'''Turret optimal and falloff penalty (Dark):''' As this applies to not only NPC and player turrets but player drone turrets, it is inadvisable to bring turret or drone boats to these sites, and to use launchers instead. Additionally, missiles lack of navigation requirements for the purposes of damage application, enable the player to more easily and better take advantage of the maximum velocity bonus found in this weather. This penalty will dramatically reduce the amount of tank requirement/damage taken by players due to the NPC AI not correcting for the reduced range; they will fire on you from outside optimal, and often even outside 1x falloff or more, and consistently miss. Finally, this penalty means that there is no resist penalty, and therefore no resist hole to attack. This weather will require more damage output than most others, save potentially Firestorm. | '''Turret optimal and falloff penalty (Dark):''' As this applies to not only NPC and player turrets but player drone turrets, it is inadvisable to bring turret or drone boats to these sites, and to use launchers instead.

'''Maximum Velocity bonus (Dark):''' Enemies and player drones will only use the bonused attribute of "Maximum Velocity" when chasing. When in their desired range, they will use their normal, un-bonused "Orbit Velocity". Players, however, are able to control how much of their max velocity they are using, and thus can fully benefit from this bonus. | '''Maximum Velocity bonus (Dark):''' Enemies and player drones will only use the bonused attribute of "Maximum Velocity" when chasing.
