This equation can look a bit intimidating at first. But it is central to the way turrets deal damage, because it calculates each turret's chance to hit its target, so ~~we must study~~ it ~~to learn more about how to effectivly deal damage with turrets~~. In the rest of this article this equation will be poked, prodded and picked apart until all its secrets are belong to us. First of all: by looking at the different variables in the equation above, we can see that many of them are fixed or require certain modules to manipulate, e.g signature radius. In an unfitted ship, the only variables that a pilot have any control over are range to target and transversal speed. All the other variables can only be manipulated by fitting in a certain way or by activating certain fitted modules. Let's look a little closer at the equation and see what more we can learn.
