Gunnery for dummies v1.3.2 - A beginner's guide to the common weaponry.
N-Sunderland:
I can't speak for Echo, but I suppose his reasoning is similar to mine.
Greased mortar deals much, much (much) more DPS than burst. In fact, a buffed mortar with greased can kill a Galleon in three seconds. While the AoE increase from burst is nice, it slows down the fire rate, and therefore is less beneficial for outright killing than greased.
naufrago:
You mentioned on the flare gun that heavy reduces its velocity, but heavy doesn't have the effect anymore. You can hit out to the max range of 750m with it.
Also, while i was poking around some of the data files, i discovered that the flare gun has a jitter of 5 degrees. For comparison, light flak has a jitter of 4 and gatling has 3.5.

The confusion, indeed, by the time I reached that part for some reason I forgot Heavy clip doesn't reduce projectile speed anymore. Sunderland if you can take that part out I would be grateful. And yes it has roughly the same random spread as the Light Flak, I think I mentioned it.
Arona:
As a new player, I appreciate your guide very much! I've found it extremely helpful as I try to understand all the factors that come into play with the guns. I've spent hours in the sandbox with your guide, trying out the various guns and ammo combinations. One question, though. After the 1.3 update, the GoIO website (http://gunsoficarus.com/gameplay/weapons/) shows that the Artemis has a damage type of Explosive and an AoE of Explosive, while your guide says the AoE is shatter. Didn't it change to Explosive with the update, or is the website incorrect? Thanks again for taking the time to make the guide!
N-Sunderland:
The gun stats table got completely messed up in 1.3. Ignore it, most of those stats are completely wrong. The Artemis is explosive-shatter.
