Turreted Thermal Vent Beam Vs Hydra

[@williammenier9741]

Is that a size 2 or 1 beam laser? Does thermal vent stack with multiple lasers? Is the heat dump of t vent more on size 1 or size 4?

It is a size 1. Thermal vent does stack but for this application size 1 is more than enough to cool the ship. Gimbaled does a better job (more cooling). If you're going where I think you might be going with this I'll try and save you some engineering, it is not good enough to replace heatsinks. I built a weapons focused, cold running, krait build with 2 c3 LR turreted beams, and I could not keep up with the heat of 2 gauss for sustained fire rate (you have to wait for cooling too long between shots). Heatsinks really are the way to go. This just cools you down to setup for attack runs. Check out the website www.antixenoinitiative.com

@@cmdrorlandu143 what about thermal slug? the plasma exp effect should reload from the fuel tank which is refilled by a star, if i synth premium ammo then will i have that until i restock?
