The most widely used weapons in EVE fire ammunition at a target. Each kind of weapons module typically comes in small, medium, and large - though the naming conventions may use other descriptive terms. You can usually expect smaller weapons modules to load faster and fire more quickly than large ones. Smaller modules tend to do less damage per hit with a rapid hit rate, while larger weapons tend to do more damage per hit with more time between hits. | The most widely used weapons in EVE fire ammunition at a target.

In practice a small, fast ship can kill a large, slow one. The large ship uses large weapons that are very powerful, but are slow to find their targets. The small ship does not have powerful weapons, but by moving quickly and staying out of the larger ship's weapons targeting, it can deliver a large number of small hits. This kind of encounter has as much to do with the relative skills of the pilots as with the weapons characteristics of the ships. | |||
