It’s survival mode, pretty much everything is instant kill
Your wrong, If you can’t hit your target, it’s not instant kill. All projectile weapons (except for phaser) would have missed an interceptor from 4-5 K away doing a strafe turn at 543 ms. With aim assist on. You don’t believe me do a custom match and prove yourself wrong.

I think so Star conflict will be a Fractured Space Or Dreadnought clone.
I think star conflict brought in dessys because of fractured space and Dread. With the ideology why pay to fly big ships in dread or fractured when you can get them here for free . . . with grind of course. How they were introduced an balanced is debatable.

BTW: i dont see that laser as an easier weapon to hit any target, it lacks aim assist…and in mid/long ranges aim assist can really provide a huge advantage if the proyectile speed is fast enough. Basically its a dot vs the leading circle; the 2nd one is much bigger, thus easier to hit when the lead circle is bigger than the ship hitbox (and proy speed/dodging variables).
Honestly, First time I have seen you wrong. I normally always agree with you. Aim assist will only perfectly aim where the target path was when you fired. Thus, if you are 4-5K away with a gauss shot at 5000ms and the target turns like i did while going 545ms. Your gauss projectile will miss every time. As aim assist helps with the path the target was going. Thus, from range all the variables in this instance a laser would have a large advantage with the assumption that the player had good aim.

The max damage the destabilizing field does is aproximately 13883 thermal damage which is 3.87 times more than what plasma web does (with mk.4 weapon). I’m not saying it’s not OP but I’d just hate to see it get nerfed. :)) Also, your video shows 128 ping so the accuracy of the way you took damage might be off. I think the game’s engine does not take high ping well.
13883 thermal damage - you act as if its not a big deal!!! That’s most CovOps effective hit points … . normally their EHP is from 10K -15K depending on speed tank vs actual tank. The number 1 rule in a interceptor is don’t stop. If you do you die. Well with this weapon you see your hull go down with only a indicator to the top of your hud. Then you must stop your ship or you die in the hopes that you had 75% hull and shield before you got hit to survive the 5k-13k damage. 3.87 times more than plasma web, that’s a cov ops signature ability if a cov ops had that type of dps output people would lose their mind. But its a destroyer so its ok. Are you kidding me.
My ping. . . the games engine does take response time quite well. The laser alpha’d my hull and that’s why I died. Not because icmp return trip time.
Regardless of your feelings toward destroyers, You saw the video, you saw the players score.I think we can all agree that geting killed before you can get in range, getting killed that quickly facing an opponent with 400K ehp while you have 10K ehp and the fact that all of the destroyers weapons provide a crap ton more damage then a ship that’s designed to get in quickly kill and get out, which originally was designed for the highest damage output in the game for a short period is BROKEN !! Destroyers should not have pin point accuracy. . . destroyers shouldn’t be the do everything ship. You want to area denial take a dessy, You want to tank more than any ship in the game take a dessy. You want to provide the highest damage in the game take a dessy. And finally you want to have pin point strikes on interceptors from 5-9k away. Take a dessy. What is this ships weakness now. Your an ecm well you can’t get within 4K and you die. Your a gunship well your dps and tank cannot sustain damage from a dessy. You pop out from cover now there are instant hit weapons, as soon as you pop out your taking damage. Your a frigate . … well you never had a chance in the first place. Your an LRF. This thing is pin point accuracy up to 9k and has 400K ehp while you have 50-60K. The last remaining option is a dessy . . . well xxxx that’s not a counter. So much effort was put into dessys with no consideration to any other class except for premium and even that was mediocre.
