Topic: T4 Gauss gun ammo capacity ...

I'll make this simple, though I am looking for a good explanation.

t3 (Accolon) :  50 rounds
t4 (Glipher)  :  50 rounds
--------------------------------------
                      0 difference

t3 (Midon)  :  60 rounds
t4 (Prompt)  :  20 rounds
--------------------------------------
                     40 difference

Why?  It even has a faster rof (rate of fire)

Re: T4 Gauss gun ammo capacity ...

because T4 has 1.5x the damage per shot, and even a shorter cooldown.

Is that damage multiplier the same for both?  I don't know how to tell, sorry, i'm new. 

I still don't see the problem with having a larger ammo capacity as of yet ...

Deminyon, balancing.

Re: T4 Gauss gun ammo capacity ...

That's it, I need a module that auto-feeds my guns or adds extra ammo capacity ... or another extension.

Re: T4 Gauss gun ammo capacity ...

its called fast reload extension

5 second or so reload on any module.

can you read that "the T4 gauss does one and a half times the damage of the T3 variant, with a faster cyclet time"
which translates into that thing has the power to one-shot mechs with the right combination.

It has only two penalties for that firepower - a smaller magazine and a very short range - the magazine is not an issue since you only need a few rounds to finish your target and then you can reload so fast that you lose i bit of one or two cycles.

Re: T4 Gauss gun ammo capacity ...

forgot, talking about PvE situation...

do you actually run gauss fits in PvP? i thought most the times you run EM guns anyway for the range due to AoE damage. At least that was something many complained about when AoE was implemented.

Re: T4 Gauss gun ammo capacity ...

I think Deminyon has a good point.  Balancing my arse.  Other t4 weapons get more ammo capacity, so don't give  that bs.

Have you ever fired a single medium weapon in this game?
