Poncho leone	Posted - 2006.03.29 02:54:00 - [1] I want to know what would be quicker for killing an enemy. The 125mm Railgun has a Faster shot than the 150mm Railgun but the 150 has a higher damage rate than the 125, do these cancel the each other out when you are working out the time it takes to kill somthing? Poncho
jbob2000	Posted - 2006.03.29 02:56:00 - [2] The 125mm tracks faster.
Poncho leone	Posted - 2006.03.29 02:59:00 - [3] Ok so the 125 Tracks faster, are you saying that 125 and 150 Kill at the same rate and the only dfference is there range and track speed?
Alzion	Posted - 2006.03.29 03:13:00 - [4] All the stats for the weapons are in the item database. 125mm Railgun: 2x damage mod, 3.25s rate of fire 2/3.25 = .615 * (ammo damage) = damage per second ---------------------------------------------------- 150mm Railgun: 2.75 damage mod, 4.25s rate of fire 2.75/4.25 = .647 * (ammo damage) = damage per second ------------------------------------- (.647-.615)/.615 = .052 150mm will give you a 5.2% increase in base damage per second over the 125mm. --------------------------------------------- I hear Linux can cure cancer and raise your sperm count. - Dionysus Davinci
Poncho leone	Posted - 2006.03.29 03:17:00 - [5] Thankyou very much Alzion. Much Apreciated, Poncho
Nuri Aderynn	Posted - 2006.03.29 03:44:00 - [6] But do those calculations include reload times? I'm pretty sure that over time the DPS drops even further because the 150mm has to reload more often. So unless you need the range of the 150s the 125s are better thanks to easier fitting and tracking.
Nova Incantus	Posted - 2006.03.29 03:47:00 - [7] I like the 125mms they're a good long range all purpose rail gun, the way I think about it is the 150mm rails are larger and deal more damage but the cost of that is speed. If a target gets in close 150mms wont be as effective at putting the target down than as say a 75mm its a bit of a trade off really, hope that helps ---------------------- If you build it, they will come and attack it.

Hllaxiu	Posted - 2006.03.29 04:01:00 - [8] Originally by: Nuri Aderynn But do those calculations include reload times? I'm pretty sure that over time the DPS drops even further because the 150mm has to reload more often. So unless you need the range of the 150s the 125s are better thanks to easier fitting and tracking. The 150mm railgun gets about 127.5 seconds of firing assuming rapid fire 5... I'd say that it doesn't really have that big of an effect on dps, even in agent missions/npcing (you reload when closing range between groups). --- Our greatest glory is not in never failing, but in rising up every time we fail. - Emerson
HippoKing	Posted - 2006.03.29 07:36:00 - [9] on a harpy, 125s and 2 damage mods (possible due to lower fitting) are better than 150mms with one damage mod and one tracking mod. the 125s have much lower range, but better damage and tracking (even with a tracking mod) sigs of the 23/24/25 hijack just as well -eris yarrrr, i shall retake my sig -HippoKing Not a chance, our 1337 sig haXx0r sk1llz are too powerful! - Wrangler Ho-Ho-Hooooooo, Merry Saturday!11 - Immy Yo ho ho and a bottle of BReeEEEEeee.... - Jacques ARRRRRRchambault Stop spamming with "QFT" >:\|. - Teblin
Hamatitio	Posted - 2006.03.29 08:29:00 - [10] 125's are nice ;D --- I Post on the forums for Fate. Im cool. Industrialists wanted
Twilight Moon	Posted - 2006.03.29 09:56:00 - [11] Originally by: Alzion All the stats for the weapons are in the item database. 125mm Railgun: 2x damage mod, 3.25s rate of fire 2/3.25 = .615 * (ammo damage) = damage per second ---------------------------------------------------- 150mm Railgun: 2.75 damage mod, 4.25s rate of fire 2.75/4.25 = .647 * (ammo damage) = damage per second ------------------------------------- (.647-.615)/.615 = .052 150mm will give you a 5.2% increase in base damage per second over the 125mm. You've forgotten about reload times, and the fact that 150mm's will probably hit less due to poorer tracking. They will also have less "quility" hits due to the lower tracking.
migwar	Posted - 2006.03.29 10:07:00 - [12] depend what enemy for general NPC'ing i prefer 125mm I use 150mm on my sniping harpy for longer range, with trackin comps and damage mods, im always allinged so if anything gets close i warp.
Poncho leone	Posted - 2006.03.29 11:39:00 - [13] What about the distance thing, I think you are better to be using 150's because you can get a furthur range than the enemy (If you can fly resonable fast). 150's aren't a huge DPS difference to the 125's so if you can keep out of gun range using 150's then that is a huge bonus. Am I correct?
Kadrush	Posted - 2006.03.29 11:49:00 - [14] Dont forget about the range
Poncho leone	Posted - 2006.03.29 20:59:00 - [15] How you mean don't forget about the range?
Pang Grohl	Posted - 2006.03.30 00:04:00 - [16] It depends on what you're hunting. The 150's will give you better range & you can fit heavier ammo to increase DPS even more. I use them to kill cruisers & destroyers. The 125's use less energy & allow you to fit other high PG modules. These are primo on frigates. In a Catalyst, 8 125's will fit where only 6 150's fit while allowing other systems like AB & damage or traking mods. Forum: A place where ideas come to prove their worth. Portraits rock!

The only things I need the web for are things that even 125s will have a hard time hitting. Originally by: Istvaan Shogaatsu I'm probably one of the biggest Bush fanboys in Eve...
