	~~''Go all out when you're 90% sure of hitting your target. Otherwise fire in short bursts. With this, you have to make every shot count.''~~		''When I first got to use the Kayser, I stopped using other primary weapons when I had the chance. This gun delivers such a punch that it can actually deplete weak shields and '''still''' have enough power to damage the hull. In fact, for some of the fighters with little hull plating, even a direct hit from four Kayser projectiles can knock their shields from full to null.''

In fact, for some of the fighters with little hull plating, even a direct hit from four Kayser projectiles can knock their shields from full to null. The downside of the Kayser is that it uses up a lot of energy, even more than the Prometheus. This is something that should be taken into account unless you're flying a [[SF Mara (Terrans)\|SOC-retrofitted SF Mara]].''

	''The Kayser is an excellent dogfight weapon if you have a quick, moderately-armored ship. You'll need the extra speed and padding so you can divert some energy to your primaries. ~~As said before, fire in short bursts unless you're sure you'll hit your target (such as against something that's not moving).~~ If you need your speed and all the shielding you can, you should go with something else, such as dual Prom-S.''

If you need your speed and all the shielding you can, you should go with something else, such as dual Prom-S.''


	''It's also worth noting that the [[GTF Loki]] has a decent recharge rate and can support a pair of Kaysers decently well so long as you have at least some power to weapons, although the battery will drain fast otherwise. My other favorite trick is to pair this off with a [[GTW Maxim]] - use short bursts of the Maxim to disable a capital-class target's subsystems from long range, and use your Kaysers to shred enemy fighters. You'll pack enough firepower to make your otherwise overlooked scout craft into a formidable combatant thanks to its high speed!''


	''If you're rushing to defend a convoy or cruiser from giant bombers like the [[SB Seraphim]], use this. Fill in all 8 gun banks of an Erinyes and you'll shread the heaviest bombers to pieces almost as if you were attacking fragile fighters like the [[SF Astaroth]].''


	~~The Kayser is essentially a more balanced [[Banshee]], sacrificing extra shield damage for more hull devastation.}}~~

	''The tech description is a lie. The [[GTB Zeus]] is the only bomber, Terran or Vasudan, that can mount the Kayser. As for performance: The Kayser is superior to every gun, standard or dogfight, except for the Mekhu HL-7D.
