Weapon types

vorlon31

By far the most fun weapon I've used in Jumpgate Classic is plasma, its simply good fun even if its considered hard to learn (or maybe because) and I for one hope this substance as a weapon source follows through into Jumpgate Evolution.

What's your fav weapon type?

Larommi

I always liked the Barraks.

I was an ammo whore. No matter what I could never get down the energy weapons. No matter how many times I died to them I could not get used to them.

The other way around for them. I've started out using Thorns on a 'Phoon, and could not get used to anything else no matter what, energy weapons all the way, no matter which. I don't really know why, but I do know that I detested running out of ammunition.

Yeah running out sucked

GrimGriz

The thief was my favorite, though it needed to fit on smaller faster ships and have better range. It sure was a blast in the sim though.

Wild_Bill

Flails>Hitman>Barraks in that order. I like the ability to "reach out and touch" someone.

dahalb

Personally i found them to be a tool... the right tool for the right job kind of thing. Plasma was fun sure, but my fav's were Flails/HM/Racks and Ions or IJ's if i could get em.

Nafcon

At first I used Hitman/Barrak but later i realized that Thorns were more flexible in PvP, but I haven't mastered the Injustice oder the Shark

Poseidon

Straker/Cobra/Mortar mounted on Gust. You can never have enough machine gun rounds... and it's always fun to fire.

Thats my MO too. Also I developed a sort of gunship mentality to fluxing. going home with unspent rounds (in a pod or otherwise) is almost sort of a fail.

Elmdor

Ions 4 life.

Scorch

I always loved the Straker.
