So I did some testing, and here's the mods I found so far:
So far, they seem confusingly labeled, as they all SEEM to be proc based, but do not list a chance to occur. Someone more thorough than me will have to test that stuff out.
Did anyone find any others? If so post them here, and we can get a good master list going.
- [Snare] to target: reduced turn and flight speed
- [Pvp Res] +5 (I think) Bonus Damage Resistance Rating
- [Pvp Dmg] +3% All Damage
- [Pen] to target: -10 Damage Resistance Rating
- [Over] Grants a chance to overload next beam (and yes, it does seem to come with the customary BO drain.)

[PvPRes] at least doesn't list an effects on the weapon. Where are you taking the effects from?
That was hard to find...I equipped it, and then checked the "info" from right click.
I didn't think they would add PvP-specific modifiers.
I hope they write better tooltips before this is released.
Do you know if it's possible to get multiple copies of these modifiers? for example, [Pen]x2?
As further clarification, this [over] proc activates a 6 second charge of Beam Overload 1 when the beam begins its firing cycle. 6 Seconds is just enough time for the beam to finish the cycle and fire the overload pulse.
This charge is applied to all beams, not just the beam with the [over] proc but will only activate when the [over] weapon fires.
I don't know for sure, but I didn't see any occurances of x2 on any of the new mods in any of my crafted items. And yes, I agree...the current tooltips are currently unacceptable. They HAVE to be placeholders.
But sad face since I invested in some very expensive high quality weapons already, Big hopes for the Proc Modifier they mentioned before

Curious myself as to how this proc impacts faw...does it work with it, cancel it, or simply not activate? I may try and test this later, but the results might be clearer if someone with more [over] beams tries it. I only found one.
EDIT: Ran preliminary (and by no means comprehensive) test in the refueling depot daily. I could not get the [over] proc to trigger while fire at will was in progress. In the downtime between FAWs it seemed to trigger just fine. So early results say you DON'T want to use this on a FAW boat. Probably as it should be.
With 8 weapons...this can be 40% speed and turnrate boost.
The Snare cannon mod adds 4.8% speed and turnrate reduction to your target.
With 8 weapons...this can be 38.4% speed and turnrate reduction.
I wonder why they are both not 5%. I'm assuming you can't get more than one of these mods. Imagine an A2B cruiser with 8 (thrust)x3 beams.
Does the [Over] proc drain 50 weapon power like a normal BO?
If it does, it could work very nicely on a torpedo boat...
When I tested the Thrust and Snare weapons, they did not stack. They had a 4 sec duration and applied again right away (no cool-down). So basically always up while the weapons are firing.
But they don't stack.. one on a firing weapon is all you need.

Thanks, that's not OP.
