Mass Driver

"The Mass Driver is a superior Kinetic weapon. It has moderate damage, and longer range than most other weapons."

General
The Mass Driver is a further upgrade from the Gauss Driver, sporting even greater range and damage.

It fires a massive white shell at its target, leaving behind a long blue trail.

Advantages
Mass Drivers have extremely long range, allowing ships equipped with this weapon to kite many ships and snipe enemy bases from afar.

Its damage output allows ships to quickly eliminate any targets that happen to get hit, if you don't mind the poor mass efficiency.

Disadvantages
The Mass Driver echoes the downfalls of the Rail Driver and Gauss Driver, with larger minimum range and the same slow projectile speed. Even with Iridium Magnets V, enemy ships can still dodge its shells rather easily.

Trivia

 * Destroyers equipped with Mass Drivers outrange Plasma Missile Turrets, a very common medium-level base defence.
