Antiproton only? Lame! Where's the variety?

    I found the X's today, all Antiproton ... but what, exactly, does it 'do'. I currently have 9 in Starship Phaser Weapons, so to get equal damage with Antiproton Beams I would have to use quite a chunk of my limited Skill Points to take Starship Antiproton Weapons to 9 to match Phasers. Is it worth doing that, or should I stick with the Phasers & use my points elsewhere.

    Where is the documentation on Antiprotons, considering they are the 'end game' weapons?

    Marks of Exploration are different to the Badges of Exploration 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th & 5th. The 'Mark of Exploration' are rewards for the Daily in B'Tran Cluster (only available from Admiral 3).

    The 'Store' sells these Purples (Antiprotons), for Marks of Exploration. The Beam Weapons I believe are 53 Marks & as you get 5 Marks daily ... seems you will need to do the daily (which is 'Explore 3 Systems in B'Tran Cluster) for 11 days.

    These weapons just don't seem worth it, as we would need to invest our few, precious, Admiral Skill points. I would prefer they put some nice Purple Phasers in there, I'm skilled up for those :p

    Ah, gotcha, not at RA 3. How big a DPS difference is it, between the Phasers from exploration at Sol to the Antiproton from those Marks? Your skills in Phasers might balance it out. Also, whats the "special" of the Antiproton?

    Like all equal-tier beam arrays and banks (cannons too, maybe, but I don't use them) DPS is all listed as the same. These ones you can buy are Very Rare so they have CritD, CritH and Acc. The thing is with Antiprotons, they don't say they have any proc at all.
