I'm new and stuff. As a fresh set of eyes I'm noticing that the wiki is out of date so I'm taking a moment to maintain the wiki for the people who come after me.

Construction Access

Construction access pertains to the Vacant Office and Auxiliary Base Construction. Vacant Office B and Construction Area

These spaces are rarely visited and are therefore targets for clandestine individuals. The Curator and Engineering can use these spaces to set up projects.

Auxiliary Base Construction has a specific use in building a room to send to Lavaland. If you're the Curator you can do this to start your adventuring career. Be sure to coordinate with the shaft miners so that your base is placed optimally.

Curator's Beacon is not covered in Job Page

Heroic Beacon "To summon heroes from the past to protect the future."

Transcluson Test

There are times when running away from a fight is not an option. The combat system is robust but functional, and can feel weird at times. Sometimes your clicks are ignored. Sometimes you suddenly realise your melee weapon is no longer in your hand. Sometimes your ranged shots bounce off your target. Sometimes you even suddenly die without knowing why. Some people reduce it to "click spaceman until horizontal", but there is a lot more to it. This guide may only cover some basics, but its intention is to help you win fights (or successfully commit murder as antag), even against veteran players.

The practical part this guide was written april 2019. If you are reading it much later, some things may be outdated.

Basics to Combat

Some good to know basics about the combat system.

Health System

Get familiar with how health works. Some important bits are:

• You have 200 max hp.
• If you have over 40 total damage of any types you get slowed down until healed.
• After losing around 100 hp (depending on mood) you enter softcrit. All you can do in this state is slowly crawl, and whisper. If this happens you have probably lost.
• After losing 150 hp you enter a hardcrit state. In this state you will be unconscious and slowly die. If you whisper you will say your last words and succumb to death.

Damage Zone

You can target specific damage zones by using the Numpad Keys. Each limb has its own pool of hitpoints. Hurting the head, legs or arms with enough brute damage can cut them off when using a sharp weapon. There are a few specific items that do certain things when aimed at certain zones. If you are unsure what to aim at, then targeting chest or head are the safest choices. Limbs are capped and will stop taking damage if hurt enough, sometimes making you waste damage by hitting them.

Movement Speed

To keep an upper hand in a fight, speed is very helpful. Stop or slow your enemy down with damage, bola, slipping them, other tricks or many other methods and they will be easier to hit with both melee and ranged weapons. There are also ways to speed yourself up, such as Nuka Cola from drink vendors.

Stuns

A fight is typically won by either stunning your enemy, which lets you cuff them, or by hurting them to a crit state or worse. Learn what the different types of stuns do. An accessible stunning weapon can be made by crafting a stunprod . Also note, when the wiki or players talk about "stuns", they typically mean both the paralyze and the stun status effects. Stun times varies depending on item used, but are usually around 4-15 seconds. You can reduce stun times on yourself in several ways, such as with certain chemicals, including from smoking nicotine. Some stuns are conditional, such as the paralyze from the flash , which only works if the target has no sunglasses or similar protection. If your target is immune to stuns, you will usually have to damage them instead.

Cuffing

If you are unsure if your target is valid or not, you should opt for a non-lethal takedown. Do this by somehow stunning or knocking out your target and then cuffing it. If you do not have access to handcuffs , you can easily craft cablecuffs by activating cable coils in your hand. Cuff a person by holding cuffs in your active hand, and then clicking your target. Grab your target by ctrl+clicking it (works even while cuffing). Switch to help intent so you can move around easier with the cuffed person. The target is now completely under your control as long as you don't stand still long enough for them to uncuff themself, and as long as they don't get bumped out of your grab. Remove cuffs from yourself by resisting. Remove cuffs from someone else by clickdragging their sprite onto yours and then click the cuffs in the menu that pops up.

Melee Combat

On /tg/station, you interact with a person in melee by being next to them and clicking on their sprite (and not on the tile they are standing on/moving towards). When your interaction connects, something will happen depending on what your intent is and which weapon you are wielding. Due to technical limitations, some clicks will not connect, so what you should do is spamclick that target while moving around and trying to avoid being clicked yourself. Every time you successfully attack (or hug) someone in melee there is a cooldown before you can do it again. The cooldown is usually less than a second.

Unarmed Combat

This guy just broke into your department and whipped out an energy sword and energy crossbow. You are unarmed. You are at a huge disadvantage. What can you do? Let's say he somehow missed a shot with the bow, due to you dodging behind a machine or wall, and is now coming towards you with the e-sword. You have have a few options.

Shoving

You enable disarm intent and read here about how shoving works. You can try to lure your enemy into a spot where you can shove him against an object, making him drop both weapons. Then shove him one more time on the ground to paralyze him for 4 seconds. Then you must quickly left click his own dropped energy sword to pick it up. Kill him with it.

Grabbing

You enable grab intent . For this to work your enemy must either be temporarily stunned or standing still and not paying attention. First you click your target once to passive grab. Keep spamclicking him, and if he doesn't move or "resist" to break out of your grab, you will grab him aggressively. This will make you stun the target for a very short moment, making him drop any held items. Either pick up the dropped energy sword and kill him with it, or continue to tabling.

Tabling

When having an aggressive grab on the enemy, you can quickly "table" him. Do this by clicking any table within your melee range, while still on grab intent. This will instantly transport him to the top of the table, and paralyze him for 4 seconds. If you are very fast you can attempt to cuff him on the table. Or you can permanently keep him stunned by spamclicking him with grab to aggressive again, and clicking the same table again. Over and over. You have time to deal a single punch on harm intent after each tabling. If you are on the receiving end of this treatment, all you can do is yell for help and spam "resist", which will make you attempt to break out of the grab (with a 2 second cooldown or so). Resisting will not work the 4 seconds you are paralyzed, so your enemy must mess up the timing for you to escape. Tabling on a glass table will stun for a longer duration, but will break the table.

Strangling

If having an aggressive grab, you can reinforce your grab two more times by clicking the target on grab intent . The level 3 grab makes you grab his neck (deals no damage). Level 4 makes you start strangling him, causing suffocation damage. This is a slow process, and the target can attempt to break free by spamming "resist" or trying to move away. The target has 5% chance to break out per try (down from ~30% on aggressive grab) and takes 8-15 stamina damage every failed attempt. Strangling is rarely used unless the target is already cuffed. The target can call for help while being strangled.

Throwing Spacemen

If you have an aggressive grab, you can also activate "throw" mode with R. Then left click somewhere to throw the grabbed person in that direction. Unlike with tabling, you must throw the person away from you. Otherwise the thrown spaceman will hit yourself and paralyze you both. Throwing him on top of a glass table will paralyze him long enough to cuff him. Throwing a person or a monkey corpse at someone is a reliable method to paralyze someone for a moment. Throwing him at a wall or reinforced wall will paralyze him for a moment as well. Throwing him at an airlock will make it open, if he is wearing a valid ID.

Punching and kicking

You enable harm intent . Punching does a small and random amount of stamina and brute damage. What you're hoping for though, is the random chance for a punch to cause a short knockdown. Keep clicking your target with punches until this happens, then quickly enable disarm intent and shove the target on the ground to paralyze him for 4 seconds. Then quickly pick up the dropped energy sword and kill him with it (you know the drill). If the target has no weapon to pick up, you can keep clicking the prone target with fists to kick him instead, which simply deals 1.5-15 brute damage.

Curbstomping

To perform a curbstomp you need to meet several criteria for both yourself and the target. The criteria are as follows, the first being that you need to target the head, The second being that you must be on harm intent , The third is that your target must be lying down and the fourth is that you must be on the same tile as them. once all of the criteria are met then click and drag your sprite onto theirs, this will then cause you to wait for several seconds before finally performing the curbstomp. This is an effective finisher for enemies already in a crit state as it does 36 brute damage to the head.

Groinkicking

The groinkick is very similar to the curbstomp but has a conditional damage set which causes characters which are male to take 25 damage as opposed to 15 for their female counterparts. This is performed by following the same process described above with the curbstomp. The steps are the same but however requires you to target the groin as opposed to the head. so the steps will be as follows, Harm intent , Target groin , target must be lying down and you must be on the same tile as your target. Once these are met, click and drag your sprite to theirs wait for a few seconds and you will kick them in the groin.

Using Melee Weapons

Fighting with melee weapons works similarly to fighting unarmed. You click the enemy while holding a melee weapon in your hand and you will deal damage to them with that weapon. The differences to unarmed fighting is that there is usually no randomness to damage dealt, and intent usually doesn't matter. There are exceptions though. Stun batons and stunprods will only deal damage when on harm intent . Otherwise they will stun harmlessly. To defeat someone by only using a melee weapon, you should generally use as strong weapon as possible to give the target as little time as possible to counter you. Most melee weapons can't stun, so there is risk involved unless you stun your target before you start whacking.

Ranged Combat

Ranged projectiles in this game use pixel perfect movement. Shoot by having a ranged weapon in your hand, and clicking a target tile. The projectile will hit the first object in its path, but will pass over people who are paralyzed, sleeping or dead unless you click directly on their sprites. Sometimes when you're running your weapon will randomly not fire when clicking. This can be due to how the game engine works, so just keep spamclicking until you fire.

Ranged Intents

There are some differences to firing guns between different intents:

• On help , disarm and grab intents you can fire at a target point blank by clicking directly on them. On harm intent you will instead do a melee strike with your gun, unless you aim behind your target.
• On harm intent you can fire two guns at the same time. However, you will also have a random spread to your accuracy.

Throwing

This is a safe way to take down a target. Pick nearby items up and throw them at the enemy. Most items deal the same damage when thrown as when used as a melee weapon. Some, such as spears , will deal even more. First pick an item up, then activate "throw" with the R key. Then click where you want to throw the object. You can pick up some chairs or stools for throwing, by dragging their sprites onto yours. Throwing, like ranged combat, uses pixel perfect movement, which means you can throw in any direction. You can also craft a bolas to throw at enemies, which will slow them down until they resist out of it. Thrown objects do not count as ranged shots and can not be reflected by sleeping carp users. You can counter having items thrown at you by activating "throw" yourself (with R). If your active hand is empty, you will then capture the next object thrown at you, instead of getting hit by it.

Embedding

Some items, such as the spears , has a chance to embed into a body part when they are thrown at someone. An embedded item deals additional brute damage and bleeding until the item is removed. Some embedded items can automatically fall out after a while. Else you remove an embedded item from yourself by examining your body, and then clicking the underlined string of text that appears in the chat window. You remove embedded items from others with surgery. Many items, such as glass shards and metal rods can only embed from higher than normal throw speed, such as from explosions. Some more items that can embed from normal throws are: Energy sword , combat knife and throwing star .

Execution With Guns

If you target mouth , and use any intent except harm , you will aim for the target's head with a slow progress bar, and fire once it finishes (if the target is still in melee range). Mostly useful for roleplay. It also deals 10 times more damage.

Cheap Tricks

There many tricks to winning a fight. These are only a select few of them:

• Aim for eyes and stab multiple times with a screwdriver make the target blind. Only works if target has no eyewear.
• Alt-click a Fire Extinguisher to subtly empty its water on the floor below you. People chasing you may slip.
• Carry a bottle or beaker of water. Select harm intent and click on ground with it to splash the water on the ground, making people slip.
• Drag a soap behind you to slip people.
• Drag an open locker behind you. People accidentally clicking the locker will put their weapon in it.
• If you know what you're doing (or is an antag), learn how to make and utilize bombs.
• You can knock people down a couple of seconds by aiming at their head on harm intent , and hitting them with a bottle of booze.

There is much more to learn than this. Some things must come from experience, or from observing others. Good luck out there, and don't hate yourself if you fail. Just try again another round. What follows below is a table of some common, or just robust, items that may help you win. Much of it is outdated, so don't rely on the numbers.

Weapons

This is not a list of how much damage each item does, just some of the best items and short notes on how to best use them. If you feel something should be added, please go ahead and do so, if it's robust enough. This is in alphabetical order. While most items in the game can be used as a makeshift weapon, actual dedicated weapons are far more effective in harming, subduing or killing a target.

Offense

Melee Weapons

Most station personnel lack access to proper firearms, thus if push comes to shove most people will have to rely on the old fashion method of melee combat to deal with a attacker.

lmost any object on the station can be used as a makeshift melee weapon, however some are better than others.

Icon	Item	Damage	How to Acquire	Faction Usage	Notes
	Broken Bottle	15 Brute when breaking 9 Brute after broken	Get a bottle from the Booze-o-mat, smash it on someone.	Civilian	Has to be broken first, to break simply change intent to harm then smash it against someone; by aiming for the head you will also knock them down if they are not wearing protective head gear. Smashing it spills its contents over the target so you could use it as a chemist to knock out your opponent, by filling it with chloral, and then beat them to death with it. Another reason why traitor Chemist is so great. If the bottle's contents are flammable (booze bottles, for instance) you can follow up by setting your opponent on fire.
	Butcher's Cleaver	15 Brute	Hack the Dinnerware vending machine.	Civilian: Kitchen Staff	Somewhat hard to get. Security will likely have their suspicions as the only reason to have this over the normal knife is its robusting power. Works as a ghetto circular saw in surgery.
	Circular Saw	15 Brute	Operating Theatre Robotics Lab Autolathe	Civilian: Medical/Research	One of the most robust things you can find. Sadly they are rather uncommon and departments like to hang onto theirs, and security likes to take them. You can print one at the Cargo Bay's autolathe, if it has metal to make it.
	Death Nettle	Up to 30 Burn. Damage depends on potency. Loses a random amount of damage after each hit.	Growing them at Hydroponics	Civilian: Botany	A red nettle that deals high damage and can paralyze. Requires gloves to wield, lasts for several hits (damage reduced with each hit) until they disintegrate (i.e. the evidence disappears). Experienced Botanists can make these. At low potency they are mostly a joke but at high potency they are as strong as energy swords.
	Fire Extinguisher	10 Brute	Emergency Fire closets and lockers, emergency storage rooms	Civilian	Found across the station so they're aren't in short supply. Unlikely to be taken by security if they search you. They are also very useful if you get spaced, spray in opposite direction of where you want to go, and you'll fly away. With a limit of 50 units, that's 10 squirts using 5 per spray.
	Air/Oxygen/Anaesthetic tank	10 Brute	Emergency lockers E.V.A. Toxins lab Atmospherics Operating Theatre (for anaesthetic tanks).	Civilian	Found across the station so they're aren't in short supply. Air and oxygen tanks are unlikely to be taken by security if they search you. You can use it for internals while having it in your hand (though it is recommended you don't use an anaesthetic tank).
	Fire Axe	5 Onehand 24 Twohand	Bridge and Atmospherics.	Civilian: Atmospherics/Command	Most robust thing you can get from the Station. Has to be held with two hands to be used properly. Security will likely take it and it's a large object. Best to store this on your back. They are also rare, one is in Atmos and the other is in the Bridge, good luck breaking in before it gets taken. Can be used as a crowbar (while wielded) on unpowered doors, and is strong enough to break powered ones.
	Hatchet	12 Brute 15 thrown	Hydroponics.	Civilian: Botany	Botanists use these to chop wood, they also are good at chopping limbs. Easy to conceal, and if you're a Botanist, security probably won't care if you're carrying one. Throwing it at someone deals 15 damage. Bonus points for finishing off an escaping enemy this way, Navajo-style. Works as a ghetto circular saw in surgery.
	Kitchen Knife	10 Brute	Kitchen Autolathe.	Civilian	Useful if you're the Chef, as Security are unlikely to give a single shit if they see you with it. Works as a ghetto scalpel in surgery. Can be hidden in boots.
	Null Rod	18 Brute (base)	Chapel and on the Chaplain.	Civilian: Chaplain	Similar to the Circular Saw, but there's only one of them, and the Chaplain tends to keep it on him. It can destroy runes and protect against some cult magics. Can be transformed into a variety of religious weapons, with different characteristics.
	Pickaxe	15 Brute	Mining Dock and Mining Station.	Civilian: Supply	Fairly robust, but it's very big, so it can only be stored on the back or belt slot. Miners barely use these anymore in favor of the Kinetic Accelerator, so it's mostly seen on the Gulag. Mining drills and jackhammers all do the same amount of damage as a pickaxe.
	Compact Pickaxe	10 Brute	Mining Dock and Mining Station, in miner's equipment closets.	Civilian	Does less damage, but can fit in a backpack.
	Survival Knife	15 Brute	Miner's explorer backpacks, Miner's explorer boots	Civilian: Supply	Miners spawn with a very robust knife that can fit in their pockets or boots.
	Scalpel	10 Brute	Operating Theatre Autolathe.	Civilian: Medical/Research	Despite being not as good at the saw, this is still quite robust. Jabbing people in the eyes occasionally stuns them and eventually blinds them, limiting their ability to run. Best part is you can have it your pocket and if you have access to this (not counting autolathe produced scalpels) security wouldn't care, unless it's covered in blood, of course. But even then they might assume you're just a bad doctor.
	Glass Shard	5 Brute 10 thrown	Anywhere there's glass (read: everywhere).	Civilian	Extremely easy to obtain, just break a glass/reinforced glass pane or climb a glass table. Works also as a ghetto scalpel. You need gloves to hit stuff with it without cutting yourself, but you can still throw it.
	Screwdriver	5 Brute	Most storage rooms and Engineering.	Civilian	Its robustness doesn't come from the damage, but from its thin, pointed edge. Anyone not wearing glasses can have their eyes stabbed out causing them lose sight. Doesn't make them mute so they'll still scream, or might even fight back before you have a chance to blind them enough.
	Surgical Drill	15 Brute	Operating Theatre Autolathe.	Civilian: Medical/Research	Only found in Surgery. Only used for dental implants, so it'll barely be noticed if it goes missing.
	Toolbox	12 Brute	Most storage rooms and Engineering.	Civilian	Rather common. Althought it deals a moderate amount of damage, it's a bulky item, so you'll have to hold it.
	Welding tool	3 Brute when off 15 Burn when on	Most storage rooms and Engineering.	Civilian	When switched on, it deals a robust amount of burn damage, but consumes fuel after every hit.
	Syndicate Toolbox	15 brute 18 brute when thrown	Syndicate uplink and the Derelict.	Syndicate	Worth more for emergency tools than anything. Expect security to come cracking down unless they know you've taken a trip to the derelict.
	Spear	10 brute in Onehand 18 brute when wielded/Twohand 20 brute when Thrown	Made by yourself	Civilian	A haphazardly-constructed yet still deadly weapon of ancient design. You can attach an explosive to it. If you attach one, Alt-clicking it will allow you to set a war cry when attacking with it.
	Chainsaw	13 Brute when off 21 Brute when on	Made by yourself	Civilian	You can surgically replace an arm with a chainsaw. Can break an airlock down.
	Baseball bat	10 Brute	Made by yourself	Civilian	Knocks back targets on hit.

like makeshift melee weapons, these melee weapons are usually more reliable and robust, however most station personnel can't get access to them, as well as these weapons being very noticeable.

Icon	Item	Damage	How to Acquire	Faction Usage	Notes
	Cult Blade	30 Brute	Cult magic	Cultists	Those who aren't Cultists suffer from wielding this blade...MENTALLY. Aside from being very robust, it is Cult exclusive. Expect a wave of batons lasers when Security sees you holding this.
	Energy Sword	3 Brute Off 30 Brute On	Through a Syndicate Uplink	Syndicate/Nanotrasen	Despite being very strong in melee combat, its activation is loud, very obvious to those around you, and a very big target for people looking for free gear. It also counts as a shield when active! Aim for the legs or arms. Use a multitool on one to turn on RAINBOW MODE (permanently). TURN IT ON BEFORE YOU USE IT
	Double-bladed Energy Sword	3 Brute Off 34 Brute On	Through a Syndicate Uplink	Syndicate/Nanotrasen	Has to be held with two hands while on. Four extra damage may not seem much, but it means one less hit to crit an unarmored opponent. When wielded it gives a 100% chance to deflect energy-based shots, like tasers and lasers. Like the energy sword, its activation is very loud. To create this, you must combine two Energy Swords together of any color (hold one in each hand and click the other sword) or receive it in a Syndicate Bundle. You cannot put two holodeck swords together. Use a multitool on one to turn on RAINBOW MODE (permanently). TURN IT ON BEFORE YOU USE IT For obvious balance reasons, hulks cannot use these.
	Stun Baton	10 Brute	Security Office and Security Officer's backpack.	Security	Very robust if you know how to use it properly. Only the security force can get these easily. Deploy liberally, but stow for transport.
	Billy club	10 Brute 15 stamina	Security Office and Security Officer's backpack.	Security	Used to bash heads and break down defenses. Usually used as a more lethal alternative for the stunbaton. Deploy liberally, but stow for transport.
	Katana	40 brute	Possible loot from necropolis chests in Lavaland and in the ninja bundle.	Mining and Traitors	Real katanas are very robust, but only miners or traitors have a reasonable chance of finding them.
	Telescopic Baton	10 Brute	Heads of Staff's backpacks.	Command	Like the stunbaton but retractable, with a shorter stun time, but the same capability for bludgeoning. Heads of Staff start their shift with one in their backpack. Be sure to extend it before using!
	Ion sabre	10 Brute off	Captain's, Executive Officer's belt	Command	An exceedingly rare sword, that uses experimental Ion technology to stun anyone on the wrong end of it. Only given to high ranking officers with a proven track record.
	Officer's Sabre	15 Brute	Captain's locker.	Captain	A sabre intended for ceremonial uses. Comes with its own sheath. Can block melee attacks and has good armor penetration. Surprisingly sharp for a fashion accessory.
	Combat Knife	20 Brute	Can be ordered through Cargo.	Security	Very robust for its size.

Ranged Weapons

Although often hard to get, these can put you at a huge advantage. Not just from being outside melee range, but also by shooting through windows and destroying walls. Guns rely on a stock of ammo, and those are hard to get, while energy guns use recharging units or just recharge by themselves.

Sidearms (Ballistic)

Ballistic weapons are the most common kind of ranged sidearms utilised by Nanotrasen security forces on warships.

Icon	Item	Ammo	Capacity	Damage & Effects	How to Acquire	Faction Usage	Notes
	Desert Eagle	.50	7 Rounds	60 Brute	Summon guns, can spawn in the secure contraband locker on metastation.	Nanotrasen	Comes in three tasteful variants. Normal, gold and camo gold. Hope for the gold gun. 7 Rounds of pure mlg; spare ammo available nowhere.
	Mateba	.357	7 Rounds	60 Brute	Syndicate Uplink and summon guns.	Nanotrasen	All in all the syndicate revolver, but for death squad and emergency response team officers.
	Revolver	.357	7 Rounds	60 Brute	Syndicate Uplink and summon guns	Syndicate	Security (or generally anyone) will be quick to scream 'TRAITOR!' if they see you with one. You can get more ammo from hacked autolathes. Serve with a side of grenade to finish your foe off for good.

Only one starts on the station and the Bartender likes to keep it in case of bar fights. Can be sawn off with a circular saw (make sure it's not loaded). A sawn-off shotgun will fit in your backpack. To load shells, simply use the full shell on the shotgun. Use it in hand to eject the shells.
	Riot Shotgun	12 Gauge shells	6 Shells	Depends on shell	The Armoury and summon spells.	Security	A uncommon shotgun, typically only used in emergencies by Security or when facing someone with ranged energy protection. Is the only main shotgun on the station at round start sans the bartender's double barrel.

Shotgun Shells

• Buckshot: Shoots 6 pellets dealing 9 brute damage each, for a maximum of 54. Quite effective at medium range.
• Slug: Shoots a single powerful projectile, dealing 60 damage on hit. Does not have the best armor penetration.
• Rubber Shot: Shoots 6 pellets dealing 3 brute and 9 stamina damage each. More effective at stopping a target, but stamina damage fades with time.
• Beanbag: Shoots one single beanbag, dealing 5 brute and 55 stamina damage. The bartender uses these by default.
• Stun Shell: Shoots an electrode that confuses targets on hit, and applies sleep to confused targets.
• Incendiary Slug: Shoots a single projectile that leaves a fire trail and ignites the target, on top of 5 brute damage.
• Shotgun Dart: A single dart that can contain up to 30 units of chemicals that'll be injected on hit.
• Technological Shells: Unloaded technological shells can be made in a Security Techfab. See here for the recipes.
  • Meteorshot Shell: A single powerful projectile, deals 20 brute damage and stuns for 2 seconds. Pushes back machinery and people on hit.
  • Pulse Slug: Works like one of the deathsquad's pulse rifle shots, dealing 40 burn damage and damaging or destroying walls and machinery.
  • Dragonsbreath Shell: Like the incendiary slug, but shoots a spread of 4 burning pellets. Deals less direct damage.
  • FRAG-12 Slug: An explosive shell that knocks down targets and causes an explosion where it hits, on top of dealing 25 brute damage.
  • Ion Scatter Shell: Shoots a spread of 4 ion bolts, each of which ions a single target instead of the 3x3 area hit by normal ion rifles.
  • Laser Scatter Shell: Shoots a spread of 6 laser beams with up to 60 total damage.
• Improvised Shotgun Shell: Shoots a spread of 1-8 metal shards, capable of doing a total of 60 damage at. The spread and the distance travelled by these shards are quite random, so the shell is best used point-blank. These shells are unique in the fact that they are craftable, but not from Unloaded Tech Shells. See here for the crafting process.

Longarm (Energy)

	Energy Gun	Energy	10 Lasers, 20 Disable	20 Burn Stun	Armory, energy weapons crate, HoP/Captain lockers.	Security	A versatile energy weapon. Best thing is to disable a target and then either handcuff (for arresting) or spam the other remaining shots at them on kill mode (for murder).
	Advanced Energy Gun	Energy	10 (recharges over time)	20 Burn/Stun target	Security protolathe once researched first.	Nanotrasen	Using advanced wizardry SCIENCE, a mini nuclear generator has been fitted into this gun to provide unlimited shots! Researched from R&D. Cannot be used in recharging units. Unreliable models may emit radiation, take caution.
	Antique Laser Gun	Energy	12 (recharges over time)	20 Burn	Captain's Quarters.	Nanotrasen	The prized weapon of the Captain, and the target of many enemy forces. Similar to the laser gun except it's self-recharging. They just don't make guns like they used to.

Ordered via syndicate uplink, costs 10 telecrystals, only available to Nuclear Agents.	Syndicate	Think of it as a spray bottle. Except each spray is three tiles wide and can travel the entire screen. Generally kept away from players due to the potential of the lubepocalypse.
	Flamethrower	Gas of your choice	Depends on tank pressure	Depends on the gas	Made by yourself or with a hacked Autolathe	Civilian	You are a firestarter! Allows for creative gas mixes if you know your atmos. An area denial tool, generally useful for making small areas uninhabitable for people, not so useful when trying to kill someone, as it's easy to run away.
	Syringe Gun	Syringes	1 Syringe	6 Brute + 15u chemicals	Medbay Storage.	Civilian	In fact, this is very robust. Think of it as a ranged hypospray.
	Rapid Syringe Gun	Syringes	6 Syringes	6 Brute + 15u chemicals	R&D Lab once researched first.	Nanotrasen	See the syringe gun, but take into account it holds six syringes. Can be made through researching them, and only costs metal and glass to make. This gun gives you the power to fuck over six people at once! First syringe in is first out.

Admin Only Weapons

These weapons are currently restricted to admin spawn only, some may also appear in 'summon gun' events during a Wizard round however.

Icon	Item	Ammo	Capacity	Damage & Effects	How to Acquire	Faction Usage	Notes
	Taser	Energy	5 Stun, 20 Disable	Stun target	Admins.	Security	Previously security's sidearm of choice, replaced by disablers, which were replaced by glocks.

	Gyrojet Pistol	.75	8 Rounds	74 Brute from direct hit 24 from a tile away explosion (-1, 0, 2)	Summon guns exclusive.	Admin	Delivers an explosion with every shot, plus you can afford to be less accurate with it, as the explosion hits 3x3, so it's great against groups.
	Instakill Rifle	None	Infinite	Infinite	Admins	Admin	Flat out disintegrates all living targets. Only likely to be encountered if someone particularly likes or hates you.

Defense

To be good at combat, you must be able to survive an encounter with anything; Nuclear Operatives, Wizards, Assistants and such. While some may say that the best defense is a robust offense (which can be true in some cases), knowing how to protect yourself is a vital skill needed to be robust.

Stuns and Incapacitation

Having the ability to stun at a moment's notice will protect you from getting robusted quite often (as long as you don't get stunned first).

Icon	Item	Type of Stun	How to Acquire	Notes
	Stun Baton	Stun Duration 14	Security	Not being security, and having this out, is likely to land you in the brig.
	Stunprod	Stun Duration 10	Made by yourself	Having this is a quick way to get robusted by security. Doesn't fit in backpacks, but can be carried on your back.
	Telescopic Baton	Duration 5	Be a Head of Staff	Not being a head of staff and having one of these is yet another way to incur security's ire.
	Disabler	Stamina damage	Aetherwhisp Armory. Disabler Crate from Cargo.	A non-lethal type of laser that deals Stamina Damage, which has the same slowing/debilitating effects of normal damage, without actually harming. Heals on its own over time.
	X24 Tazer	Stun	On security officers, ordered from Cargo	A stun weapon developed by CzankCorp. It fires a short ranged, but powerful electrode that stuns targets on hit. Has a range of two tiles. Can hold two cartridges: one in the gun, and one in cartridge. Has a small chance to cause heart attacks
	Flash	Stun Duration 8 stuns cyborgs	Security, Bridge, Sec Checkpoint, Tech Storage	Cyborgs are vulnerable to this method of stunning. Eye protection, such as sunglasses or welding helmets prevents you from being stunned this way.
	Chemicals	Depends on chemical	Chemistry	Typically used with a syringe gun, Hypospray, or Smoke Grenade. Some chemicals, like Chloral Hydrate, or Morphine, can hold targets still for some time, while others can be very harmful.
	Flashbang	Stun Duration varies with distance. Max 10	Security	Very good for stunning a whole room. Not wearing ear protection will make you deaf for awhile. Wearing both sunglasses and a bowman headset makes you immune to these.
	Laser Pointer	Blinds humans Stuns cyborgs Duration 5-10	Lawyer, Curator, Research Director	Has a chance of blinding people and cyborgs, like a Flash; a fully upgraded laser pointer has a 100% chance.
	Resonant Shriek	Duration 5-10	Being a changeling	Humans become deaf and confused.
	Cult Stun	Stun Duration 15 + 15 duration silence	Being a cultist and making one.	Works on cyborgs. Blocked by null rod.
	Beepsky	Stun Duration 14	Made in robotics.	Attacks those set to arrest, and, depending on the mode, with weapons out without permission.
	ED-209	Stamina damage	Made in robotics.	Attacks those set to arrest, and, depending on the mode, with weapons out without permission.

Icon	Counter	Type of Stun	How to Acquire	Notes
	Hulk	Any	Genetics	Hulks don't get stunned and don't fall ever. Even space lube doesn't make them fall, though they do slip.
	Eye protection	Flashes	Cargo and Engineering for welding helmets, Security for sunglasses.	Doesn't do anything with the stun itself; rather, it protects you from flashing

Damage Prevention

A few items, when used, can randomly completely block damage.

Icon	Item	How to acquire	Protection	Notes
	Riot Shield	Armory	Blocks melee and projectile attacks to the chest.	Note that attacks aimed at other parts of the body (commonly the head) may miss, and have a chance of hitting another part instead, usually your chest.
	Energy Combat Shield	Nuke ops	Blocks most melee and ranged projectiles	Works just like a riot shield, except with a 100% chance to deflect all lasers and energy shots, making it very robust. Can also be turned off to fit in your pocket.
	Reactive Teleport Armor	Research Director's Office	Teleports you randomly if you're hit.	It could end badly if you get spaced due to this, but it'll still improve your odds of surviving.
	Energy Sword	Syndicate Uplinks	Blocks most projectiles	Needs to be turned on to work. Counts as a shield just like the riot shield.

Armor

Armor is a great passive way to keep you from getting hurt too badly in a fight. Some jobs will have difficulty acquiring armor. Some armor, like hardsuits, will slow you, as well.

Armor will reduce all damage of a certain type, on parts of your body that are protected by the armor. You will see "Your armor softens the blow!" when your armor reduces damage. The defense values are indicated by an armor's percent protection from different damage types, for example basic Armor has a melee protection rate of 50, as such it will reduce all melee damage to the chest by 50%.

Armor only protects the region that it covers on your body. No armor protects your entire body.

Body Armor

Icon	Item	How to acquire	Protection	Defense values %	Notes
	Captain's Armor	Captain's Quarters	Offers moderate protection from most sources.	melee = 40 bullet = 50 laser = 50 energy = 25 bomb = 50 bio = 100 rad = 50 fire = 100 acid = 100	The Captain will sometimes wear this. It's also space-worthy, but it will slow you down. Wearing this while not the Captain is a good way to get robusted.
	Captain's Carapace	Captain's Quarters	Offers moderate protection from most sources.	melee = 50 bullet = 40 laser = 50 energy = 10 bomb = 25	A special armor vest unique to the Captain. Offers far greater protection than most armor, and also displays your authority to the crew.
	Engineering Hardsuit	Engineering	Gives low protection from melee attacks and explosions.	melee = 30 bullet = 5 laser = 10 energy = 5 bomb = 10 bio = 100 rad = 75 fire = 100 acid = 75	See here for information on the different styles.
	Atmospherics Hardsuit	Atmospherics	Identical to normal RIG however it is one of the only items that grants complete protection from Fire at the cost of no Radiation protection.	melee = 30 bullet = 5 laser = 10 energy = 5 bomb = 10 bio = 100 fire = 100 acid = 75	See here for information on the different styles.
	Mining Hardsuit	Mining	Gives quite good protection from melee attacks and explosions. Can be upgraded with goliath hide plates to a maximum of 80 melee defense. Essentially becoming a spaceworthy riot suit. The helmet must be upgraded independently of the suit.	melee = 30 - 70 bullet = 5 laser = 10 energy = 5 bomb = 50 bio = 100 rad = 50 fire = 50 acid = 75	See here for information on the different styles.
	CE Hardsuit	Chief Engineer	Gives good protection from melee attacks, near complete Radiation protection and complete protection against Fire.	melee = 40 bullet = 5 laser = 10 energy = 5 bomb = 50 bio = 100 rad = 90 fire = 100 acid = 90	See here for information on the different styles.
	CMO Hardsuit	Chief Medical Officer	Provides little physical protection and does not block intense light based weapons, such as flashbangs or flashes. But is a easy to access Hardsuit for the CMO.	melee = 30 bullet = 5 laser = 10 energy = 5 bomb = 10 bio = 100 rad = 50 fire = 75 acid = 75	See here for information on the different styles.
	RD Hardsuit	Research Director	More accurately described as a space proof bomb suit. One of the only Hardsuits to provide 100% bomb protection, the helmet also has a diagnostic HUD built in.	melee = 30 bullet = 5 laser = 10 energy = 5 bomb = 100 bio = 100 rad = 60 fire = 60 acid = 80	See here for information on the different styles.
	Security Hardsuit	Brig, or in the case of BoxStation in E.V.A.	Gives slightly increased protection against all damage sources.	melee = 30 bullet = 15 laser = 30 energy = 10 bomb = 10 bio = 100 rad = 50 fire = 75 acid = 75	See here for information on the different styles.
	HoS Hardsuit	Head of Security's Office, or in the case of BoxStation in E.V.A.	Gives slightly increased protection against all damage sources.	melee = 45 bullet = 25 laser = 30 energy = 10 bomb = 25 bio = 100 rad = 50 fire = 95 acid = 95	Offer more protection than the standard Security Hardsuit. Still not as good as the Captain's spacesuit.
	Gem-encrusted hardsuit	Wizard or Summon magic	Offers good protection overall and counts as a robe for spellcasting. Protective against fire and totally acidproof to boot!	melee = 40 bullet = 40 laser = 40 energy = 20 bomb = 35 bio = 100 rad = 50 fire = 100 acid = 100	See here for information on the magical arts.
	Ablative Armor Vest	Armory	Gives excellent protection against Laser and Energy attacks and can even deflect them.	melee = 10 bullet = 10 laser = 60 energy = 50	It will sometimes deflect energy projectiles, which includes Taser shots! It's also a traitor objective. Expect to receive a harsh sentence from security if caught with this.
	Bulletproof Vest	Armory	Makes the wearer very resilient to bullets at the cost of being poor defense against other weapons.	melee = 15 bullet = 60 laser = 10 energy = 10 bomb = 40	Very useful against gangsters and nuke ops. The helmet only provides half of the protection of the vest sadly.
	Body Armor	HoS, HoP, Security	Protects moderately against melee and lasers, which are common things to be harmed by.	melee = 30 bullet = 30 laser = 30 energy = 10 bomb = 25	The standard armor found on security mooks. Also sometimes found on Ian. Also comes in identical tactical (officer lockers) and Black Mesa (security vendor) versions.
	Riot Suit	Armory	This, combined with the riot shield, will make you be the nightmare of fire extinguisher -wielding assistants everywhere. Gives complete protection to the entire body.	melee = 50 bullet = 10 laser = 10 energy = 10	It's very resistant to melee attacks, BUT it's less protective against lasers than standard armor.
	Armored Coat	HoS	A good set of armour that covers the entire body, and the HoS starts with it. Not as powerful as it once was but it's still robust.	melee = 30 bullet = 30 laser = 30 energy = 10 bomb = 25	Wear this as your rightful trophy if you manage to outrobust him.
	Deathsquad Armor	Death Squad	Extremely robust armor found only on Deathsquad Officers. Offers strong protection against all damage sources to the entire body, in addition to being spaceworthy. Moderate slowdown.	melee = 80 bullet = 80 laser = 50 energy = 50 bomb = 100 bio = 100 rad = 100 fire = 100 acid = 100	If you see someone wearing this, it's a good idea to run.
	Bomb Suit	Toxins Lab, Armory	Protects you from bombs. Even if a bomb manages to kill you, your body will not be gibbed and you can be cloned.	melee = 40 laser = 20 energy = 10 bomb = 100	A suit designed for safety when handling explosives.
	Security Officer's Jumpsuit	Security Offices	A security officer's jumpsuit provides a small amount of melee protection. All security-division jumpsuits have the same benefit, whether it be an officer's, the detective's, or the HoS's. Lawyers do not, however.	melee = 10	The kicker? It goes in your jumpsuit slot, and when worn underneath armor will stack their defenses additively. The riot suit's 80% melee reduction becomes an incredible 90%.
	MK.I SWAT Suit	Order it from Cargo	An all rounded suit available through the Cargo Supply Console for 6000 points. Causes moderate slowdown	melee = 40 bullet = 30 laser = 30 energy = 30 bomb = 50 bio = 90 rad = 20 fire = 100 acid = 100	This suit, although costly, can provide a decent addition to security should they need extra defense against a multitude of threats.
	Blood-red Hardsuit	From the Syndicate	A dual-mode advanced helmet designed for work in special operations. Has two modes: EVA and Combat.	melee = 40 bullet = 50 laser = 30 energy = 15 bomb = 35 bio = 100 rad = 50 fire = 50 acid = 90	Costs 8 telecrystals from the uplink. EVA is space proof while Combat is not, but increases your speed, fits in backpacks. Property of Gorlex Marauders.

Helmets

Icon	Item	How to acquire	Protection	Defense values %	Notes
	Helmet	Security Office	Standard head gear for security mooks. Keeps your head safe.	melee = 35 bullet = 30 laser = 30 energy = 10 bomb = 25	Brave officers may opt to wear the security beret or hat instead. The warden's hat offers the same protection as this.
	Swat Helmet	Derelict or order it from Cargo	A rare and extremely powerful helmet that protects against all kinds of damage. Spaceworthy.	melee = 40 bullet = 30 laser = 25 energy = 25 bomb = 50 bio = 10	If you get this, be proud that you are wearing the best protective headgear in the game.
	Riot Helmet	Armory	Provides excellent melee protection, but lacks in other areas.	melee = 45 bullet = 15 laser = 5 energy = 5 bomb = 5 bio = 2	Useful during revolutions, and other situations where you might be swarmed with melee weapons.
	Head of Security Hat	HoS	Provides robust head protection in all damage types. The HoS starts with this.	melee = 40 bullet = 30 laser = 25 energy = 10 bomb = 25 bio = 10	Powerful and stylish, also for showing who is in charge around here. The dermal armor in the HoS's locker offers the same protection as this.
	Deathsquad Helmet	Death squad	A strong helmet that provides reduction against most damage types. Spaceworthy.	melee = 80 bullet = 80 laser = 50 energy = 50 bomb = 100 bio = 100 rad = 100	Underwhelming compared to the deathsquad body armor
