non-Khaak ships using Kyon emitter

Post by cordeos » Fri, 10. Mar 06, 04:58

i was wondering if there any non-Khaak ships that can use Kyon emitter, they seem like good weapons but im having trouble capping a khaak ship.

I know the xenon p and the truelight seeker can mount kyons, but those aren't normally obtainable ships...

Xenon P lost that ability with 1.3 patch.

The Argon Military Transport can mount kyons on it's laser banks, and it's a buyable ship at Argon Prime, IIRC. Has pretty screwed up turret views though.

people install these mods and dont even realise what hte hell they are doing.

As far as i know only the Truelight seeker and the Khaak ships can mount kyons, and the truelight seeker is a plot ship, cant cap it or anything.
Its a lonely life being me...

QFT

The TLS is a fun ship because of its selection of weapons, but perhaps it is good that it cannot be used without mod/script (balance).

You should be able to mount any weapon you like on any ship you like. They have energy requirements that would already filter out putting big guns on small ships.

Not quite. The Kyons are not that "big". Besides, as long as the ship has energy for even one shot, the bigger gun is better. It is about energy efficiency. The energy consumed by one BHEPT shot could be used to shoot BIRE a long time, but the total damage from all those BIRE shots will be less than the damage from that single ball of High Energy Plasma. (BIRE is the worst energy weapon.)

The limitations are there to balance out different ships. Now you can argue whether NR or MR is "better".
