Heavy Scatter Missiles? - Resolved, Split Dumbfire Missiles.

Post by H34Dru5H »

I own the blueprint for 'Heavy Scatter Missile' but I can't build or buy them anywhere. Have they been withdrawn for some reason? Coming to think of it, were they ever available as I don't remember ever using them.

Those are the anti-capital missiles for the Sapporo main weapon system I believe, only ship that uses missiles as main gun. You should also have a light variant of it to wipe out fighterfleets with it. <- incorrect, was thinking of the wrong missile (Sapporo missile blueprints you get for free, hence the confusion)

Made an error, the Heavy Scatter missiles are unique split missiles for dumbfire missile turrets & are meant to be anti-capital: Heavy scatter missile

I checked with TER and PIO for Scatter Missile blueprints, nothing there but ZYA lists the Heavy Scatter blueprint which may be where I bought it but it's not an option for ship loadout, no Light Scatter Missile is listed. Just now I was checking the missile stock at one of my defence stations and what do you know? There they are available for loadout, I swapped out 150 Heavy Guided for Scatter and they are armed and ready, will see how they perform.

Edit: Right just to confuse things, I just sent a destroyer for a refit at my wharf armed with Dumbfire Turrets and found to my surprise I can now loadup with Heavy Scatter Missiles. My defence station also has dumbfire turrets so I'm figuring these scatter missiles are for dumbfire turrets and perhaps launchers. Up until now I've been trying to find scatter missiles for, as you would expect, missile turrets :?
