The only R8 destroyer I’ve seen in T5 is my own. And it still poses a great advantage over other ships. Though LRF’s and Guards usually take me out after a while. That and long-range engineers. Those eclipses are merciless.
I had someone in yesterday who had all 3 dessies + 1 R15 ship in his lineup. He managed to get top score of his team in the R8 dessie, yet some people still try and say that they are not OP lol. At least they lost the match
No, not the singularity cannon, singularity/gravitational generator (I have no idea how it is translated to English) - active module for destroyers. It creates black hole that pulls everything in, causing white damage directly to hull.
It causes kinetic damage… (Unless my screen has a colour-balance problem)
And I see the Photon Torpedo becoming a problem. “Reduces EM resistance by 30pts in 300m radius for 25 seconds. Stacks.”
Black Hole Generator AKA “Gravity Lens”:
“After 5 seconds it generates a black hole pulling in enemies within a radius of 2500m at 120m/s. Damages enemies’ hulls directly within 1250m for 1875 damage/second and when a ship is touching the event horizon(black part) deals 15000 damage/second.”
Frightening.
“Halo” System:
Type: Destroyer Main Weapon
Damage type: EM
“Fires a radiation shell that damages enemies within a 35m radius for 850 EM damage/second. Upon contact with an enemy or an obstacle, the shell explodes.”
The most peculiar part of this is that it does not have spread, making the Archon’s bonus half useless.
So I’m probably going to be making either the Sybil or the “round one”.
The Brave is useful now because of black holes, but that’s it.
