    I've committed to being a shooter. Not a bad choice given I'm allowed the luxury of utilizing odd weapons like mines, napalm, and the railgun.

    However I don't get to see what the MK6-7 of other ships because I haven't invested gold in them boats that I don't run.

    I would really like to know what the MK7 slots are for shooter, and the MK6-7 for the other ships.

    Screen shots would be of the best help for anyone that falls onto this thread.

    Thanks in advance and please ask me to clarify if I'm being too vague.

    I don't know what you mean by this. You can choose any weapon on a shooter. At high level it's not a good idea to run a standard cannon or standard mortar, but other than that, anything goes.

    If you mean how many slots and points various ship levels get, here's a thread that lists all of them:

    Thanks for the thread, that was exactly what I was inquiring about. I wouldn't of thought standard cannon would be a bad idea if it's leveled appropriately.

    My logic is for MK6 you get 8 slot points to spread across 5 slots. that would be 3 big weapons and 2 single slot weapons.

    for the sake of weapon variety I'm thinking swift torpedo (1), Sniper Cannon (1), Railgun (2), Napalm (2), and unsure of the 5th weapon.

    Why do you want a variety?

    @Cpt. Sea Wasp [WASPS] The point of regular cannon is that it has a low cooldown, making it a great weapon for every ship at the start of the game, when you don't have many slots yet. When you have a shooter with 5 weapons it's a bad choice because you won't be making good use of that low cooldown. You'll be busy enough firing 5 other weapons (which will all have higher damage than cannon)

    It also works good on defender, who are generally in the thick of combat and only have 2 or 3 weapons, cool down time becomes a big factor in how much damage per second you do. So fire cannon, fire your other two weapons and cannon is available again. I see defenders often with two cannons continuously firing them
