Can someone please explain to me why the hell Triglavion weapons systems cost so much to repiar with nanite??
You only have the one disintegrator, other ships have four to eight weapons.

im not following… over heat a small trig gun to 30% and see how much nanite it needs to repair
Note that Anna did not dispute that trig guns require a lot of nanite to repair.
She’s saying Triglavian ships only have a single gun instead of 4 to 8.
I do not know exactly how much it costs to repair a Trig gun with nanite repair paste, but if it costs about 6 times as much as a regular gun that size I would think that’s fair and brings repairing Trig weapons in line with repairing a full rack of multiple other weapons on non-Trig ships.
It is also one of the intentional drawbacks of this weapon.

As others pointed - you have one gun only. The consequences are:
- You can overheat MUCH longer because only one module generates heat. Try heating 8 ACs simultaneously and you will be able to do only a few heated shots. But trigs can heat guns for minutes.
- You repair only one gun when others rep 3-8 guns/turrets.
- Using only 1 gun for full DPS gives you a bunch of utility slots.
For having several benefits simultaneously you have to pay the price. And I’m not even talking about trig guns having awesome tracking and DPS.
Except this is one of those boons trig ships get in exchange for their initially very low DPS. I have to assume it’s an intentional design.
