So having 2 different arbiters in the same fleet works? From my understanding, only 1 would work.

    If you have two of the same only one would work until the other was destroyed. If you have two different modules then both will work.

    It has built in re-targeting however because you do not have laser on them they will not hit subs under water with them.

    Not sure about ONLY ONE WILL WORK, if ur hunting subs with a fleet of 3 Sws and 2 arbs loaded with subs special, I think both arbs would work and force subs to float. Same for the ENG DIST special, I believe both arbs would slow down the fleet but on average ( One special will work but with 2 ranges)

    For the last time, no arbiter module forces subs to the surface. Have you finally understood? That is why I also said: You were confused with the Depth Charge.

    Multiple Arbiters can be put in the same fleet but same type modules WILL NOT STACK you can have engine disrupter and microwave dampener in the same fleet and both modules will work but 2 engine disrupter's will not multiply

    No arbiter module will force subs to float. I suspect you are getting confused with the new rocket which does achieve that. And no two arb modules of the same type will function at the same time as they won't 'stack'.

    Different people will always explain it in different ways. I'll throw another at you to make you more confused. :p

    Yes, you'll be affected by either arbiter if you enter its range. But if they are the same module and you are in range of both of them the module effect is only applied once so they don't stack. Effectively only the effect of one is active.

    Just to note, if they are of different lvls then it's the higher lvl one that'll be taken into account.

    People using different wording... I'm sure by float he means the ability the subsonic cavitator has to force the subs to the surface.

    Yeah. It forces subs to float (aka surface). You should go back to losing in bases. Its what you are good at.

    God almost every post you put up about game mechanics is completely wrong. I am beginning to think your doing it on purpose. Nobody could be that fvcking stupid.
    ...Thus sayeth Magic bunny so it must be true. You are as likable and have as much credibility as what I find on my toilet paper after wiping my **** when I take a "Magic bunny".

    I know MD does, was using my MD arb to help lower players finish the mission they took much less damage when it was present. Don't know if the ones that use friendly fields rather than hostile work the same way or not as I don't have any.
