| Summary | 0022645: MLRS corvettes are weapon type Splash, but MLRS turrets are Fusion | ||||
| Description | What's up with that? | ||||

I thought that was on purpose to split the turrets among more technologies. Otherwise Fusion has zero turret. I always believed the other reason was that they have a bonus against hull below a certain health. Getting a damage bonus at % health is a fusion thing too, so that made sense. |

It may have been, long ago when they were originally set up in the initial Fleets update. Currently the reason I haven't changed it is because Splash already has 3 Turrets. If I was to put it in there, I think I would possibly move Beam Cannons into Fusion instead. In my mind, "splash damage" doesn't tend to include piercing beams, and is more for explosions. I've always had a bit of doubt about how much sense that makes in general to others, though. if there's no issues raised by anyone, I'll swap it about. |

Fusion's thing is "anti forcefield and anti structure", right? Maybe plasma turrets should be fusion. |
|
|
...oh, but then all plasma weapons would have to be fusion and that doesn't really work either. Sorry. I'm tired. |
|
|
in my game I set MLRS to splash and beam cannons to fusion |
|
|
My two cents: Fusion doesn't need a turret because station-keeping assault frigates are a thing and fusion is considered strong as is. ...I'm not sure I trust my judgment here though. |

Do MRLS weapons actually do splash damage? If not, they really shouldn't be Splash type. |
