Practicing with guns

[Ursus]

I actually tried with VHFs and HFs, but none of them hasn't been good enought:
when using VHF I'm fairly armored but too slow, when using HF I'm fast enought but made of paper, Though I liked HFs best I don't really care about powerplant so I'm mostly searching for a defensive ship that is both hard and fast, energy doesn't matter that much, haven't found it yet though:(

Can't decide which refire kind..... I'm most of the time evading and can't aim cuz I always overshoot when aiming (my aiming goes too much or too little, or goes to a side, never sticks on top of the dot), so which weapon kind would work best for shooting while evading?

If you are going to use missiles regularly then you are pretty much stuck with VHF, since thats the only ship class that can mount class-10 missiles, and the lower-class missiles arent worth the gun slot by themselves.

As for refire, I find that the faster refire rate gives me better targeting feedback--I use the reticle as a suggestion and then look for the impact to dial in the aim--and use the slower refire guns when I'm pretty confident of making a hit. One challenge with this setup is that the house guns aren't always the same speed so sometimes I have to mix in civilian or codename tech to get it all working right (like using Solaris for the 5.0 and Firekiss for the 2.0, since both are 600 ms, and together give me the fast/slow mix). I am also very bad with twitch snubs in general, but you asked for what other people are doing so there it is.

The most helpful thing to my aim has been learning to look for the hit feedback. Watch the target not your weapon. I have also found that weapons with flashy particle effects tend to obscure the hit feedback, so I use the weapon with the simplest particle effect when a choice is available.

BTW, Dubstep is good enough to avoid dying to mines and combos, I die to them all the time.
