content: I've had to do this purposely in a game before. My missiles did too little damage and had such a low rate of fire, the enemy's shields would be recharged before the next salvo hit. So, starting at max range, I had to fly with my missiles to get 4-5 salvos stacked up on top of each other by the time they got to the target. This was an old space sim MMO from the early 2000's that's been long since shut down.
