I stumbled across an idea, but I'm not sure if that would be idiotic or not.
I was lucky enough to research a Chaingun with about 1,400 dps (faster fire rate, more damage and a third modifier). Currently, me and my friends are playing in the Trinium sector just before we get access to Xanion.
The weapon damage is enormous compared to everything we've found or researched so far (the best other weapons go up to about 600 dps).
Is it a feasible idea to make a fighter out of this weapon to multiply our firepower and protect our stations, etc.? Or is this a waste of an otherwise more than usable weapon?
