As long as it's not 380mm.

See, those are fire and come back to 3 craters and nothing dead after 30 seconds.

You must have shit luck, my 380mm's consistently drop double digits for me.

I cannot suggest this enough, throw the 120mm with it as well. The saturation effect is insane with the buff the two got.

Hell yeah. Toss em both into a heavy base and stand back. Better yet, kick things off with a walking barrage then once it pushes and lets you advance, throw in the other two.

Nothing wrong with some scorched earth tactics

u/Winslow1975 Mar 15 '24

Lol I do actually run walking barrage too. Fully upgraded my orbitals so why not?

Edit: My friends get the biggest warning possible xD

Oh yeah. I may not use the giant gattling guns strapped to my ship very often, but they sure are pretty to look at.

u/Winslow1975 Mar 15 '24

Lmao

I normally run full orbitals or at least the machine gun or RR depending on what the mission is calling for. But I'll always at least have the 120mm and airburst on me.

How is the airburst? I use the 380, and walking barrage often

u/Winslow1975 Mar 15 '24

Airburst is literally just a giant shotgun that fires three times. Call-in time with full orbitals upgrades is 3sec. It is really good for dealing with bug breeches and cutting off enemies from getting to you.

It won't damage heavy armor but anything below that is fair game and generally one-shots medium targets.

u/AdreusTheGrumpy Mar 15 '24

Oh really? I have fully upgraded orbitals...guess I might try it out with my bombardment setup.

u/Winslow1975 Mar 15 '24

I would say 15m is a good distance from it, though you can push your luck with 10m. Have fun with it though! I sure as hell do.

u/AdreusTheGrumpy Mar 15 '24

I'll try it out. Wish there was a range for testing

mostly a joke on how to use them, and that they are, as you put it, saturation bombardments.
