Gameplay / Merc vs Gat
« on: May 05, 2013, 01:41:26 pm »
hey guys. I'm relatively new to the forums and the game, but I've managed to pick up Captain skill quite quickly. 
My question is this, on a Spire, is a Merc or Gat more effective in the upper left slot? My logic is that usually that gunner is an Engie that's repairing things like the balloon and such. Thus, I want that person to do fast DPS and then either buff or repair. The Gat requires continuous usage to get the most out of it. Like others, I'm thinking about going either Hwacha or Heavy Flak to do health damage after taking down the armor.
Thoughts?
We did try a Carronade build and oddly it was rather effective. Just kept popping the balloon and the continuous damage on the balloon hitbox and hull destroyed most ships.
