Those new Experimental Weapon Stabilizers are now available in a Size 3, granting us the ability to mount 5 AX weapons on our ships. Naturally, I stuck an additional Salvation Plasma Charger on my Cutter and proceeded to vaporize a ton of scouts and six Cyclopes in short order.

I also used the occasion to see how the addition of a fifth SPC affects my still-in-development Heartskipping techniques, specifically if the extra damage can reduce the need to rely on the Multi-Hit Bug in certain scenarios or if the extra Distributor Draw would bottleneck my DPS. Thus far it seems as though it does help, so I'm eagerly awaiting the release of the Class 5 Experimental Weapon Stabilizer for a sixth SPC... for maximum stupidity.

If you're confused as to why I'm chugging 4 Heatsinks at a time and dumping DPS into Interceptors rather than blowing off their hearts one at a time, I'm trying to skip over the whole "exert heart then destroy heart" flow of Cyclops fights to vastly reduce the TTK needed to take them out. I've done a considerable amount of research into the topic, and I do have a guide video in the works that'll explain the whole Heartskipping thing that I plan to be releasing in the next few weeks - perhaps sooner if I can stop changing the script every ten seconds 🙃
