In general, webs are more effective at increasing missiles damage to fast targets. But they don't do jack to a slow target.That is when you need target painters. That being said, TPs have much greater range. Saying they have NOTHING to do with traversal is pretty disingenuous.
Transversal is not velocity, you can have a target at 0m/s with 3k transversal, missiles have nothing to do with that stat. They only care about pure velocity. |

Sort of, webs have nothing to do with transversal. If you are at 0m/s and a ceptor is orbiting you very fast with double webs on you you will have very high transversal on that ceptor, and vice versa. But velocity in itself has also nothing to do with transversal, you can have 0 transversal while going 20km/s.

Quote:Transversal Velocity
Transversal velocity in EVE describes the speed at which an object moves perpendicular to you, i.e. its orbital velocity. In other words, it is a metric used to describe the sideways movement of you and an object relative to one another. To get an sense of what this means, below is a list of some examples.
A high transversal velocity occurs when:
Two ships orbit one another at the same speed in opposite directions (maximal transversal)
One ship orbits a stationary ship
One ship flies "north" and the other flies "east/west" with respect to one another
A low transversal velocity occurs when:
Two ships fly directly away or toward one another (zero transversal)
Two ships fly perfectly parallel to one another at the same speed (zero transversal)
One ship chases the other ship
The transversal velocity is computed by subtracting the two velocity vectors (i.e. both magnitude and direction) from one another, and then finding the length of the vector. This differs from angular velocity (below) in that it is not affected by the distance between both objects.
But if you are the ship at 0m/s webbing the ceptor will lower its transversal. So if you move at max speed and the other party moves at max speed webs will lower transversal simply because they reduce the velocity. |

You need 2 ships to have transversal, if you have a ship not moving and you web transversal wont change. If you have webs on moving ships webs can lower transversal.
Webs sort of reduce maximum possible transversal. |
