About Directional Weapons
Directional Weapons are good mid ranged weapons with mid damage and low He3 usage. They can eventually be upgraded to do piercing damage, hitting all ships vertically.
- Shooting Range: 2 - 5 (Maximum of 2 - 6 with research.)
- Cooldown: 1 (Rounds needed before next use)
- Attack power in a round: Low - Mid
- He3 Consumption: Low
- Attribute: Magnetic/Heat
- Piercing Damage (researched): All ships in the same vertical row as the target will suffer piercing damage. (Piercing amount can be increased by research.)
- Cannot be blocked or Intercepted
The shooting range of 2 – 5 (2 - 6 with research) allows for a wide range of uses in either close combat or longer range combat. After some development, it will decrease target’s hit rate, attack power, speed and more. Directional Science research can be improved to enhance the stats of these weapons.
Piercing damage - After some research, piercing damage on other targets will rise to 40% of attack power. What’s more, it has the lowest He3 consumption of all weapons, making it a good choice for challenging instances.
Like Ballistic Weapons, these start with low attack power. To enhance their attack power, you must equip several of them, making it hard to defeat target's with great defense. Weapon layering can be strategically used to limit the amount of He3 used per round or to receive Attack Power and Speed reduction to the enemy each round; adding the Highest attack/Number first then smaller weapons might allow Lasers to fire each round. For Lasers you should always consider layering. Mixing diffrent weapon types isn't recommended with lasers.
Directional Weapon Stats
The following table is a list of all Directional Weapons, their base attributes and the base cost per module installed on ships. Certain types of research can enhance their damage, range, cost, and he3 usage. For a comprehensive list of ALL weaponry and their stats go to the Composite Weapons Table.
