Just cobbling together another level 6 cap because the one currently in my X-wing is fairly mediocre. Ready to RE yet, or should I try to find better mass?

These are Post-RE stats:

A: 515.1
HP: 515.1
RED: 660.1
M: 7626
CE: 1251.3
RR: 49.6

I'd try for a lower mass until publish 24. Then I'd RE it to get the 4% bonus on the RED. That's a pretty good one as it is. My L6 cap is 7200 mass post RE.

Looks good. Better than mine anyway . If you run CO4, you'll find that in a snub fighter, even an X-wing you'll have more than enough firepower and your capacitor will probably still recharge at afaster rate than it drains, or might stay level.

With CO3 and three guns with drains of about 35 and refire of .250 you should even come close to draining the cap, you can hit higher on the max energy however, mass looks pretty darn good and recharge can hit over 50, but its not that big of a deal really.

The recharge rate seems to be great, a slightly higher CE would be viable.

"I'd try for a lower mass until publish 24. Then I'd RE it to get the 4% bonus on the RED. That's a pretty good one as it is. My L6 cap is 7200 mass post RE."

Yea, I will be waiting for 24, the 4% is applied to the RED. I mean, I've got a whole stack of gear waiting to be RE'd, even if I am getting a little impatient now...


"The recharge rate seems to be great, a slightly higher CE would be viable."

Higher than 1203.2 pre-RE on a level 6 cap? You sure? Without trying to toot my own horn here, 1203 is the best I've seen.


Slight bump to say I picked up a new cap for mass 7522.6 pre RE, goes to 7221.7 post RE, I did see another one on vendor search that was 7500 pre RE, but it wasn't for sale.
