I just ran a comparison in TEK for a 3 Gat3-Belters AdvFig vs a Belters Miner and a 1galv 2 dis3 Belters AdvFig vs the same Belters miner:

TTK (both 80% accuracy):
3 Gat3s 19,9s
1 Galv, 2 Dis3s 72,8s
(I didn't account dumbfire missiles in, the time to kill may sink adequately more with the galv+dis combo then because you can usually take more missiles with you this way)

And that's where I end thinking of buying dis3 as a commander. Because I really care @#(! if my team is able to fight Ints more efficient or not, all they have to kill are utility crafts and scouts (on the bomb/httruns).
Don't equip galvgun if you aren't going to galv. Easy
Get Dis3 if you fight Capships. Easy


EDIT: added faction of the fig and miner

Dis has a .5 damage modifier against utl and a 1.6 mod against med hull. So using a miner was a bad choice, but comparing IC adv fig vs IC hvy int, 6.6s to kill with 3 Gatt 3, 7 sec to kill with Galv and 2 Dis 3

I quote it again.

Plus you just showed how useless it is even against Ints. If I can kill Ints faster with gat3s, why even bother buying dis3?

Are you kidding? Have you ever tried it out?

The galv let's you start working on the int at 900m or so, Dis 3 also has more range than Gat 3 and a much faster projectile. It doesn't sound like you've actually tried this. It's a good way to fight ints, especially with that IC 20% energy perk.

Nope your wrong. It's a good way to fight int not ints. You will easily run out of energy and then be a sitting duck.
It's no suprise you prefer Dis + Galv's anyway Adept but you have to realise that just relying on renewable resources really slows down efficiency :P

Heh, ok, fight an int then. You can show me how to fight many ints at once with a fig :P

Still my point is: Why buy a tech that brings only marginally advantages against Ints if you can't kill a single utility craft with it and it also sucks vs small hull? You want to forcebomb vs HvyInts? :lol:

to sum up,

Why is everyone comparing dis 3 vs gat 3, when people almost never buy dis 3 unless facing SY?

Because the whole point is seeing whether dis3 is a viable buying option, did you not read the title of this thread?
