    I still feel like that the Ion is better atleast from my practical experience. Or my Inferno is heavily bugged.
    Played Xenothreat and shot a HH with the Inferno for about 2.7k bullets... 0 damage. Shot a Cutlass for 10 seconds and its barely red.
    Played the Ion before the Inferno and blew the Gladius in 1 shot and the cutty's in 3-4 shots. A couple of charged shots to take down a HHs frontal shield and a couple of shots on the bridge and it was gone.
    I like the Inferno way more but it just doesnt work. The spread is also pretty insane now or atleast it feels like it

      sounds sad, but you are right. Its not totally useless but the sister Inferno does the job just way better, so in the end ... its nearly useless

    The Ion just makes me sad, man. I get that you can't have it snipe smaller ships from across stanton, but it is utterly useless right now. :(

    Throughout the footage a lot of your shots were uncharged, so doing minimal dmg. With that being said, this charging mechanic completely killed the Ion, that shit needs to go! xD

      Because i noticed that when you charge your shots and miss - you loose alot of time - time where the enemy got the shield recharged. The fight against the Inferno was exactly extremly long because of this

      @@joronasc That's exactly why this whole new system is ridiculous. Not only is the DPS lower by default, but charging shots that you cannot release on command are also much harder to hit. Just a big L on CiG's side.

    respect for the video they say inferno is like ion ? capital killers ? pff ion meaby . put inferno shoud be diffrent ion 2 >.< ... crtl+v = Whether heading up a crew or hunting big ships solo, the Ares Inferno is a force to be reckoned with. This ballistic Gatling-equipped variant tears through gunship armor and turns smaller fighters to dust in seconds. 3800 bullets ? just give me 380 of them with 1-2-3 bullests 1 is slow to shoot 2-medium and right after that a high 3th bullet then is balistit laser ? i know they wnat to keep them nerf . but they have a plan :)) i hope >.

    Ion can do either 1500 or 6000 alpha damage currently - you have to fully charge it to get the 6k, anything below is 1,5k so you were very ineffective even against the HH which is big enough to comfortably fire fully charged shots. That being said, the dps even on the fully charged shots is ~1800 so pretty terrible, however the charge mechanic should be a very good balancing mechanic fo this ship. It just needs way more damage on the charged shot, like 10k + and it could then potentially be viable and hopefully decently balanced even against smaller ships.

      My tests i do on this channel are mostly practically. I do sometimes add the raw numbers but mostly they dont mean as much as the test flying the ship and try to get it to work properly.
      And i failed to do so with the Ion. I am quite experienced in doing AI Bountys so while i cannot eliminate the "Skill issue" - argument completly i dont believe that the "Normal SC" player will have way better results with that ship.
      I think the part where i killed 2 times the Conny with the Inferno in less time than i needed with the Ion for a onetime kill shows exactly how bad the Ion is currently.

      @@joronasc It was not about skill but rather lack of knowledge I guess? :) You get around 1800 potential dps with fully charged shots but only around 1200 with non-fully charged shots (if I am not mistaken). And, again, there is no damage increase if you charge less than 100%. While it makes sense that trying to fire charged shots at a target like another Ion is probably not going to be realistic, there is no reason not to charge the shots (at least the vast majority of shots) against large enough targets like HH. You still won't achieve viable amount of damage but it will be more effective and its the way to go in this case.

      Yeah, the Ion should be a threat if there is more than one. 2x Ion's with a modified alpha of 10k for a fully charged shot would take down a hammerhead's shield pretty quickly, which is the whole point of the ship

      I made a video half a year ago about the Ion, after the buff, and was curious of if they gone to far with the buff. At this time i was completly wrong, and the Ion was in a good place.
      It seems to be hard to get the ion in the right place, but maybe CIG should consider to live with it when they buffed it to far and its better than the rest

      The game is fine. The ship, as it *currently* stands, is not. But it's all subject to change, so no use getting wrapped around the axle.
