====Torpedo types by faction & recommendations==== All the torpedo types below deal Kinetic damage, so refer to the above section on how to protect your ship against that. Otherwise, one must keep in mind the different attributes the torpedoes have: * Photon torpedoes can fire more frequently than any others * Quantum torpedoes do more damage per volley than photons * Plasma torpedoes do less damage per volley than photons, but leave behind a plasma burn DoT; consider running {{ability|Hazard Emitters}} to cleanse it. High Yield Plasma torpedoes are destructible (excluding 23rd century ones); Consider {{ability|Beam Array: Fire at Will}}, {{ability|Cannon: Scatter Volley}}, {{ability|Tractor Beam Repulsors}}, or a {{ability|Point Defense System}} to counter them. * Transphasic torpedoes will partially bypass your shields * Chroniton torpedoes can reduce your flight speed and turn rate * Tricobalt devices will temporarily disable you, but are always destructible. {| class="wikitable" width="100%" ! ! width="14%" | [[File:Photon_Torpedo_Launcher_icon.png|32px]]<br>[[Photon Torpedo Launcher|Photon]]<br>6s reload ! width="14%" | [[File:Quantum_Torpedo_Launcher_icon.png|32px]]<br>[[Quantum Torpedo Launcher|Quantum]]<br>8s reload ! width="14%" | [[File:Plasma_Torpedo_Launcher_icon.png|32px]]<br>[[Plasma Torpedo Launcher|Plasma]]<br>8s reload ! width="14%" | [[File:Transphasic_Torpedo_Launcher_icon.png|32px]]<br>[[Transphasic Torpedo Launcher|Transphasic]]<br>10s reload ! width="14%" | [[File:Chroniton_Torpedo_Launcher_icon.png|32px]]<br>[[Chroniton Torpedo Launcher|Chroniton]]<br>10s reload ! width="14%" | [[File:Tricobalt_Torpedo_Launcher_icon.png|32px]]<br>[[Tricobalt Torpedo Launcher|Tricobalt]]<br>30s reload ! width="14%" | [[File:Thermionic_Torpedo_Launcher_icon.png|32px]]<br>[[Thermionic Torpedo Launcher|Thermionic]]<br>10s reload |- !
