Wolf Rayets are partially opposite to Pulsars. | Wolf Rayets are partially opposite to Pulsars, penalizing shields, enhancing armor, and reducing signature radii to reduce the strength of large weapons. However, the most striking aspect of the Wolf Rayet effect is the unbelievably huge bonus to ''Small'' weapon damage. This damage bonus means that the rulers of Wolf Rayet combat are Frigates, [[Tactical Destroyers]], and Cruisers fitted with Rapid Light Missile Launchers (as Rapid Lights are also considered "small" weapons, and are one of the few weapons systems that can effectively damage extremely-small-signature Frigates and Destroyers). | ||
As an aside, Wolf Rayet systems in general are not to be confused with the so-called C13 [[Shattered_wormhole_systems#Small_Ship_Shattered_Wormhole_Systems|Small Ship Shattered wormholes]], which use C6-strength Wolf Rayet effects. | |||
