I never know when to use this ability; could anyone please shed some light on the topic, perhaps, when would it be ideal to use ?

Replies are greatly appreciated.

I've never used this ability (or any of the epulses), what sort of damage do they do, and with what side effects?

I use /epulse3 on a regular basis. Think of it as a grenade. The higher energy reserves to the sheilds and cap the more damage you do. Get in close to use it. I have taken out 9 tier two ships with it at once with this attack. However at the end of it your cap and sheilds are drained leaving you pretty defenseless for a few sec.


As a matter of fact I have a strike ship dedicated to the task. Its that funky rirykere(....cough....nickel...see I said the words) ship with 3.2ksheilds and a weapon cap overcharge3 pool of around 3k or so. I move that thing into position and BLAM!!!!. Thats about all its good for as the rest of the weight was allocated to engines, boosters,and armor so I could make a second pass as soon as Iam able. With that puppy you can heavilly damage a teir5 gunboat. Think of it as a kamikazee tactical nuclear device.

Bomber Strike owns though

ePulse always seem sos unreliable for me. I can't use it as a Last Ditch, because the power is dependent on your Shield and Cap power.

The Kamikaze thing dosen't sound so bad actually. Cap Overload 4, ePulse 3 FTW

I have a cap that pumps out 3710 energy with Cap OL4 and shields with f/b 2612 (level 10s) in a krayt.


Sends a nice knockout blow to lots o things in the area.
