Armament[edit]
Generalist
Assault rifles are perfect for open engagements, with good damage, above-average range, and high accuracy. Strong for repelling against breachers and sappers, good overall. Skill friendly.
Heavy SMGs are very skill friendly, close-medium ranged weapons. Great damage and accuracy up close, remaining decent at longer distances.
Charge rifles are high-tech versions of assault rifles. Stronger and with high AP, but with shorter range and less accuracy. Powerful weapon in its own right, if not as flexible. Quite expensive.
Specialist - Firearms
Chain shotguns are one of the strongest weapons, but with pitiful range. Perfect for infestations and drop pod raids.
Miniguns fire a massive 25-shot burst. High cost, widly inaccurate, and with a huge cooldown cycle, miniguns are dedicated to crowd-control in stationary setups. (Missed shots can hit other enemies)
LMGs are lighter miniguns, with a 6-shot burst. Can stagger humans, but lower single-target DPS than general options. Decent crowd-control and support weapon.
Sniper rifles have the highest range in the game, but low firerate. Useful for picking off sieges, lone centipedes, etc. Very reliant on shooting skill.
Charge lances have massive per-shot damage and high AP. However, actual damage output is rather low. This makes it a niche weapon, despite its cost and tech level.
Specialist - Explosives
All explosives do not rely on Shooting skill, Manipulation, etc., though are affected by Aiming Time.
EMP grenades are invaluable against mechanoids and turrets, stunning them for 2,200 ticks (36.67 secs).
Smoke launchers prevent turrets from locking on completely. Accuracy penalty for any shooter, player or enemy, so can support melee fighters.
Frag grenades are unwieldy, but can destroy buildings rapidly. Difficult to use against mobile targets; decent against crowds when thrown in an alley.
Doomsday rocket launchers are single-use, but extremely devastating. They cause a massive explosion, able to outright end the largest humanoid raids. Watch for the long warmup.
- Similar advice applies to triple rocket launchers, orbital bombardment targeters, and orbital power beam targeters.
LMG[edit]
AD HOC weapon testing:
- Shooting 10, no traits, no health conditions.
- Time to kill centipedes at range X when they are held in place by a nonviolent pawn. Player damage turned off.
