Great way to put your live server builds to the test.

Dead stock Quickdraws 5K and IV-4 without any basics checked can run the rapid fire test like a boss. Manage weapons in three groups and both can get off two back to back alpha strikes before heat alarms start and the 5K can one-two a pair of three-ML groups all day long. Superstock and mastered Phoenix Hawk 1, with one MG added can go four times with the MGs running constantly before shutdown. 3R Marauder, 2xPPC, 2xML, uAC5 can go three times before shutdown. And it can one-two PPCs for a long while.

Large lasers don't feel too neutered from live values. Autocannon are king and PPCs would be godly if they had more velocity. Medium lasers feel good, too. I think this PTS may be getting close on some values.

Alternatively, you can join one of Sader's test sessions and actually play with live people, where you'll discover how utterly awful IS large lasers are and how powerful the cERML really is.

Yeah, that's actually why I was on PTS. Except no one was home, so I hit the Academy instead.
