Galaxy on Fire 3D Equipment

In Galaxy on Fire 3D, there are 2 categories of Equipment: Shields and Weapons.

Shields
Shields can be equipped to any ship. They will absorb damage until depleted, protecting your ship’s hull. Shields will recharge overtime.

Weapons
Weapons are classified into 5 types: Laser, Plasma, Photon, Missile, and Thermo.

Only one of each weapon type can be equipped at a time. The ship you own determines which weapon types you can use.

Laser
Laser weapons fire projectiles at an average speed with average damage.

Plasma
Plasma (or “plasm”) weapons fire projectiles at a fast speed with low damage.

Photon
Photon weapons fire projectiles at a slow speed with high damage.

Missile
Missiles are homing projectiles that are launched periodically and will deal very high damage. If the target is an enemy fighter, the missile will stun the target for a few seconds, causing the target to stop moving and randomly rotate.

Thermo
Thermo weapons fire homing projectiles at an inconsistent speed with low damage. Fire rate increases the closer you are to your target.
