the Nova Torpedo compared to the quatum torp, which all come at the same levels, is 100% useless, half fire rate, exactly half damage, for a double damage to shields... the double is canceled by the half damage, and then the half fire rate on top of that......
Actually, half damage and half fire rate means it is EXACTLY as powerful as the other one. Consider the formula damage / size / ROF for comparing weapons.

Now that I actually look at the weapons, Nova Burst is about one third as expensive as QT. So, it is not quite a useless weapon.
