  • Today we are taking our Crusader Ares Ion / Inferno Star Fighter and we are going to upgrade it completely. From Shields to size 5 torpedoes. If you are new player or you struggle to upgrade your ship, this is the tutorial for you.
    Join me and lets have fun Citizens.
    If you planning to play Star Citizen for the first time you can use my code: STAR-WN52-45MV to get extra 5000 UEC in game, which is very helpful in the beginning of Star Citizen.

    When it comes to upgrading your missle sitze you should keep in mind that this can result in a lower potential damage of your missles. For better explaining i will use a HammerHead and the Ares Ion as examples...
    In stock it comes with 32xS3 missles: 16x Arrester III and 16x Viper III. Arrester deals 2526dmg per missle and the Viper deals 3219 dmg per missle = 91933 potential damage in total. If you upgrade to S5 missles/Torpedos the HH fields 8xS5 Scimitar V's missles. 16383 damage per missle results in = 131060 potential damage. So far so good.
    Ares Ion. Stock 13xS3 Arresters III (with locked Rack. Sitze is fix). And 2 racks with 4xS3 Viper III each. Total Potential damage = 56072.
    Upgrading both Viper racks to S5 Skimitars will result in 63082 potential damage. The damage increase isnt that high like it is for the HH.
    For ships with a Larve amount of missles this works out but for smaller ships with limited racks or missle capacity its a different story. Here it could be better to downgrade the missle sitze. Example for the Ares Ion:
    If you down Grade the S3 Viper racks to S2 Rattlers II's ( 4070 damage per missle ) you reach a potential missles damage of 95437 damage. What is significantly higher then with the S5 missles.
    The rule is: downgrading doubles your amount of missles from size to size and upgrading halves your amount of missles!!!
    So keep in mind. For considering your loadout decide what you like more or what is better suited for what you want to do ingame.
    Bigger missles can blow up an ship in one salvo. 2 Scimitar V are enough for Valkyries, Vanguards and Hurricanes. Same with 4 S3 missles. But if you maybe get yourself into a battle with more enemys ( random PvP or a friend need fast help) you maybe want to have more lower size missles to fight longer or dont need to restock after every mission and also be able to deal more missle damage in total. Thats Up to you. Hope i could help a bit with the infos. Fly safe Out there ..

      @@infinitespace239 the Ares has a special rack yes. But the others you can change. Offers a bit variety and you have still the 12xS3 as back up for a bigger Impact. I personally Like the Rattlers II and use them as main ordonance in every ship cause the cluster spread is just nice to watch and If you combine sub-section targeting like engines turrets and then look on each cluster missle will Look in tobthat sub-section. Plus Cluster missles are a pain to counter cause 4 missles will turn into 32 and are hard to flair/decoy away.Also a good to know every missles locks in to sub-sections like thrusters, engines,turrets etc.

It doesnt feels right cause of arming time lock on time and then the time Till they eventually hit after firing. But i got your point. But its the Same with all Weapons with some knowledge you can use them properly. In my case its means use a Constelation Andromeda and pepper the enemys with missles xD

  • @eldarionmarchombre4568
    @eldarionmarchombre4568 6 месяцев назад

    To be known, currently missiles are bugged and their explosion is passing through shields (expected) AND hull (unexpected). That's the explosion which can damage components and even kill the pilot.
    Also, there is another bug with EM missiles which can be really hard or even impossible to decoy (or noise) away.
    Combining both bugs together, make these missiles perfect for a bug exploit.

    The EM missiles track EM signatures they dont do EM damage. The only difference is the tracking method. Infrared goes after heat and is lost via flares. EM goes after EM signatures and is lost via chaff. Most ships have less chaff on them so in pvp em missiles are better but base damage infrared is better and large targets have high heat and em signatures so either type works

    • @patrickcrane6137
      @patrickcrane6137 24 дня назад

      A post I found on reddit describes the differences in tracking styles well
      EM offers the overall fastest lock-on, though with somewhat unreliable tracking.
      Reason is that planet surfaces have significant IR background, while the asteroid belts have high Cross-section background noises. EM noises are present in gas clouds around Lagrange, where no PvE targets would spawn.
      Cross-section offer the most reliable tracking, especially against larger ships.
      Cross-section signatures (for the purpose of missiles) do not fluctuate depending on what the other ship is doing, and is least affected by decoys. It may take a while to lock, but once locked it bites on and doesn’t let go.
      IR tend to perform not as well in lock-time and tracking, but has the only cluster missile currently available in the form of Rattler II (size 2). It has theoretically higher damage than any other size 2, if all the mini warheads land.

    Went Ramparts for shields, heard were better for distortion, and might go stealth coolers on the Ion too.

    • @milk697
      @milk697 6 месяцев назад

      Cross section, infrared and electromagnetic are just the method they use to track targets. Splash damage is what damages components, just like with ship guns such as the C-788. Missiles differ from each other in more ways than the tracking type (for example; rattlers are a cluster munition, splitting into multiple smaller projectiles before impact) and I believe some have splash damage while others don't.

    • @Vision1100
      @Vision1100 6 месяцев назад +1

      You maybe disable the ships cause you damaged the powerplant with the missles. Cause missles arent blocked by shields anymore cause they count as ballistics. Cross, Ir and EM is the way they lock on onto the target and how fast they do it and also what kind of counter messures you need to break the Look on. Noise will break EM look on. Decoy for IR and for cross im Not Sure yet. Sometimes evasive maneuvers are enough.

      @drakeangelheart 6 месяцев назад +1

      @@Vision1100 For cross-section you need to break LOS, that breaks the lock. And you are totally correct, currently there is no such thing as a EMP missile in game. IR/EM/CS refers only to the tracking method the missile uses. However lore-wise the Vanguard Sentinel was supposed to have some e-warfare missiles - those might be something like an EMP missile if they get added one day.
