. just because we all love to shoot rockets at stuff.. lol.. :).
Ответитьmy first dreadnought battle, the civilians died the pirates escaped, my second one the same thing happened but i realized i can just fly through their shield generators breaking them doing little to no damage to myself lol
ОтветитьYou forgot the sentinal photon cannon. It's the fastest weapon in the game.
ОтветитьImagine putting positron ejector in a 2x2 overcharged slots, with all maximum x class upgrades. I'd wager you can probably one shot anything in the game!
ОтветитьThey should really do something about those poor rockets, it only ever had a single c class upgrade, what we need is some more rocket boosting s class modules, as well as flavor upgrades like rpg or heat seeking! We need an explosives update!
ОтветитьMe who uses all of them: Oh yeah, it’s big brain time.
ОтветитьPhase beam isnt really a weapon. I use it to recharge my ships shields and then use infra to destroy everything. I melt everything having topped out black market mods.
ОтветитьI really wish the Rocket Launcher got its own upgrade modules, rockets are so cool
ОтветитьNice video.
ОтветитьTo add up a bit.
- Photon Cannon is the only weapon with built-in lock-on, and despite the animation, it is a hitscan weapon, making it the easiest weapon to land hits.
- Phase Beam has the longest range of 3000 while everything else have 1500 except Positron Ejector that has 750, same as mobs attack range, but with stupid autolock mechanic it requires much closer range and/or special techniques to land some continuous hit properly. But very good at being a secondary to recharge shield, especially in Living Ship (Grafted Eyes) which almost all the upgrades give Shield Recharge bonus when grown to S.
- Cyclotron Ballista has largest projectile hitbox makes it second easiest to shoot next to Photon Cannon
Ima be honest past 20k DPS nothing matters because everything you see melts like it was never there
ОтветитьIll havr to look at what exactly is specifically going on, but i have somehow managed to make a cyclotron ballista that is a decently fast damage dealer. To the point that i don't even switch weapons during dreadnaught combat and i only switch to rockets for fighting other small ships for the extra burst damage.
ОтветитьHands down, the laser is the best thing for shields. There's nothing else that can cut through shields like butter and restore your own at the same time. Then you can just switch to infra-knives and take anything out with ease.
ОтветитьInfra knife is better against big ships... but misses a lot manouvering small ships... Id prefer either Cyclotron to slow ship then kill it emidietly... or just Shotgunning anything. Its bit slower for me against freighters but hey... they are not dangerous
ОтветитьInfraknife seems good all around, Cyclotron is Good if you have positron as secondary. Essentually a you get shield down and when they come in close to get behind you you swap and shotgun blast close range.
ОтветитьIf you put the infra knife in a super charge slot, it is.. overpowered
Ответитьfor me the best weapon is the guardian cannon, rapid fire, overheating occurs very slowly, no need to switch, quickly destroys the shield and the enemy
ОтветитьEpic informative NMS upload @Colmatt, thank you! We haven't gamed NMS on PS for some time and I was confused when after the update all my starship's weapons and tech were all misconfigured or not installed. With the current version can we still setup the weapons with the chain of upgrades in the general cargo inventory? Also that is new to us that we can still 3 more connected upgrades in the technology section per onboard weapon, I've never tried that. That's some off the hook firepower. Game On • Be well kind gamers!
ОтветитьMy personal favorites are the Cyclotron Ballista, Infra Knifes, and Rockets
ОтветитьA little tip to avoid overheating; mash the button and dont hold it. If you get the timing right, you can have the exact same fire rate except the overheat bar barely rises
ОтветитьInfra Knife....
ОтветитьI use Infra Knife and Photon Beam, but after first two minutes of the video I'm definitely adding Cyclotron Ballista in my build, the slow against Sentinels is invaluable
ОтветитьI presonally use the basita with rockets and photon to destroy shield damage most of the hull with rockets and finish them off with the photon. I find it annoying to switch between all the other weapons and like to have a select few
ОтветитьI usually just use cycltron ballista to take down shield and slow enemy then use the rockets to one-shot them
If there is any health left (usually almost none) I can just use a third weapon to take that down
There is only the infra knife, even vs shields its way, way better than anything else.
ОтветитьGreat video. I tend to use the infraknife most of the time. It just looks good and sounds good to me. I enjoy it for combat and mining roids. The best weapon is actually the positron ejector though. It us actually the best weapon and roids tool period. A couple of upgrades on it to allow for more rounds before overheat and it's a true beast. It tears through ship shields and then hull like paper. Fast and efficient at mining too.
ОтветитьI use the positron as my main and photon as my secondary.
ОтветитьI like the phase lasers, reminds me of star trek and star wars
Ответитьphase beam does more dmg because you reset the dmg tick when you hover away and back
ОтветитьIf you keep pressing the fire button instead of holdinging it, no weapon other than the rocket launcher can overheat, even without upgrades.
ОтветитьWhen I first started the game, I was really excited and looking forward to min-maxing the weapons. Once I finally got a ship I really liked and wanted to upgrade, I headed over to the anomaly to find the optimum weapon loadout. Just be reading the description of the weapons, I figured that the simplest but most effective combo would be cyclotron to drain shields, then infra-knife to deal hull damage. After installing and upgrading both weapons as much as was practical with the resources on hand, I noticed that the infra-knife (although stated to be primarily a hull damage dealer) did significantly more damage to shields than the cyclotron (whose whole purpose for existing is draining shields). I thought this was silly but immediately got rid of the cyclotron, freeing my ship up for many more upgrades. Also, with the upgrades I had, the cooldown was nearly instant, and it took about 10-15 seconds of consistent fire to overheat, so there really wasn't any penalty to only using the one weapon.
tl;dr INFRA-KNIFE GO BRRRRRRRR
Some things to note for Infra Knife: It's the best weapon for taking down Sentinel capital ships however for faster moving targets the auto-aim can be a little wonky (on Xbox, don't know about other versions) and will often send a stream of bullets to where the enemy *was*, so the actual DPS drops down significantly. Funny enough, the regular Photon Cannon (and its Sentinel's variant) is a lot more accurate with the auto-aim. I suggest disabling the auto-follow feature and flying on full manual, using reverse thrust if the enemy comes too close. If you align yourself properly you can expect to vaporize a regular Sentinel in 1-2 seconds depending on how many supercharged slots you could spare for the IK and the ship's class damage bonus.
ОтветитьThe positron ejector is also great for farming resources from planet surfaces.
ОтветитьThe phase beam actually charges your shield with no upgrades, the upgrade just gives you extra on the initial impact
ОтветитьInfra Knife for quick damage.
Rockets for a heavy finishing blow.
Phase Beam to vampire enemy shielding, as my Sentinel ship doesn’t accept star shield batteries and I don’t want to use all my sodium/radiant shards.
I could only last long enough for taking down a sentinal frigate with a phase beam, infra knife, and photon cannon. When getting swarmed, phase beam shield leach is godly. Pirates and sentinels are nothing if I can leech off their shield. Phase beam mods and maxed-out photon cannon are Too Perfectly OP.
ОтветитьInfra-Knife is king. Especially when after hours of re-rolling X-graded modules I got an absolutely beautiful roll. Then I archived the module, duplicated it twice, installed them around the Infra-Knife in a 2x2, Infra-Knife on a supercharged slot. I'll edit this comment later with the actual stats.
ОтветитьThe Infra knife keeps auto aiming for no reason and missing most of the shots. Positron ejector is way better!
ОтветитьI am looking to max out an exotic I just bought, what weapon do you think I should use if I want it to absolutely shred everything including Sentinel capitals?
ОтветитьYou use the cyclotron ballista to bring down shields, then flick over to the rocket launcher for one shot now that the hull is exposed, then flick over to the infra-knife accelerator to finish it off before its shields recharge. That's the optimum weapon setup for combat in this game. It's not complicated.
