:Additionaly, premium ships don't get the faction specific version of their respective [[Special Weapons]].
:Steam DLC ships are slightly better then other ships of the same type due to the addition of a passive slot and offering a different missile loadout composition.


;What is the ship's Synergy Level?
;What is the ship's Synergy Level?
:Synergy is the level of your ship. Your Synergy is automatically leveled up by earning "experience" in matches. When leveling up your Synergy, the stats of your ship will significantly increase. On each ship's wiki page, you will find a table giving the ship's stats for each synergy level.
:Synergy is the gradual, extra empowerment of a ship which comes over time by flying it. As you gain ship synergy, there will be indicators in the hangar telling you it is qualified for a level-up.

;What is the best weapon?
;What is the best weapon?
:This question can't be answered, because it depends a lot on your gameplay.
:This question can't be answered, because it depends a lot on your gameplay.
;What's the difference between a laser, a plasma canon and a railgun ?
:Those are the three main weapon groups.
:Lasers deal thermal damage (or EM with a microwave lens), Plasma deal EM damage (or kinetic with a needle module), Railgun deal kinetic damage (Thermal with antimatter shells).
:In general, kinetic damage is most effective against hull, EM damage is most effective against shields and thermal damage offers a balance between the two. Resistances can be tweaked using passive modules tho, so this does not always apply.
:Lasers offer the fastest projectile speed, but lowest damage output (exception being the pulse lasers), Kinetic having the second fastest projectile speed with moderate damage and plasma offering the slowest projectile speed at a high damage output.
;Why does it seem that lasers are much less effective at dealing damage as a whole than the others?
:Lasers have the smallest projectile size, in fact they shoot tiny beams. Hitting shields with them is as easy as with any other weapon but when it comes to damaging the hull itself, the beams need to hit the hull precisely rather then the sphere around it. Shields are about 2 times as big as the ship itself.
:When using persistent lasers you need to stick on the target for 100% of the time to reach the optimum damage output. Furthermore all of your beams have to hit. If say only 3 of 4 shot beams hit the enemy ship, you will only get 3/4 of the damage -> Less time on target deals less damage. Pulse and long-range lasers do not fit into the persistent category and as such this does not apply to them.

Expert mode allows for less view while increasing ship control. The camera will remain behind your ship, looking directly ahead. When you move your mouse to the edges of the screen, the ship will turn. It is more difficult to see and shoot at extreme angles in this mode.
How is the credit reward calculated at the end of a battle.
A fixed amount is divided into the player of each team according to the efficiency of each player. It doesn't depend on whether you win or lose the battle.
