Megathron: Difference between revisions

Line 94:

The '''Megathron''' is a gun boat, specializing in large hybrid turrets, and being something of a spiritual successor to the [[Thorax]] and [[Brutix]]. With 4 mid slots and 8 lows, it is almost exclusively armor-tanked, and can mount a thick armor buffer or a respectable active tank (though it lacks the [[Hyperion]]'s active tank bonus). It has the bandwidth and drone bay to field either a flight of 3 heavy drones or full flights of both light and medium drones to add to its DPS.

In fleet combat Megathrons are usually fitted with railguns which can reach very good ranges due to [[Turrets#Hybrid_ammo|spike ammunition]]; at the same time the application is decent due to the bonus to tracking speed. Besides that, it can also be used as an high-DPS brawler.

The Megathron is also traditionally used to roll wormholes. This is because with the old wormhole mechanics it was favorable to have a ship mass of just under 100 kt before fitting. In comparison to the other options the Megathron has many lows lots for tank and enough mid slots for a range of prop mods.
