I just trained up to be able to use pulse tech 2's. That's great and all but I seem to miss so much. When i do hit, i do a good amount of damage. Without target painting, what skills can i train to improve this? (besides motion prediction or whatever)
Also I use the conflagaration s as the focus crsytal in the 2 gatling 2's. I keep my orbit at 2 km, and that keeps me right around 3.5. Is this the wrong range for those guns or do I need to be closer for better accuracy?
Thanks for any help.

Edited by: Slaveabuser on 19/03/2006 01:39:17 I cant remember from the top of my head but cant you answer your own question by righclick>show info>range?
edit : t2 crystals also give worse tracking.

Err, conflagaration crystals cut your tracking by half. Use multifrequency or gamma.

Conflag give worse tracking as their downside. Try with normal crystals.

Your problem obviously lies in the barn itself, FIRST: Make sure the barn is a standard 20x40 meters, paint it RED not YELLOW. IF you still have trouble hitting it, Maybe you should consider hireing an engineer to make a more effective barn. ---------------------------

ahh thankfully among all the comments i got the answer needed. Now in general, outside of poorly configured turrets, what is the best way to improve your skills in tracking?

you already have gunnery lvl 5 so the only other tracking skill is motion prediction. If that dosen't help you'll have to use tracking computers. --------------------------------------------- I hear Linux can cure cancer and raise your sperm count. - Dionysus Davinci

You can also use a webber to slow your target down and if it comes to it, slow your own ship down until you start hitting well.

thank you. I figured as much but thought there might be something else I was missing. I am currently using microwave crsytals as they offer the best range and damage mix. Have you guys had good experience with any other crsytal at range?

I thought gunnery bettered ROF not tracking speed of turrets. Isn't it only Motion Prediction that increases tracking speed?

erm. if your flying a t2 frigate use the closest range weapons..most damage..... considering the others wil give you like 2k more (really not a big difference) while you take a 50% damage hit.. ---------------------------

well ive noticed huge difference in my ability to hit targets that are smaller at distances farther away, and I hit targets way mroe when the target is big and im close. So for up close and personal I have use either gamma or multi, and for far I use either micro or x-ray.
Anyone see how I could be using something better. If it matters I am using a crusader. I orbit at a speed of about 754 ks, and my transversal is around 600+ on most targets. If it matters...
