Is there any reason to train for HAM launcher II when Arbalest (Tier 1) seem to have same ROF and capacity and less pg/cpu need than the tier 2 launchers?
The heavy missile launcher II atleast has more capacity than the tier 1 launchers.

Edited by: Complex Potential on 27/10/2007 10:48:27 As with all turrets and launchers the best named usually matches the T2 version in terms of RoF and damage. However, the T2 versions have two advantages...
1) They can use T2 ammo
2) They get a bonus to the specialism skill. If you train the spacialism skill to L4 I'm betting the T2 will be around 8% faster on RoF than best named.

Go for t2's, because training the specialization skill gives you an additional 2%(???)bonus to firingrate per level. ========================= DONT REMOVE MY SIGGIES!!! ================ |

HAM II can also use T2 ammo, for either more damage or more range.

Did anyone mention that T2 HAM launchers can use T2 HAMs?

Yeah we did. The words 'T2 ammo' kinda covers this.

Edited by: Acoco Osiris on 27/10/2007 11:21:59 I'd codified the advantages of T2 weapons in another post. Here we go again.
Pros of Best Named
*Lower skill reqs *Lower cap use (where applicable) *Easier to fit
Pros of T2
*Launchers have more capacity (I'd said capacitor-wouldn't we all love our launchers to have capacitor?) *Benefit from the specialization skill (2%/level) *Can use T2 ammo (Javelin ammo is spectacularly useful in HAMs) *Quite often cheaper than best named *You'll be wanting those skill reqs someday anyways *Looks better on the killmail. Hopefully as the weapon used for the killshot, not as "item destroyed" ------------------------------ One more soldier off to war... And one Velator in my hangars. |

You're right. But actually it is said under secondary skill required section at the Heavy Missile Specialization skill that: 'Specialist training in the operation of advanced heavy missile launchers. 2% bonus per level to the rate of fire of modules requiring Heavy Missile Specialization.'
Actually its quite funny that the skill completely misses the word 'assault'.

This isn't the only confusing bonus description in Eve. After a while you begin to see the patterns.
