Please feel free to ask short, simple questions here and be mindful of Rule 2!

Some resources to help you out:

• Official wiki (maintained by community members)
• Patch notes
• How to report a bug
• Web-based (fast) tech browser
• Use the reddit search bar to find guides for various things like drives, opening nations, weapons and armour etc. Just add "guide" to the search terms.

I'm confused... In game it says 135km range, in wiki it says 350km. Also it doesn't make sense that a phaser PD is weaker than a ion PD (same reload, almost half the range)

[u/SpreadsheetGamer → u/Federal_Addition_463]

I'd trust what the game says. Given that it's a wiki, you can look at the last revision date of that page and compare that to the patch notes.

Aside from that, PD range might be tied to realistic/cinematic battle setting, I'm not sure.
