They seem to have an awfully large splash radius, and the splash damage is much greater than a direct hit. There's no way that this can't be a bug.
You can get hit and killed from it's splash from over 400gu away? In some people's cases it seems from over 800gu away? How can this be? It will destroy an engineer in 1 hit. That's too powerful for a weapon with range. That kind of destructive power should be reserved for high energy, close range weapons.
A lot of other problems are getting squashed (like bomb damage). I think this one needs looking into. I just don't see the QST's current power as being intentional.

And is it supposed to do more damage with it's splash than with a direct hit? Splash damage is extreme.

yes, direkt hits are supposed to do less damage.
Thats why we detonate them near you.

No.
Its damage is less than the IC or SI.
It does less damage over a 250gu area. Yet that lesser damage is still enough to kill most things below dessy (sometimes).
It is very weak in comparison to the IC or SI. They do far more damage.

The qst can do more damage because he hits more targets, but for the individual, its damage is lower that si or ion.

I fired 3 L10 SI at a stationary UGTO Heavy Supply. I dropped his armour by 17%. A Battle Station fired 3 L10 QST at me at the supply that was cloaked behind me exploded.
Which is weaker?

QST.
Kluth supply is weaker in armor. Hence why you died quicker.

And that's not right. No weapon should be able to destroy an entire ship in 1 shot. Perhaps a scout but I don't even agree with that.
If it has the ability to destroy an undamaged ship in 1 shot it's overpowered. Especially if it can destroy it without hitting it directly. That's just ridiculous.

Moral of this story:
NEVER insult the QST, for it is Jack's precious little baby.

just did a test lvl 10 si 600 from icc destoyer took the shild down 5%
detonatet it near by target dammage shild dammage 0 %
you all must understand, all statements comming from kluth players get met by lies unfounded statements from barkey on how powerfull kluth are and what they can do.
point to a weakness, it get brushed of with "you an noob that cant play" said to a player that played more ugto kluth and icc than most.
so no point in discussing with him
as soon as talk turns to that ugto might be not so weak as barkey want to lead on to and he still want more nerf on the luths he goes off , dont bother.

Ugh, why are you people firing these weapons at armor and shields. Thats not the point of them. A level 10IC fired at an UGTO heavy supply took it down 17% on armor. But firing a level 10IC down the rear of a Torpedo Cruiser with all its rear armor gone took it from 55% hull to 8% hull.
