Default Re: Combat, what\'s the deal?

Toxic injectors are only of limited usefullness, and usually early in the game. Early on, there's nothing that can beat them. 2 hits for a destroyer, 3 for a cruiser. However, as you advance, they become almost useless, except at very close range (before PD cannons can shoot them down). Later in the game all enemy ships pack PD cannons and render your TI torps useless.

Oh and a hint. ALWAYS pack 2-3 PD cannons. Toxic injectors can be used against you too, and couple of hits and you're out of it...for good. Personally, I pack 4, but that's overkill You only need that if you mod in a pirate system with 200 or so ships waiting when you get there. But I'm just a glutton for punishment I guess
