Summary0013889: Gravity missiles OP?
DescriptionI'm playing on normal difficulty and found gravity missiles to basically be the instant win button. At the start of combat I can fire one and if there's no debris it'll track down and hit an enemy flagship and instantly one-shot it. This might be a function of it being still early game, but using them has made many of my fights one button attacks.

Thanks!

* Gravity Missiles are no longer unlockable until 18 years into the game (2 hours). By this point things have escalated to the point where they are a really welcome addition, rather than something that is a completely-OP one-shot-win sort of situation like in the early game.
** Their ammo has also been reduced from 5 to 3.

I'm playing on hard, Burlust start ship, so I have 4 weapon ability slot.
I install 4 Gravity missiles + Tranfer Power.
When the battle starts, I use transfer power immediately, then...
Surprise! Now my missiles is 576000!!! and ignore shields! Even assassin is almost one shot kill! 12 shots!
I can still win most battle with spamming missiles :p
