Tomorrow I will finally be able to fly the golem, now having watched quite a few youtube vids of players using the golem for lvl4 missions, I am intrigued why they always stack the missile launchers in the HUD.
Theres four missile launchers , and when you stack them, you can only fire one at a time, whats the point of having four launchers, if your only firing one at a time??

Grouped or stacked guns/launchers effectively add the damge output of the modules together. A golem with stacked launchers may look like it's only firing one torpedo but when that torpedo hits you find out that it's doing 4x the damage a single torpedo does.
Stacking weapons doesn't do anything to their damage output, it just makes module management much easier (and slightly reduces server load on CCPs end). |

The single torpedo animation I guess is the confusing part, thanks for clearing that up. |

This.
A Golem is a very high cost and high maintenance mission ship compared to others.
Just my opinion, but WTF do I know. |

Although perhaps somewhat inelegantly, the other posters are trying to tell you that you might be putting the cart in front of the horse. Its a very common problem in EVE that players can pilot a ship, but can't really pilot it. There's a good chance that you might come to regret laying out the ISK for a Marauder and I'd recommend you taking another look at it. You really don't need anything more than a Drake to successfully run LVL 4 missions. In fact I've never used any other ship except a Drake to run my LVL 4's in. And I use a Drake out in Null for ratting as well, though I'm going to start using a Tengu soon. If you feel you need something bigger than a Drake, I'd say look at a Raven if you are set on not using a Drake.
But which ever ship you choose, don't mistake being able to pilot it with being able to actually fly it. Make sure you learn and skill up those supporting skills. |
