SakashiroAs far as I know, reverb cascade damage bypasses MRPs.

Yes, but only to shield not to other modules. The question is how long your drives and PP will last without shield on a shield tank.

And thermal conduit is a thing to boost dmg, but it comes with the cost of overall damage to modules which can be negated by MRPs.

btw. is someone familiar with the Intimidator ? the range should be 7m (with greater range 11m) having a nice scattering, but when you aim it´s bundled to a single shot and the range is much more greater. Is this the normal behavior for this weapon or couse i put higher accuracy on it ? and why is the range so short specified but u can shoot much further.. have to test out how much it is.. have the Intimidator not so long in use.. tested it last night.. one shot on a shielded npc and he´s gone.. much funny moments

It is poorly implemented shotgun idea which engineering mods complete bugs out. If you want to have full advantage of this - put scope on it.

It looks like Frontier have no plans to fix it.

As far as I have been able to tell, "effective range" is when damage falloff begins. Plasma shots can go out to 200m but the damage will be negligible. For the Intimidator it counts as many smaller projectiles so if you are close, you can pull the trigger 1 time and it will eat their shields and most/all of their health since it can bypass the shieldgate. It does (should) have a tighter grouping when ADS but beyond about 20m the scatter is unreliable, at least in my experience.

yes the range is realy far, i tested it again.. the scattering is strange, my shots going the full distance like one bullit or better a bullit ball.. i made a video..


but sometimes it seems the scattering affecting on shorter distance ? crazy

Oh I see. I've never had that before. I haven't used the Intimidator in a long time so maybe it is an introduced bug in the last 6 months?

and its very strong, even on level 4, one shot and the (shielded) enemy is gone.. near or distance, no difference
update: some targets need a second shot, or a little final nudge, they are half past dead but still alive

another video - proof that npc´s can fly without jetpack

Supposedly it's not just putting the Scope on but you need a certain Mod on the weapon, and a SRV on the ground. The Spread is going to reduce itself when entering / leaving the SRV. Bit much for just that little Exploit, considering you need to redo it everytime you wanna fight apparently.

No need to do some mumbo-jumbo... Scope reduces pallets spread. Something you can never achieve on actual shotgun by adding optics. Scope should not reduce spread cone.

A call to every CMDR for the current event

A brief intro:

Elite, from Latin Eligere... To Choose.

You have an extremely important choice to do during this Community Goal.

I invite you all NOT to support the Anti-Xeno pact.

The real enemy resides within the human territory. The real enemy is human.

Thargoids were simply defending themselves because first of all, we provoked and threatened them.

Humans, CMDRs, please, don't stay on the surface of things.
A future possible alliance with Thargoids may prove extremely helpful.

Bill Turner and the Turner family knows.... That for those who chose not to fight Thargoids, there are way more benefits than.... weapons to kill Thargoids.

To see what few have seen, you have to do what few people do.


MAKE THE UNEXPECTED HAPPEN!! SHOW THE GALAXY WE HAVE THE POWER OF CHOICE!!

Chose to go against the ones who control us. Stop being effects... start being causes!!

Cause the creators of this universe the need to improvise because they already know what the mass choses..

Today, you can chose!! And maybe one day , you will be chosen and really taste the meaning of the word ELITE.


Stop killing Thargoids. The enemy is within.

Um, No.
The Thargoids have never shown any interest in negotiation let alone forming an alliance,
They harvest us every chance they get to do whatever unspeakable things they might find amusing,
There are numerous examples of them annihilating peaceful settlements/Megaships/Starports not even doing Guardian research,
They stink like piss. You really want that all over the place or should the galaxy be clean and tidy?
