| Overheating is a complex mechanic with a lot of weird behaviour, just keep the following things in mind to be successful: | Overheating is a complex mechanic with a lot of weird behaviour, just keep the following things in mind to be successful: | ||
| + | * Whenever you overheat a module, there is a random chance that heat damage will occur at the end of its cycle. | ||
| * The longer you overheat something, the higher the chance there is that it will take heat damage. | * The longer you overheat something, the higher the chance there is that it will take heat damage. | ||
| * Heat damage can affect both the module itself and adjacent modules in the same rack (if your MWD has an invul on either side, all 3 have a chance of taking damage when you overheat the MWD). | * Heat damage can affect both the module itself and adjacent modules in the same rack (if your MWD has an invul on either side, all 3 have a chance of taking damage when you overheat the MWD). | ||
| * By turning heat on for a number of cycles and then off for a cycle you can give time for the modules to "cool down" between the heat cycles. For example, on a TCRC contest you may hear the FC ask for Vindicators/Nightmares to heat "3 cycles on, 1 cycle off". This means you turn your overheat on for 3 cycles of the module, then leave it off for 1 cycle to cool down, then back on and repeat. | * By turning heat on for a number of cycles and then off for a cycle you can give time for the modules to "cool down" between the heat cycles.

| - | =====Tips & Tricks===== | + | |
| - | * Cycle your heat - That way your rack can cool down a bit before you start to overheat again. This gives you maximum output of your module. | + | |
| - | * Higher heat on the heat status indicator means your modules will take more heat damage per cycle. | + | |
| - | * Heat damage occurs at the end of an activation cycle. | + | |
| - | * Always bring tons of nanite paste for module repair during warp. Start with: | + | |

| - | * 2000 Units for DPS | + | |
