Gameplay / Heavy Carronade
« on: April 20, 2013, 04:32:25 pm »
After a good long time running a heavy carronade on the goldfish (the only ship it's really viable on), I've come to determination that it's almost entirely useless. At the rate it fires and reloads, you need to be firing constantly to keep an enemy down. Now compare that to the small carronade, and you barely have a reason to take the heavy. The only thing the heavy carronade has is component damage but even then, you're a sitting target while you balloon lock. Why waste the slot when the light is just as good?
