Missile guide (page 3 of 8)
Disruptor missile
Created by the Yaki, the Disruptor missile is a great for hunting down small ships such as M5's. This missile can not be brought, however it can be dropped when a NPC ship is killed.
Speed | 515 m/s | Lifetime | 78 secs |
Damage | 6,000 | Radius | 1m |
Price | 3.4k cr | Range | 40km |
Warhead | Single | Tracking | Yes |
Dragonfly missile
The Dragonfly missile is a great M4 destroyer, because of speed and damage. I would not recommend for M5's because they could easily out run the missile. This is fairly standard type of missile, fire and forget.
Speed | 250 m/s | Lifetime | 75 secs |
Damage | 5,000 | Radius | 20m |
Price | 1k cr | Range | 18.8km |
Warhead | Single | Tracking | Yes/Prox |
Firefly missile
The Firefly missile is a very fast dumbfire missile that deals a small amount of damage. It is near impossible to land a hit on small targets, and on larger ships its damage is minimum. The only use I can think of is to arggo capital ships.
Speed | 576 m/s | Lifetime | 43 secs |
Damage | 1,500 | Radius | 4m |
Price | 224 cr | Range | 24.7km |
Warhead | Single | Tracking | No, Dumbfire |
Firelance missile
Yet another dumb-fire missile: as always this limits its usefulness massively, because the missile will not track a target. This missile has a high top-speed and a fairly good damage, although without tracking I'm not sure what you use it for.
Speed | 500 m/s | Lifetime | 100 secs |
Damage | 4,500 | Radius | 150m |
Price | 2.7k cr | Range | 50km |
Warhead | Single | Tracking | No, Dumfire |
Firestorm Torpedo
This Torpedo is a slow moving/turning Torpedo that delivers massive damage. Whilst its initial damage is very good agaisnt M7/M2/M1 it also does radius damage. This means if you launch one at a M7, it could take out all the supporting M6's as well. However being a Torpedo, often means you need to hit a position without missile defence (like the front).
Speed | 165 m/s | Lifetime | 600 secs |
Damage | 1,000,000 | Radius | 1km |
Price | 80.1k cr | Range | 99km |
Warhead | Torpedo | Tracking | Yes |
