Description
Particle Beams are a type of beam weapon. Unlike Lasers and Plasma Carronades their damage does not drop off at larger ranges.
Their rate of fire is
Base Damage*2.5 / Capacitor Recharge Rate * 5s
Particle beams cannot be mounted in turrets.
Usage
Particle Beams are useful at long beam ranges as anti-ship weaponry. At close range they are outperformed by Lasers. They are not recommended as PD weapons as they can't be turreted, and most missiles only require one damage.
