I took some missle skills so I have by default: Missle Launcher Ops Rank 3, and Rockets Rank 3
I finally got myself a Kestrel, a fine missle boat! But I think I'm pretty limited to certain missles, and I was told only heavies are good.
What is the range of light missles? Based on my set up, what kind of missles should I aquire?
Thank you. Do feel free to give me advice.

Edited by: Dark Jester on 13/06/2004 04:19:34 Missiles are going to be very different after the next patch (coming up this week iirc). You'll only be able to use rockets and light missiles on your frigate.
I suggest you have a look at this thread, it has a lot of info on the upcoming missile changes.

Edited by: Ishtari on 13/06/2004 04:36:00 Around 20 km range. But as stateed above next patch is going to change a lot about missiles. Also for a new player missiles are quite expensive to use in npc hunting. I would suggest getting some cheap launchers, civilian/small shield booster, 1mn afterburner and some overdrives. The trick with missile boats is to stay out of the enemy`s range if possible, you ll be hit by missiles but guns are usually the most deadly weapons. Some npc pirates drop quite a lot of launchers and missiles, so dont spend cash on named launchers.

do a show info on the missiles.
Flighttime * speed = max distance.
ex.
(no real info)missile flies for 20 seconds at 1000m/s.
20 * 1000 = 20000 = 20km max distance.
