I'm wondering what weapon types in both beams/canons and torpedoes are the best at each tier for DPS. I'm guessing it goes something like phasers at t1, plasma at t2, but I'm not sure.

disruptors at t1-t5

Use rocks and crudely-fashioned spears to maximize DPS.

Disruptors all the way to t5? So the later stuff like plasma and anti-proton weapons are not as good as disruptors for dps.

What he means is, that Disruptors are the only weapon type, whose secondary effect lowers the target's resistance. So they are considered more DPS orientated than the other weapons.

Still each weapon has a place depending on your class and setup. Its all about strategy but I really do hope people stop playing this ike WOW.

Disruptor+Tetryon = win!
