Does the cycle have the most DPS if the gunner were to hit with all 3 shots that equal around 639 direct total damage, not sure how long the delay is maybe 1-2 seconds, but the cycled can in theory has the most DPS potential? Do you agree or disagree? |

Implying the missiles ever hit anything at all |

you'd have to hit direct with all three missiles...no small task. so, in theory, it has the most DPS potential. the splash damage is quite minimal also...so unless you're a deadeye and can hit direct with all 3 missiles, you'll get more DPS out of your small blaster turret. |

it's not really that hard to hit a tank with small missiles |

As others have said, assuming you can get all 3 hits it does have the highest potential DPS, in practice though the lower direct damage per missile means it actually has a lower DPS than the other types such as the accelerated missiles. The AM can more reliably hit targets and will do more damage when it does hit targets, giving it probably the best DPS of any small turret, not sure how you would stack it against the fragmented if you wanted to include splash, but in my experience direct hits are generally the quickest ways to kill. |

Hitting any target while the tank you are in is moving is a matter of luck though |

actually it would fired from an ADS. it's not my first dropship rodeo, just wondering about the numbers |

Ah you are talking about the dropship, thats a whole other matter completely
In an LAV or HAV firing a missile unless the vehicle is standing stock still send it veering wildly off target ADS or not |

Why do small turret missiles suck so bad now? Even with vehicle movement, the completely random directions they travel makes no sense at all.
I mean, I know back when they were easily the best turret most of the time, but I'd rather deal with a damage, or ROF, or AOE nerf than whatever has even been happening for nearly the last year. |

yea on my LLAV for disruption we used a scattered ion but on DS i use just a neutron on the left doorgun, a cycled on the right door, and nose turret
i guess i use the cycle on the nose turret because aiming requires some guess work |

the devs said way back somewhere that they were going to fix the accuracy
i sometimes try out a rail turret on a dropship doorgun but it seems pretty futile |

Small rail guns are without a doubt the single most useless thing in dust right now, impossible to aim reliably with, crap efficiency ratings, ridiculous overheats, there is literally no reason to choose them. And on the nose turret small missiles are pretty accurate, anywhere else and they suffer though. |
