General[ | ]

The Piercing NET Torpedo is a modified NET Torpedo that can pierce through multiple ships.

Strategy and Setup[ | ]

Advantages[ | ]

Piercing NET Torpedoes have much greater slowing potential thanks to their piercing ability, allowing them to easily slow down multiple ships in a line even if they are not clustered together. They are an automatic substitute to normal NET Torpedoes as they do not cost any additional mass or resources.

Piercing NET Torpedoes can also surprisingly pack a punch, especially when equipped with AM Warheads etc., with each pierce causing an explosion that damages multiple ships within its area of effect.

Disadvantages[ | ]

Piercing NET Torpedoes have poor accuracy absent the use of Volatile Fuel, similar to the regular version. They are also unable to slow down fleeing ships and are strictly a kiting weapon.

Trivia[ | ]

  • The Piercing NET Torpedo looks identical to NET Torpedo I-III.
  • The Piercing NET Torpedo was actually slated for a release along with the Brutal ECHO Ray as indicated here: [1], but its release was cancelled, most likely because the former would probably be too overpowered.
  • The level II version was finally released to the public as part of the catch-up campaigns on July 11, 2019. In particular, Run 3 of Training Simulation: High Mercenaries rewarded players with three Heretic Cruisers, each equipped with one of this weapon.
  • All versions were released to the public in Haunted on 11/02/2023
  • With its public release the Stasis Potency was reduced from its previous values of 30, 40, and 70% respectively
