Proton 3 or 4


SpaceBomb 2 (if you have the mass) and use them only when needed



My Opressor carried 3 Proton 3s, TIE Bomber was apairof Spacebomb 2, my Rihx carries a Proton 4

For PvE I use Proton 4 unless I know that there is going to be something really big and slow... then I MIGHT use spacebomb 2. However, I usually stick with the proton 4s because spacebombs take fooooorrrrreeeeevvvvverrrrrrrrr to lock on and since I use my Bel-22 I am usually moving too fast and too much to get a lock. then again.... space bombs really impress the newbs, nice visual effect... concussions too.

I have used both Proton Mark III and Concussion Mark III on the vette with great results. Two missiles per component (shields, secondary shields, etc.)


I like the concussions because of the shield damage the do. Most times I only get 1 torpodo off and it is usually early in a dogfight. With this powerful hit to their shields, I can usually finish them off quickly with the guns.


Image-recs are nice too though. Very hard to shake, and a pretty quick lock time. My primary load out on my B-wing is twin proton III launchers right now.

Well, i used spacebomb 1, and it didn't do much to the a vette. I will try torps next. I am restricted by lvl 8 equipment usage atm.

Thx for the good input. I was using the image rec, and i can't tell when i am launching the missiles. I am flying an adv xwing, so i have only enough room for one tube. I want to try out a combination of missiles and torps if my ship would allow it. Once again, thx for all the good info and experiences you have all shared.
