Or, as a support weapon for those with slow firing rate - like seeker ships. Fire few seekers, and throw away anyone daring to come close enough.
But you shouldn't repulse the ship that your seekers are targeting, else the target will just get more chances to hit the seekers with PD... (well, assuming the enemy uses PD).
BTW - repulsers are especially effective against races with short-range weapons (the Drushocka in my game just researched High-Energy Weapons, so they're loading up on Ripper Beams; since I have a speed advantage, I can keep them at range 3 without repulsors, but the repulsor beam would have made it easier. It was still lots of fun watching 2 BC's wipe out 9 DNs!)
