Hi so ive been having lots of fun with 280s recently. Just wondering if there's any info on the max tracking. Eg at what point will I no longer benefit from more tracking. I hope that's worded clearly .

Ty in advance

That's not really a question that can be answered, it will always depend on what your target is doing as well as its size.

There isn't such a cut-off point, because ships will always be faster - you can only mitigate that.

Read up on how tracking works, everything becomes clear when you understand the mechanics

Ok so take a frig doing typical frig things and orbiting at say 5k at roughly 400m/s maybe there's some graph or something? I can't find one (the right one) from the google god :(

EFT has dps graph that lets you input parameters for the ship you are shooting at. It is a bit cumbersome but it should give you the info you are looking for.
