how fast does it shoot? i would've had it a long time ago, but i instead skilled into proto plasma cannons with some proficiency.
i'm so excited, because i did the calculations and i'm going to have it by tomorrow! i have proficiency IV and it already fires really fast, so i can't wait to find out find out fast proficiency V shoots!

Well, I'm going to go ahead and say it probably makes it about 3% faster |

How many people do you really think have Prof5?
You probably know how fast it'll be more than 99% of the entire community.

If you check out the weapon spreadsheets in feedback/requests, CCP internally measures ROF in time between shots, not RPM as stated in the weapon info. Therefore a reduction to ROF = reduced time between shots = higher RPM. |

I mean, they're misusing the word rate, but other than that it makes lots of sense from a game engine perspective- of course it's measured as the amount of time the gun has to wait between shots, that's what the game cares about. |

If you already have Prof 4 then you probably won't notice much difference moving to Prof 5. Law of diminishing returns. Lots of SP, not much gain.
Mail me in game if interested in learning about the Amarr Empire and serving them in Faction Warfare.

I have it, and I didn't notice from 4 to 5, because it already has a boss ROF at 4. Maybe others did.

I got to level 3 before I gave up on it because I certainly didn't notice any difference. And then I gave up on shotty's altogether because they suck.

the shot is
deal damage wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait deal damage
the number of "wait"s is quantifiable to give a 10% rof boost you'd simply remove one "wait". this is very simplified logic btw.

Knight, that was the most confusing explanation I've ever heard.
Here is a simple explanation:
The proficiency decreases the time in between shots. This means that you can shoot more in less time.

I think this calculation is already working on protofits.com please feel free to experiment. You can use it without registering.

I'll go to shotgun proficiency after I get some for the knives.
I can't tell you how many times I've died to a heavy with 40 armor left because I couldn't get 1 more shot in time. |

Even max proficiency you are only getting about 98.5 rpm or 1 shot every 1.64 seconds.
Going from lvl 4 to 5, you go from 95.99 to 98.5 rpm or from 1.60 rds a second to 1.64. Hardly noticeable at all. |

Base Stats (No Proficiency) = 8 Shots (One 'Magazine') in 5.6s
Level 5 Proficiency = 8 Shots in 4.8s
Creodron Shotgun DPS (Base) = 754.2
Creodron Shotgun DPS (Pro 5) = 867.4
Not too great of a difference for such an expensive skill, an RoF bonus on an Alpha Weapon isn't the greatest of ideas.

It's on par with a reload speed bonus on a long range weapon.
