The best pay to aim in games is to not fuck around with the cursor so much instead play the waiting game and only press the fire button when it passes over thing you try to hit.

because of the corrosion debuff

Force Shell experimental effect does that, I have it on three small cannons

At the time of the recording, missiles were the only available AX weapons and I had intentionally not studied any tactics on fighting against thargoids. I'm travelling to Pleiades sector as I'm typing this, maybe I'll encounter them again some day ;)

because PVP post engineers is bullshit and not even worth engaging in. engineers took combat logging and made it FEEL the RIGHT thing to do when YOU are the one doing it. and with NO consequence. BEFORE engineers, combat logging wasnt as prominent, because the TTK incentivised both players to stick around and see who will win the 30 second encounter. im being deadass with you. the game used to consider the skill of a cobra player against an anaconda player, and before engineers all there is is an A rated module and sacrificing your storage for shielding. now its 30 minutes because of what shields do and nobody wants to sit around and sweat for that shit anymore

I am using this gamepadviewer.com/ with custom config&assets

Thank you kindly.

Difference in damage between sizes 2 and 3 isn't actually that big, but size 3 gets 50% more piercing (60 vs 40) making them significantly more effective vs larger ships. Heat I just kinda deal with, keep pauses between bursts, I haven't specifically built my ship to have better thermal management but I think I'll have to focus on that at some point. Using only Shock Cannons seems viable enough for PvE, in the sense that they're decent for removing shields even though it's far from the most efficient, but I'd recommend using other weapons for that if you don't want to resupply often. I'm more concerned about wasting ammo on missing shots at small ships.

Hmm. Well thank you so much for your insight. I'm unlocking this weapon now as soon as possible. I unlocked the gimballed variant a while back since I had no experience with fixed weapons. In your experience, are the fixed worth it? I ask because they are expensive to unlock and I don't want to grind for weeks to then unlock all the models just to see what works

Fixed weapons in general have higher damage and lower distributor draw as their advantages, but are obviously harder to aim. They are objectively better by statistics, but when it comes to practical use I would say it's a matter of preference. You won't benefit from the extra damage and efficiency if you have low time-on-target. I have become used to fixed guns and I hate getting chaffed so I didn't even consider unlocking these on gimbal mount. They'd lose a few points of damage per shot but the potential DPS is still high regardless. Note that the Shock Cannons have increasing Jitter the faster you fire, I don't know how that works out with assisted tracking, especially at different ranges. With a fixed model I haven't found that problematic whatsoever if I stay close to target or deliberately limit my rate of fire when further away. They are perfectly accurate when firing slowly and their damage falloff starts at 2.5km so they're pretty flexible with regards to engagement range.

Like dont spread this word to much got it

Basically, yeah. Keep in mind that they're good for mostly just one thing, that is disabling your targets, not killing them. While it is undeniably a very powerful ability in a fight, I wouldn't base my entire ship build on these alone. They also require somewhat precise timing to be fully effective but it isn't hard to get used to.

Yes but as seen you were doing this in a imperial couriir i see this being a great support ship in wing battles

@@cmdrnightfang4411 i put 5 of these on my cutter and had a fight against a pvp corvette and i ran out of ammo before i could take important modules down

@@powerline4564 dude i made this comment almost a year ago i know its been nerfed

DPE is good, but overall the weapon is not very efficient at actually destroying the target. Great utility but in the future I will pair it with other weapons for dealing damage after the target is incapacitated.

Imagine using subsystem targeting with it to pick off thrusters etc.

@@ZuluRomeo sub system targetting is worse

Thank you :) I honestly wasn't expecting it to perform as well as it did. I built it for everyday mission running, but it was not bad in combat either. Having 4 different situational weapons does mean sacrificing damage potential but the versatility more than makes up for it.
