Triple Burst is a relatively cheap upgrade that allows your [[Weapons Console]] to fire Lasers in a triple burst. Overall, the number of shots per second increases noticeably in exchange for the three shots consuming a total of 500 energy, which is far more than the cost of a Single Burst which only consumes 100. On the other hand, the increase in damage per second can often make the difference in some scenarios where you may be forced to kill a [[Small Ships|Small Ship]] quickly, or try and force an enemy [[Battlecruiser]] to drain more energy on their shields. Compared to [[Penta Burst]], Triple Burst's upgrade, it is a good compromise between damage output and energy efficiency.

Description Fires Left/Right Broadside Lasers

Firing the broadsides lasers, that are unlocked from the upgrades console, is done from the navigation console using the "Fire Left/Right Broadside Laser" ability. There are 2 separate abilities, each used to fire broadsides on different sides of the Battlecruiser.

When firing, the first shot will begin closer to the Battlecruisers front and slowly progress down along the side until it reaches the back. The broadsides always shoot an array of 5 lasers, each laser deals 70 hull/70 shields damage . Broadside laser damage can be increased by upgrading lasers and its energy cost can be reduced by researching Tier 3 offensive.

The difficulty of the Broadside Laser is aiming it, aligning your Battlecruiser such that the target runs parallel to you. This makes broadsides obsolete during chases.
