Don't scoff at the disruptor out of hand, if the opponent has shield regenerators or crystaline armor, you may want to take out shield generators as well as drain the shields, or theyll be back up again the next combat round

Shield regenerators are not very useful in the normal game. 1 LM Shield Depelter V (300 dmg, 30 KT) will drop the shields regenerated by 12 Shield Regenerator Vs (300 shield points, 240 KT). That is no reason to use Shield Disruptors. As for Crystalline Armor, the Shield Depleter knocks out the shields that the previous APB hit raised up.  By the time you have APB XIIs, CA isn't much of a threat, esp. with large and heavy -mounted APBs. |
