Gleam has less range and damage, And less tracking.

Granted Aurora L is better then its T1 and Faction counterparts. (More damage and range)


Those stats are out of date.

250k optimal range on my naga is nice. *shrug*

I always thought that the long range ammo for long range guns was pretty solid, getting mid range DPS at long range seems pretty strong. The tech II short range ammo for long range guns always seemed suspect to me, at least compared to faction ammo.

Short range ammo is fine now. You'll never need long range of the long range ammo, so you're only getting the dps nerf and no benefit in nearly all situations. Try it, and feel the pain of railgun users.

AFAIK, general properties of T2 ammo (since people still state different info here) look somewhat like this:
- long ranged ammo with tracking penalty and average damage;
- very short range ammo with tracking bonus and high damage.

I'd note that it's not quite like it is for short ranged guns where close range T2 ammo hits significantly harder, but has tracking penalty, although in this case properties are less uniformic than with long ranged guns.


This is correct. Short range T2 does about the same damage as short range faction ammo but with a different damage mix and a tracking bonus. Long range T2 does about the same damage as mid to long range faction ammo out to very long range but with a tracking penalty.

Its quite possible they are. I personally prefer Pulses over Beams.

Hybrids i prefer blasters and almost never use T2 long range ammo in sniper fits.

Artillery is RF insert damage type here for sniping out to 90km. RF TS for anything greater then that.

Missiles is the only Long Range T2 ammo i use generally
