The Supernova Focused Plasma Cannon is the specialized Anti-Vehicle turret for the Vanu Sovereignty Magrider. The FPC shells have a smaller blast radius than the PC version of the turret. Direct hits instantly kill non-max infantry.

From all Magrider turrets FPC does the most damage to the armor.

History Edit

• Game Update Number 8
  • A new resist type has been created for AP tanks rounds (and a few other weapons). Tanks have been given a vulnerability to this resist type. This makes these weapons nearly as effective as they were before the above armor increases.
• Game Update Number 9
  • Supernova FPC - increased from 750/700 to 1000/700.
• Performance Update Number 2
  • Direct hit damage increased from 1785 to 1865
• October 30, 2014 Update
  • Bug fix: Magrider Supernova FPC are displaying explosions that are too large
• May 19, 2015 Update
  • Price changed from 1000/700 to 875/599
• December 13, 2017 Hotfix
  • Direct damage from 700 to 750
  • Dev Note: Like with the Vanguard, this moves Sunderer and MBT down one shot to kill, from 8 to 7.
