Hi!
Looking at crystals and I see that faction crystals are in my ISK reach.
But I'm concerned about them breaking, I know T2 crystals can break a fair bit..
But what about faction crystals?
Currently I use bog standard crystals and I've never had one break.

I think faction ones break faster than tech 2, but I'm not sure
I Definately know they do break though.

Faction ones last 4000 shots, T2 lasts 1000. -- Proud member of the [23].

Thanks for the replies!
Assuming I fire every 4 seconds, 6 lasers, that's 1.5 shots per second.
Which roughly works out at a crystal lasting me 45 minutes of firing.
Let's assume that I do a mission for 150K ISK every 15 minutes, meaning 3 missions per crystal. But since I'm maybe firing half the time, that's 6 missions per crystal. That's 900K per crystal.
Unfortunatly that puts them out of my range at the moment, which is a shame. I've seen crystals go for as cheap as 500K, but that's still half of what I earn for that amount of time. Add to that the hassle of getting hold of the crystals, they would appear to be 'special ammo' for use in difficult missions or PvP.
Well, that answers my questions on faction crystals - a little dissappointed though, would have liked to have used them.

I dont know the stats for faction crystals but if the damage is 0.01% and the chance of being damaged is 1% per shot then the T2 crystal should statistically break after 10.000 shots.
If my calculations are not completely off (wich they may be) faction crystals breaking after 4000 shots at 1% chance of taking damage per shot would leave the damage taken if damaged at 0.025% just as a reference.

Dont how they break been using same crystals in lasers for olmost 3 months doing every day missons on Apoc lev3- lev4 missions there is a lot of shooting and none break so far , so i assume break on crystals may happend may not there metter of luck also ..? i just cant explaine why mine still in work adn shooting :) Diplomacy it art of saing "good dogy" until you can find a big rock. |

They are off.
"1%" actually means 1.00 = 100%.
"0.0001%" actually means 0.0001 = 0.01%.
The display bug causes people to have bad math. If the numbers were correct, it would be 100,000 shots for T2, and 400,000 for faction. -- Proud member of the [23].
