Who still uses a heavy battery in combat? I've found that it's mostly useless with my weapon setup and I would like to know if there is an actual use for it. (neut III's)

I mean the 200 more energy goes away pretty quick. Also on the box on the inside left I see the energy set as 1000.... :) What's that about? Vendetta Test maybe? Wonder if we could get batteries like that again.....

If you mean fast charge batteries, see trade level 4 (or 2 in corvus)

The only thing to change since alpha and beta is engines, and i sooo wish they would bring back the old engine system... I didnt Pvp in alpha, unless i had to, or was in the mood, i was a trader, and i still prefered the old setup, but the engine tweaks and such that have been talked about will possibly fix this....

/me pirates 20000 everybody (in my dreams)

[Edit]

What exactly do you want us to vote for?

180 <-- fast charge 200 <-- fast charge drains.

That 1000 eu battery is the treasured NiCad battery... also known as the Dev Battery. Normal players can't get it.

I think he meant fast charge vs. heavy battery.

for me fc for most purposes.. heavy for plasma dev hog.

The recharge of the FC will support a better average DPS than the heavy battery for all weapons unless the encounters last less than a few seconds with relative long pauses in between.

The advantage of heavy batteries instead of FC is reserved for extremely special circumstances (if you must fire 4 rails at once for instance).

I much prefer the heavy batt. The FC charges faster, but not THAT much faster, and
the lower capacity makes it pretty useless for energy weapons.

oops sorry I was rather vague. Also I meant 300 energy diff not 200. Okay I just wanted to know who uses heavy batt vs fast charge. And if heavy over fast charge then what weap set up. That's all.

Anyone have the new FC batt? (stats please?)
