I am about to hand over some weapons over to a shipswrite for Reverse Engineering, and just wanted to get your take on it first.
Min Damage. 1910.1
Max Damage: 2953,5
Vs. Shield: 0.630
Vs. Armour: 0.611
Energy Per Shot: 24.0
Refire Rate: 0.330
Mass: 16,288.2
Reactor Drain: 2016.4

Is this good enough pre-RE stats, or can I do much better? Moreover, will this be good enough as the only gun in my Red TIE?

Oh just to help this is what a calculator gave me:



Average DPS vs Armor: 4502.51454545
Average DPS vs Shields: 4642.52727273
Average DPS vs Ship (Armor and Shields): 4572.52090909
Average DPS per Mass Unit: 0.28072942713
Energy per Second: 72.7272727273
DPS over Energy per Second: 62.8721625

The damages are the highest you can get without a decent Ionic Pulse from the kash mission. The Mass and the drain could be better. I managed to find a 13500 UnREed L7, and i think the drain was under 2000 UnREed.

The refire can also become lower as i've seen them as low as 0.316 UnREed.

But other than thats its a good gun. Or will be.

Thanks. I will go ahead and RE it then. Need a proper gun in my Red TIE and do not want to wait a few months while I hunt even more components to get 3k less mass and marginally less power drain.

Now I just have to get a good shield and engine

I've gotten L7s down into the 16xx range drain-wise, but 13xxx seems to be the theoretical floor for weapons...though I've looted an 11056.x mass L7 reactor. The reason you want to take drain into account with ALL REed parts that need power is that eventually WO3 will probably be fixed. It might take them 18 months to find out, like the "OMG, THERE ARE UNLIMITED DOT WEAPONS!?!?!" blunder, but it will EVENTUALLY be fixed.

...then again, I think different parts have different mass pools, hence the fact that you can loot 9xxx mass L8 armor pieces but never 9xxx mass weapons, shields, or engines.

You can also get the Energy Per Shot lower too, best I have is 22.6 pre-RE.

Lowest I've gotten is 20.2 pre-RE.

i would work on getting an l8 tri-cannon (or borstel) re gun to put in your red squint. a single l7 isnt alot of firepower. you mihgt even want to look into an l10 re gun.
