VRO weapons - best choices?

[Hangar181]

I know the encyclopaedia exists but that is painful to use and simply don’t have time to try out each weapon. What I’m after is advice for key scenarios

Player ship: corvette best all round front weapon

Missiles: biggest bang for taking out turrets that won’t get shot down

Capital ships: best anti fighter turrets that even the AI can use

Fighters: best anti capital ship loadout

Player ship corvette: best ant capital weapon

I realise some of this will boil down to personal choice but a few ideas is a better start than trying out a zillion. Thanks in advance

Anyone?

Not playing VRO at the moment - but if I'm playing VRO I'm mostly picking weapons by their sound (seriously) and ROF. Most of the time I end up using these on my capital ships (in that order):

• Gauss Turret
• Rapid Kinetic Turret
• Heavy Mass Driver Turret
• Annihilator Turret

I don't bother with front mounted destroyer weapons as their ROF / efficiency is awful.

For M turrets I mostly use (in that order)

• Barrage Turret
• Light Meson Turret
• Dual Pulse Turret

If I ever use S ships in combat (not adviced in VRO) I install some gatling-like weapon.

At the end I'm there for the show. And winning is done by just adding more ships

Cheers, appreciate the advice!
