Anti noob habit tips on tip box
Daft Loon:
The pointless math:
By the time a greased gatling would have reloaded burst will have fired 87/98 shots doing 217.5 damage to hull (I read the wrong number to start, makes no difference though)
A full greased clip does 196 damage
By the time the burst gatling fires its last shots doing 245 total the greased gatling fires another 20 shots doing 236 damage and passing the burst gatling 5 shots (0.375s) later.
So burst is marginally better in a few very specific situations timing wise that can't be predicted beforehand. It might plausibly be worth loading if you have it against a junker or galleon.

Well... sorta... however, once you account for repair cycles, Burst simply isn't worth it. You'd be better off with normal. (Or greased)
Oh, and in case you don't have it yet

Exactly that what makes burst semi-decent load. Though I hear in such situations heatsink is much better, but still.. Majority of cases, use dem greaseds.
No, I am not teaching anyone to use burst even as normal ammo replacement, goodness gracious, no. Each ammo has their places and main guns after all!
Anywho, actual useful tips to mingle with the humorous ones sounds good. Keep 'em coming!
