Just wondering, is there any Difference between, say......, a Tier 3 Reactor with 2400 Mass & 1450 Reactor Energy andaLvl 7 Reactor with 21000 Mass & the Same Energy Rating.


Other than the obviousMass Difference.


Dose it matter if I use Tier 3 - 4 Components, that have equel Stats to Higher lvl Parts, but less mass?

Nope. Only thing I can think of is they'll have higher armor ratings, which means you'll be able to survive slightly longer once your armor and shields get shot up, but I can't see that making a serious difference. So low-mass parts it is.

Cool to know...


As for AR's on the parts...


Some of the Tier 3 - 5 stuff i have got hold of is nearly as good as the higher stuff anyway.


But the Stats on some of my Low mass/Low Level Stuff, is Compairable to a Tier 8 - 9 part.


This is truley good to know...


Might be able to keep my Shiny, Pitch Black Kimo afterall, instead of some crappy ship that only lets you customise the pinstripes...hehehe

Yup. Use the lower mass stuff. You can find nice low mass Engines, Reactors, even shields almost if not as good as the high level stuff.
