I do not want a 0.5 ton weapon that does 4 damage per second without heat and at least 5.5 more tons!
I agree with you. I actually feel like AC/2s are slightly overpowered, especially when compared to AC/5s. I feel like the following would actually balance things out better and allow MGs to have a nominal DPS around 2 in ideal conditions (which never happen).
- AC/2
- Cycle Time: 0.65s
- Damage per Hit: 2
- Heat per Shot: 0.75
- DPS : 3.07
- HPS: 1.15
- Cycle Time: 0.65s
- AC/5
- Cycle Time: 1.5 or 1.4
- Damage per Hit: 5
- Heat per Shot: 1.2
- DPS: 3.33 or 3.6
- HPS: 0.8 or 0.86
- Cycle Time: 1.5 or 1.4
- AC/10
- Cycle Time: 2.5
- Damage per Hit: 10
- Heat per Shot: 3
- DPS: 4
- HPS: 1.2
- Cycle Time: 2.5
- AC/20
- Cycle Time: 4
- Damage per Hit: 20
- Heat per Shot: 6
- DPS: 5
- HPS: 1.5
- Cycle Time: 4
