These are amazing mission ships as you can loot while killing without losing any firepower. No more warping out and back with a cargo ship for loot. This will speed up missions a lot.
T2 ammo is also more worth it. Costs for using T2 ammo are cut in half. T2 ammo draw backs also cut in half. Well more as with the web bonus its counters the tracking drawbacks of the ammo..
At first I wasnÆt to keen on he new ship as the damage output is the same as my Hyper. But the more I think about it the more I like the ship. Only can I swap the amour bonus for a 5% shield recharge bonus? DidnÆt think so.
As a gallante railgun using passive tanker I find my self with half the cap usage from turrets which means more SPRÆs, less PDSÆs so a better tank.

ôKronos ? No, thanks, Dominix is better.ö From what I can see the Kronos will do more DPS, tank better and loots faster. How is the domi better for PvE?
There is also the psychology bit. Although 4 turrets are not better then 8 thereÆs something nice about seeing big damage numbers from 4 turrets. If you use T2 ammo as well your cutting down ammo cost from what 1 mill to 500k per mission? Something like that.

Shame I cannot get onto the test server as I want to try this. If I am right Kronos web bonus means it can use the best T2 damage ammo with tracking penalties and the web completely gets rid of the tracking penalty at close range massively boosting your dps output. You can hit just as well at long range due to the tracking bonus on the ship. If this works like I think I plan to move over to T2 ammo only. Right now itÆs a little to costly for missions but with the new ships its going be cost effective.
Now add on the long range tractor beams and cargo space and you can look far faster without wrapping out. I can see missions going much faster.

I normally have 4 tracking computers and the ships bonus so I hit outside of web range fine with railguns 425mm T2. When I start to miss thats when they are in web range. Thats with T1 ammo not sure if T2 will work the same with its lower tracking. Passive shield tanking guide click here |
