During the last two events that included daily giveaways why were the damage boosters always for energy turrets? Most of my characters mainly use hybrid turrets because they are using ships that provide a bonus for hybrid turrets. I don’t understand why there is never a damage booster for either hybrid or projectile turret types. Also seemingly ignored are missiles, precursors, and Vorton, etc. Yes, all my characters are trained in the use of various weapon systems so it’s not as if the energy damage boosters are useless. But they are used by the character that flies Amarr ships as their primary faction and so they are the only beneficiary of the daily drops. I am just wondering why all of the other weapon types never seem to receive the same attention as energy turrets. It would be great to receive boosters for all the various types of weapons used by my other characters.
Princess Aiko prefers to use Energy Turrets.
btw thank you for wearing yellow, you look good in
The explanation is lore. The Halloween event centers around the Blood Raiders and the Tetrimon Order, both of which use lasers. The Christmas event is Sansha (Claus), who also use lasers.
Maybe they should add some guristas and angels events, and we could get drone, missiles, and projectile boosters also. I’m fine with there not being an event for the serpentis though, they’re very boring anyway. Like steal a titan and proceed to do bugger all with it, for shame.
Short answer is lore.
Crimson Harvest and Winter Nexus events are connected to two pirate factions that operate in Amarr hisec: Sansha and Blood Raiders. The rewards are connected to the systems needed to operate those factions’ starships (as well as Amarr, who fight them).
If you want hybrid event boosters, ask CCP to do a seasonal event starring the Serpentis. Bonus: they’re known for their drug production!
The real simple answer is you bought a knock off copy of my outfit! I go out and get a one of a kind, tailor made outfit, and people buy these knock offs from Wal-Mart. Gawd!
There are also more types of energy turret upgrades offered in the market than the gyrostabilizers or the magnetic field stabilizers. Apparently the devs at CCP are in love with the lasers. I like them for the lack of ammo needed, but other than that, give me a hybrid turret and some antimatter rounds any day of the week.
Have fun!
Yeah, damn the Lore… Event Damage Boosters should be for all weapon systems, not just for a specific type…
I think the type of Damage Booster you’re looking for is what I use, the Agency ‘Pyrolancea’ Dose which boosts Turret damage, Missile damage and Vorton Projector damage for 30 minutes (20% bonus to booster time duration for each level of Biology skill trained)… Level 5 Biology skill doubles the booster time duration…
Anyway, the Agency ‘Pyrolancea’ Dose is available in 4 different percentage increase types:
Dose I = 3% increase
Dose II = 5% increase
Dose III = 7% increase
Dose IV = 9% increase
They did a guristas event, the easter event, because of, you know, the rabbits
We had “Guardians Gala” (Angels, Serpentis) and “Gurista Hunt” events in the past, tho I don’t remember if their rewards were missile or drone related…
For the guristas event there were the Guri Hivaa booster and the low slot BCU/DDA combination item
I thought nobody would have ever asked this question…
Missiles and drones deserves some love too… but also
Cannons… bc they don’t use cap they should just make sense in the lore…
Hybrids and lasers uses a lot of cap on the other hand and it’s somewhat also
justified to give a boost to the weaker weapon system… lasers…
