====Doomsday Devices==== | ====Doomsday Devices==== | ||
Doomsday devices are extremely powerful weapons mounted on Titans. They deal 2 million points of racial type damage to a single target while using up 50 thousand units of the racial isotope to do so. They also have several drawbacks such preventing the titan from using a warp or jump drive for ten minutes after using the doomsday. | Doomsday devices are extremely powerful weapons mounted on [[Titans]].

Short range hybrid turrets. They have the most DPS of any type of weapon in game but also the least effective range.

===Energy Turrets=== | ====Energy Turrets==== | ||
Energy turrets (lasers) are the weapons used primarily by the Amarr. They use frequency crystals as ammunition and deal EM and thermal damage. A special note to consider when fitting any ship is the ammunition usage. Lasers use crystals, which work differently than any other ammunition type. You can read more about it [[Turrets#Laser_Crystals|here]]. | Energy turrets (lasers) are the weapons used primarily by the Amarr.

Long range energy turrets. They have the highest damage potential and best tracking but the least effective range than other long-range weapon systems. They have the steepest fitting requirements of any weapon system, and will thus normally be fitted only on Amarr ships, although the smaller beam lasers are much easier to mount. | Long range energy turrets.

Rigs are permanent ship modifications that fit into the rigging slots of a ship. Once fit, they must be destroyed in order to be removed (unlike regular modules). Most rigs have some other drawback associated with them; these penalties are reduced by training more levels in the associated [[Skills:Rigging|rigging skill]]. | Rigs are permanent ship modifications that fit into the rigging slots of a ship.
