Re: Missiles and Experience
Furthermore, if I remember it correctly, shooting seekers down gives you 1/10 experience points in combat. So you gain 1% experience by shooting down 10 fighters or missiles. I am not sure about drones. I might remember this wrong, though.

Re: Missiles and Experience
OK, I just tried it now, and ships do not get experience from destroying enemy ships using seekers, even with the latest patch.  |

Re: Missiles and Experience
Did you try it with how many seekers? I remember that someone said at some forgotten thread that you have to shoot them down en masse, so my numbers of 10 seekers for 1% can be mumbo jumbo.

Re: Missiles and Experience
I'm not shooting down seekers. My ship is firing seekers at enemy ships. My ship doesn't get experience when the enemy ship is destroyed.

See, I always thought that was the point. We used to say that you had to switch to direct-fire for experience. Maybe the mention of it in the patch was removing the Last bugs that allowed experience to come from a missile kill. |
