 A [[guide:damage_rating_v3#tiers|Tier]]-Equivalent Weapon Group (TEWG) is a group of lower-[[guide:damage_rating_v3#tiers|tier]] weapons whose combined "purpose" (read: damage output) is equal to their host platform's [[guide:damage_rating_v3#tiers|tier]]. Consider, for instance, a [[guide:damage_rating_v3_quick_reference#tiers|Tier]] 10 (Light Starship) vessel like the [[stararmy:starship_classes:yui_7_scout|Yui 7-class Scout]]. The following are just a handful of the combinations that would count as a single TEWG for the [[stararmy:starship_classes:yui_7_scout|Yui 7]]: A [[guide:damage_rating_v3#tiers|Tier]]-Equivalent Weapon Group (TEWG) is a group of lower-[[guide:damage_rating_v3#tiers|tier]] weapons whose combined "purpose" (read: damage output) is equal to their host platform's [[guide:damage_rating_v3#tiers|tier]].
