I was running my Anaconda with all MC's before I changed the large 4A to a Beam, which is Effiecient/Oversized.

With all 8 weapons being MC's, compared to the difference between 1 Beam and 7 MC's, I can take the shields down probably 5 times faster than just the MC's, then I use just the MC's to eat the hull and down the ship!

Last night on the last pirate I fought which was a Vette, probably took 5 sec's for shields with Beam, and 5 secs for hull. Of course those are rough estimates, there's several factors involved, chaffing, maneuvering, distance.

I'm saying if we were standing toe to toe at 500meters roughly!

Taking the shields down and killing the hull with 8 MC's would take roughly a minute in comparison. Smaller ships don't stand a chance. I haven't encountered a T10 Defender yet, and they usually are packed with Hull reinforcements, so that will be fun! LOL
