Default Re: What do you think is the best weapon at endgame?

I used capital ship missiles in the beginning but I hated the delay on them. I really prefer the PPBs and I pretty much use them for all my ships. I met a race that had these really nasty weapons that did a godly amount of damage that went through my level 5 phased shields in no time. I had to rethink my strategy. I put 20 plasma missiles on a dreadnaught with 2 dreadnaughts filled with PPBs. I went to his home planet and met up with 2 starbases with those nasty weapons. With my plasma missiles I was able to stay just out of range and blow it up. Any ship that got remotely close to me got wiped out by the PPBs. For some reason this race only had cruisers at this point so I never found out if he could have beaten me with a bigger ship.
PPBs are really nasty with experienced ships. Seems all the AI ships have heavy shields and light armor.
