The Breen cluster mine is a Transphasic mine, so pretty sure that the transphasic consoles effect it
IE: Transphasic Compressor.

[Farron]

Good start! If it helps, I did something similar a while ago http://ufplanets.com/showthread.php?...arship-Weapons

If you find anything useful in there, feel free to put it in your guide

[Kantazo]

I recommend this for sticky. If possible.

Even the breen space set helps

[Dark]

*cough* :emoticon_ShiftyEyes

My guide to shields and armor starts by explaining how damage from energy and kinetic weapons interact with shields and armor, which is relevant for choosing between those two types.

My outdated guide to weapons contains a write-up about damage drop-off for the various energy weapons and a quick comparison of the base damage between common loadouts at various ranges. There are also a bunch of links to things that boost particular energy types in the explanation for each type, but sadly it's out of date and missing new toys (like the Sphere of Influence set which gives a +10% post-mod, not base, boost to AP damage).

[Farron]

Pfft, my weapon guide is more outdated than yours :p

Still, if someone were to pool the info across these various guides and update it where necessary, we'd have a pretty nifty resource!

[Cehus]

Very nice work Bridger!

[Bridger]

Thanks to everyone.
