Arc Emitters are great if you stack a fleet with them. I have got some value from Arc emitter X slot, triple kinetic artillery, and double M plasma cannon. The front can vary, based on what tech you've unlocked, but start with carrier and hangar portions for the bow and core (total three fighter squadrons), upgrade the bow to a spinal mount with either tachyon lance or focused arc emitters when researched. For balanced fleet I'm using Arc Emitters, but my fleet is made of: Disruptor Corvettes. 在steam中打开游戏本地文件夹.

Neutron Launcher: crazy-high damage output, very much a mini-Tachyon Lance. Embarrassingly, I'm still a hefty novice when it comes to ship design. 1 hull, so a weapon with lower DPS that can directly go for hull works best. If you aren't going long-range, use a different ship type. Besides, arc emitters build off of the far superior plasma thrower, while you have to research lasers to get lances. 3. However, this build has the. Yeah the S- or M plasma on Line Cruisers are fine. I personally go with neutron / gigacannon, but others use arc emitter / cloud lightning. Go to Stellaris r/Stellaris. That means the megacannon will try to keep hitting shielded target while the particle cannon will go for unshielded targets. So you know how if you destroy the Hull you basically destroy the entire ship. The main advantage is that by the End-Game phase (assuming default 2200) you should have a few levels of repeatable tech on Physics for Energy Weapons to make AE+D+CL combo more powerful.
