Plasma weapons

Post by Delandra »

G'day all,

Can I get feedback from those that use Plasma weapons?

I was thinking of changing from Energy to Plasma and interested in what I can expect..

The player made Plasma weapons only list minimum Plasma skill as a requirement.. do they also need the Alien weapon tech certificates..

will take a while for met to get enough IPs and expanse experience..

Any comments most welcome.

thanks
Del

Plasma Weapons can sometimes make your pants fall down if you don't use them correctly

for that matter, they might make it so you don't need to wear pants anymore...

Alien Certs are required for the plasma weapons. I started with Alien Salvage weapons which require a lower plasma skill and eased my way into it. But maintaining two weapon skills is an IP challenge that I haven't mastered yet.

Personally I've found that plasma weapons are only a marginal improvement upon traditional energy/kinetic weapons, and only after about lvl 100. I think I wouldn't really recommend them for the weapon per say, but rather because the plasma skill lets you use alien salvage cutters, if your not interested in alien salvage I think you can probably stick with normal weapons.

...besides, do you really want to risk Fang - surrounded by that O2 smell of his - with his pants down? <shudder><wretch>
