On a more basic level, ships who have the needed range benefit more from improved tracking than they do from getting more range. Similarly a ship with mediocre or only decent range, but with good tracking already, will benefit the most from tracking speed. A good rule of thumb can be to give '''optimal range''' to ships fitted with blasters (and in some cases autocannons if their range is too low) while most other ships benefit more from '''tracking speed'''. | On a more basic level, ships who have the needed range benefit more from improved tracking than they do from getting more range.

For vanguards it's almost always more useful to put remote tracking computers on your logistics, including the basilisk, because the need for increased locking speed is often outweighed by the overall improved dps that comes from the remote tracking computers. In assaults and headquarters however, the fleet can often benefit from a few remote sensor boosters from their basilisks. When it comes to using remote sensor boosters, it is often better to boost the worst scan resolution than it is to try and ''top off'' an already decent scan resolution. If people learn to pre-lock as many targets as possible, the first lock is the most critical one. Getting that slow-locking battleship to 8 seconds instead of 16 seconds is a huge boost for the fleet, as it means that ship will apply damage much, much faster. Certainly better than boosting the dronebunny from 5 seconds to 2,5 second locking time in most scenarios. | For vanguards it's almost always more useful to put remote tracking computers on your logistics, including the basilisk, because the need for increased locking speed is often outweighed by the overall improved dps that comes from the remote tracking computers.
