My CN9-A just did more damage than my CPLT-A1. Why does 6xSRM6 do less than 3xSRM6. Don't tell me the 400 damage difference came from the 2 medium lasers >_<

EDIT: Ran the A1 again. 2 shotted a CTF and then 2 shotted a JM6. Never forget the original splat.

Part of it is due to the attention catapults attract. They are generally seen as a greater risk.

Mediums are often underestimated and this is often their greatest strength.


I suspect enemies were ignoring you a bit more in that cent A which allowed you to do better with it.

There's no way 3+ alphas (that landed) did only 176 damage though, regardless of it being a CPLT or a CN9

Splash damage issues combined with the need for HSR on missiles I guess.

SRMs really need some buffs to make them useful again.

a 6 srm6 cat-a1 has a 54point alpha
so, actually, yes there is a way it can do only 176 damage.

Oh yeah, forgot the base damage is less than 2 now. They are supposed to do more than 2 per missile though when splash damage is included.

Anyway, OP updated.
