    Hey guys, I need help choosing between Epic T2 Blast cannon with 1 more duplicate or I can buy a rare cannonade and level it up. My current set up is Blast cannon, Big torp, Overboost, nitro, Turbo and rudder. I'm thinking I can replace blast cannon with cannonade and use big torp and cannonade's freezing ability and turret slow to circle. I can use the big torp to counter defender's high Defence and rip anything other than a defender apart.... but cannonade doesn't so much damage, my blast cannon does more dps So Idk what to use. What do you guys think? (I am ftp and Mk4 speeder)

    Keep the blast cannon. Pair it up with flare, maybe.

    I'm not good with flare because shooters always hit me back after I set them on fire. I like big torp because of the huge damage

    If you like your blast, keep it, as a F2P it'll take long for you to get another epic t2

    Carronade must be used upon Speeders,Enforcers and Fixers because they have low defence points.Carronade has little impact on Shooters and very little impact on Defenders because they have high defence points.

    No worries because I can use cannonade on speeder, enforcer and fixer and big torp on the others;)

    Or you could go for a high range carro with pure frost talents, so that you could chain frost with the bigtorp...

    BUT carro is a pretty lategame gun, and blasts are evergreen, so keep both, imho

    In early game, yes but if you upgrade that carronade to t4 or t5 you can easily slaughter shooters and even defenders(not very effective but still doing good damage).

    I have both a t4 epic carronade and a t4 epic blast cannon, and from experience of using both with big torp, i would recommend keeping the blast for sure.

    At first it may seem like a good idea with the slow from carronade but the duration of that slow is quite short. By the time u can fire ur big torp, its almost guranteed to already have run out (not to mention the time it takes big torp to travel)

    Additionally carronade’s dmg is maximised at very close range, taking into consideration big torp’s arming distance, this works against one another. Blast cannon on the other hand can be fired after firing the big torp for stacked burst of dmg.

    Carronades are only worth it when they are high level and when you have training for it.

    Anything depends upon your skill and time you have spent with your weapon. If you like trying new always without getting bored you can try anything. But if you are onto infamy then fix the item you are using from the start or use which you are good at. Every item has it's pros and cons, if you know that well you can rule with that item. My suggestion is try all items until you think you got what you want, and then start your real game. End of the day it's just a game so enjoy it more than seeing it like a duty. As simple as that.
