Upon looking at, say, the Omnidirectional Phaser Beam Array, I see it says you can only equip one per ship.

Does that only apply for per each damage type, or does that apply to omnidirectional beam arrays in general Basically, what Im asking is, would I be able to equip one Omni beam array of each damage type (Phaser, Disruptor, Plasma, Tetryon, Polaron, Antiproton) onto a ship I would love to be able to do this to have a giant disco ball of death bring all 6 arrays to bear on a target at once.

However, there are two non-crafted omni beams available, and while these are also labeled as one per ship, they are each their own categories; thus equipping them allows for a total of 3 omni beams on the same ship: - The Ancient Omni AP, awarded by the mission Sphere of Influence (to note, this will also gain a set bonus which grants 10 AP damage when used with the Obelisk warp core, awarded from the same mission) - The Kinetic Cutting Beam, purchased from the Omega reputation system (to note, this gets set bonuses with the Assimilated Console andor the Omega Plasma Torpedo) - Beam 3, obviously, would be a crafted omni beam.

In order to match energy types, you would probably want your crafted beam to be AP as well.).

No disco ball of death for you unless you go arrays.

It actually kind of works now with beam spire consoles and plasma embassy consoles).

The Ancient Omni does less damage than normal Beam Arrays, though, and also loses a Mod to gain the Arc.

Breadandcircuses last line surprised me, but I went to check.

Sure enough, crafted AP omnis have about 13 better damage numbers than the Ancient (though I am looking at upgraded-to-XIV ones; at XII they may be slightly closer).

They do get the same default mods though - Acc Arc Dmg - so its not because of that.

Still, my point stands - the Ancient is considered a category all its own, so you can do 3x omni by using crafted, ancient, KCB.

This results in being able to do an all-forward beam build on any ship that has 3 or less aft weapons slots.

Its sad that you can only do this for antiproton though (2 AP 1 cutting).

Want any other damage type Taste the rainbow Given how expensive they are to craft compared to turrets (which can be crafted at mk 2 to get the mods you want after a few dozen tries), it makes no sense to limit the beam turrets to 1 crafted per ship.

A full boat of Crafted Omnis would be ridiculously powerful, especially since it would remove all need to position for B:FAW.

At least the Ancient OmniCrafted OmniKinetic Cutting Beam combo still keeps us limited to a max of 250 degree effective arcs on most ships, with the Ancient Omni doing lower damage and the Kinetic Cutting Beam being restricted from using B:O and B:FAW.

It appears that 2 Ancient omnis can be slotted if 1.) is left in its original form, and 2.) the second is upgraded to UR.

Its not optimal for DPS over the quotes suggestion, but shows that you can potentially do it.
