Heavy Plasma Cannons are a heavy weapon and the largest variant of Plasma Cannon. This version has more range. There is a reason for this however, but legends say that you can only find out why in the afterlife. Darn.

Overview[]

As the Heavy Plasma Cannon is a heavy weapon, it deals more burst damage at longer ranges than its lighter counterparts. This gives it more synergy to the recommended tactic of bombarding your opponents at long ranges that plasma cannons should be used for. The heavy plasma cannon has an extreme range and deals very high damage, allowing you to completely destroy other ships before they even get into range. Additionally, it is proportionately not as expensive compared to the laser cannons as either of the lighter variants, as it is only twice the price, rather than three times. This makes the heavy plasma cannon the most efficient weight to use it at, but as usual, without a decent gunner, the extra range and velocity is almost meaningless as you will miss frequently.
