    One of the most underrated weapons in the Bay deserves more love than it's getting. This is my former TheGunslinger account now using the name Gun$hot. Strapped on 3 carronades on my Defender and went to town. There are drawbacks and some maps are more favorable to the carronade's short throw distance, but with that super quick cool down, you can seriously shut enemies down. See for yourself...

    Oh and i'm getting so much closer to the T5 thanks to the LT1 you see on the boat and my achievements. Look out. :)

    It is an entertaining setup... But you never were able to fire fast enough to warrant 3 Carronades. I'm pretty sure any T5 Epic or T4 Legendary would be strong enough to use. A single Carronade on a Defender coupled with a pair of longer range weapons is probably the best setup currently.

    Well you can throw on an Explosive, but there is something to be said to always have one ready to fire.

    True. Maybe when you get done with that T5 Legendary you could just ship that T5 Epic over to me. I'll take good care of it. ;)

    Maaaan~ you should totally try double carronade triple nitro on the speeder. Heck, if I had the gear, I'd do it! The damage output is beastly, and at close range, there's no ship that would dare face you... Except perhaps an enforcer who can really play midrange bait.

    Except for the fact that speeder only has 2 weapon slots, sounds like a great idea LOL

    Whoops, editing.

    I was thinking of an enfo loadout right there. Imagine two carros with range and one with raw damage on a double bubble enfo.... I get shudders just thinking about it.​

    If i was used to dealing with a lot of things to tap that weren't shooting, probably better. I'm used to offensive taps. Defensive taps throw my game off a bit.

    But, I don't see the point of using 3 carro. As, by the time 1 carro is fired the other will be ready to fire. So, there's no need of 3rd carro. Same as with the std cannon. No point in carrying 3, as u can always use the 2 continuously and the 3rd will be left untouched.:rolleyes:

    One can use two range carros and one raw damage carro... It's a build for when situations vary. Man if I had a ship with the speeder's agility and the enfo's wepslots...

    Why did no one mention me or @Da Carronade King . We are ace with legendary carronades.
    Ur actually really good with the carronade though I would also question 3 carronades. I myself would limit myself to 2 plus the fact I cant be bothered to make an epic one from scratch. I have to settle for 2 tier 1 legendary carronades. While my set up currently is terrible without that second carronade, ur video shows how it can help a lot on defender. Double carronades can be used on literally all the ships but I would say just one on shooter and on fixers its debatable (yet a mk6 fixer with two carronades is a challenge I would like to take) given fixers usually prone to staying close to friends so would prefer other weapons.
