Tachyons are the weapon of choice it seems. 10 secs to take downs a ravens shields is a joke though.

Have you even toyed around with them or do you just believe what Jim Raynor says? I never saw you on the chaos server this past month while testing was going on. Tachyons were nerfed, not made better. Their falloff was cut in half, their tracking is much worse now and they use about 5% more cap per damage over time than they did previously. Yes they have a higher damage multiplier but their RoF was adjusted to compensate.
None of that matters. They are by far the best weapons. Even with hardners they hit for 200dmg and thats still quite hard. Any delay/lag and ur shields will be down before you know whats happining.

Tachyons do more damage to shields than armor and hull, that is why the damage is doing more at the beginning of a fight.
At least, that is how its SPOSED to be
Yeh but considering my bs main defence is in its shields my armour/hull wont last long. Tacheons are to strong. I would personaly like to see a reductions of 25-40 dmg. But untill next patch i will just swap ship and use them to

I you hit them. Guess what, large guns really really suck hitting something which is moving with 2 km/s.
Tried that setup against a tachyon apoc - he was able to make a little over 300 shield damage before I closed the 40 km distance (and -zero damage afterwards).
The key with this tactics is not to simply approach your target (because you won't *move* for it's guns then and be a sitting duck), but to move to a point ~ 1/4 screen left (or right,...) to them. Large guns will *not* be able to track you.
Little over 300dmg. You sure u can count, and anyway I will be putting a varaity of guns on my apoc. Thus as i will still kill u fast. As i said in the last post.
I wish more ppl would do this.
