[AP]Weapon Loadout Questions
So I have the PHQ and Hub finished already and have a nice little trade empire setup, now getting around to defending said empire with sets of patrolling ships. My issue is which types of weapons would be better to give to a fleet of M3+s (I'm thinking of using the Eclipse or Notus in wings of at least 5)? Going to fit them with all the normal upgrades but as far as weapons goes I'm still a tad unsure. Would Enegry Bolt Chainguns be better or HEPTs? These ships would be used 99% OOS and in Teladi space to protect my silicon transfer ships from rampant piracy. Xenon wont be much of an issues with where my ships travel but i tend to loose quite a few transports to pirate Novas and such. Also have a Megalodon that I'm using as a semi permanent player ship, have it outfitted with Flak arrays, Cluster Flaks and Gauss Cannons, would this be considered a decent outfit?
EBC's are quite good, tho from recent posts of mine I think it would be good to mix some up like
group1 HEPTS + full Missiles
groupe2 EBC+ full ammo
EDIT:
OOS I'm not too experienced on but I think from what I'v read that HEPTS would be better
as for player ship I'll always recommend the Griffon Sentinel CFA/FFA/CIG/IPG and have it swap out the weapons automatically
Iv been killing Q's Tyr's Odins, Kayoto's ..well everything except an I so far (aint met one yet)
+ I have found a few tunings so im 200+M/s
EDIT 2: Also in OOS if an enemy ship has flack it will AOE your fighters OOS from now in AP ships with turrets can target multiple targets ! not just all turrets on 1 target like before (If im wrong please correct me)

have a corvette lead the way, and then have fighters swarm around it with the " attack closest enemy of... " pirates will usually try to take out the 'vette first.(I'm thinking of using the Eclipse or Notus in wings of at least 5)?
HEPT.Would Enegry Bolt Chainguns be better or HEPTs?
IMO: replace frontal GC with IC. and put PPC in the back slot.with Flak arrays, Cluster Flaks and Gauss Cannons, would this be considered a decent outfit?
Just saying it forward: I give everyone 2 posts to make good, in context posts(proper english, as always, is optional). After that I'm ignoring what you have to say in that thread that's directed to what we previously were talking about.
