Revision as of 19:31, 25 January 2015


Weapons are Equipment that increases your ships Attack. Better weapons are unlocked by putting Research into the "Advanced Weapons" line. There can be up to 8 researched weapons installed at once. The effectiveness of weapons can be increased by using Artifacts.

The current maximum Attack that can be obtained purely from researchable weapons (ignoring any artifact, Race or Profession bonuses) is from 8 Heavy Quasi-Chaotic Blasters 100% upgraded with Havoc Coils, which give 6832 Attack for 440 decks and take a total upkeep of 16,400,000,000 (16.4 billion) credits per day.

1 Medium Weapons DO NOT display ANY SubType in their name within the game, Ie. the "Medium Autocannon" is actually displayed ingame as simply "Autocannon". The "medium" name is used here only to underscore their actual role as a game mechanic.

2 All standard weapons can be upgraded using Havoc Coils - the reward from the second task of the Foundry of War legion mission, which increase the attack and upkeep by 20% up to a maximum of 100%. Due to the energy you are likely to expend in obtaining these, it is not recommended to use them on anything less than Heavy Thetacron Cannons.

The coils will upgrade one of your installed standard weapons at random, eventually it would take 40 of them to upgrade 8 weapons. A Heavy Quasi-Chaotic Blaster with 5 upgrades (100%) currently has the third highest attack/deckspace ratio in the game, after a Galakis Pirate Ray with 5 upgrades (200%) as well as a Dominion Tri-blaster.


Discoverable or Salvageable Advanced Weapons

Many weapons can be obtained from completing missions or defeating NPCs or other players. These can be installed in addition to your 8 researched weapon modules, but are subject to their own limits on how many of each type can be installed.

Special Seasonal NPCs - Hallows Bane Series

The Hallows Bane weapon series are available as a drop from special NPC's that are available for two weeks during the Hallows Bane (Halloween) event every year.

3 If you receive one of the above weapons after you kill a Bane Revenant or Bane Eidolon, the version you receive is based on your rank at the time of receiving it. Ships of Rank 1-49 receive the standard version, ships of Rank 50-149 receive the charged version, and ships of Rank 150 and above randomly receive either the Overcharged or Hypercharged version. The MegaCharged Bane Emitter is only dropped by Bane Reavers (ranks 500+), the TerrorCharged Bane Emitter is only dropped by Bane Phantoms (ranks 1,000+), and the HorrorCharged Bane Emitter is only dropped by Bane Dreads (ranks 1,900+?). Once received, these weapons may be installed/used at any time, but they can only be received during the Hallows Bane events. If you haven't got one, just wait until Halloween this year for another chance!


NPC - Crimson Series

The Crimson series of weapons may be dropped by destroying elite NPC's of the Crimson Blades faction. Elite NPC's can be targeted by multiple players of the same legion and can drop several weapons or artifacts.

Elite PvP Combat - Dominion Cannon Series

The Dominion Cannons can be bought via the battle market of the battle tab. They cost red badges, which themselves can only be gained through fighting and destroying other players.

4 The Dominion Auto-Blaster is an upgrade of, rather than a replacement of, the Dominion Cannon Mark III. To build one, you need to purchase a Dominion Cannon - Mark III for 128 Red Badges, and use a Dominion Auto-Blaster Upgrade on it, which costs a further 184 Red Badges. This makes the actual total cost of each Dominion Auto-Blaster 312 Red Badges. You also need 550 medal points to unlock the Auto-Blasters in the Battle Market.

5 The Dominion Tri-Blaster is an upgrade of, rather than a replacement of, the Dominion Auto-Blaster. To build one, you need to purchase a Dominion Cannon - Mark III for 128 Red Badges, then use a Dominion Auto-Blaster Upgrade on it, and then a Dominion Tri-Blaster Upgrade on it, which costs a further 184 & 272 Red Badges respectively. This makes the actual total cost of each Dominion Tri-Blaster 584 Red Badges. You also need 550 medal points to unlock the Auto-Blasters and 800 medal points to unlock the Tri-Blaster in the Battle Market.

While this requires a lot of work in obtaining red badges and medal points, they have one of the highest attack/deckspace ratios in the game, especially at low/mid ranks (below 300) where legion missions are not practical, and Kelethor upgrades (rank 750+) are not available. They also have a relatively low upkeep cost in CR, so they are worth the effort.


Other NPCs

Some weapons may be dropped by other rare NPC's. They are individual, one-off weapons, rather than being part of a chain of gradually-improving weapons.

6 The Ion Pulse Ballistae reduces your max energy by 40 per Ion Pulse Ballistae when equipped, therefore if all four Ion Pulse Ballistae are equipped, they will reduce your max energy by 160. If unequipped, your max energy will return to normal. It is therefore strongly suggested that you unequip all of your Ion Pulse Ballistae before you level up or use Energy Boosters, such as an Energy Cube, Tri-Matrix Emblem, or Insignia of Independence, to ensure you receive the maximum energy refill possible from these artifacts. Also do the same thing before you rank up.


Mission-Exclusive Weapons

Some weapons can only be gained through completing specific missions.

7 The Exotic Pulser reduces your max energy by 10 Per Exotic Pulser when equipped, therefore if all three available Exotic Pulsers are equipped, they will reduce your max energy by 30. If unequipped, your max energy will return to normal. Furthermore, it is strongly suggested that you unequip all of your Exotic Pulsers before you level up or use Energy Boosters, such as an Energy Cube, Tri-Matrix Emblem, or Insignia of Independence, to ensure you receive the maximum energy refill possible from these artifacts. Also do the same thing before you rank up.

8 Applies a disguise to your ship that makes it appear to be a Dark Smuggler to any other ship that targets you, that is to say, it hides your Race and Profession. It also changes the physical look of your ship to support this illusion. Installing it will make your ship look like This.

9 While Installed: Zolazin, Spies, and Hackers get double the Cloak bonus; meanwhile, Konqul, Drannik, and Raiders get double the Attack bonus.

10 Each additional cannon increases the percentage chance (up to 6.1208% with 3) but not the percentage damage.


Legion Mission-Exclusive Weapons

These weapons are available only from completing specific tasks during Legion missions, which are a special type of collaborative mission that is undertaken by an entire legion rather than just individual players. Each mission has three tasks that must all be completed, but each player may only complete one of the tasks, meaning a legion must carefully decide who does each task. Legion missions last for three days (72 hours), but this can be both increased - or decreased - by spending Galaxy Points.

14Activated Ability (with 2 charges refillable via Galaxy Points): Vorean Biocharge, increases invasion attack by 8% for 1 hour.


Radiant Weapons

Currently only one type of Radiant Weapon is available, the Radiant Surge Cannon.

Radiant Surge Cannons are obtained by purchasing the Radiant Surge Cannon artifact from the Artifact Market at a price of 48 Galaxy Points. When the Radiant Surge Cannon artifact is used from your trade menu, a Radiant Surge cannon will be created and installed on your ship. The Radiant Surge Cannon that is produced changes depending on what your ship's rank is at the time the artifact was used to create the weapon.

Note: if your level increases whilst you have have one of these weapons, the Cannon will NOT upgrade to match your new level; you will need to buy a new Radiant Surge Cannon for more Galaxy Points. The actual cost of the Cannons is the same regardless of your level.

The highest Cannon observed on a player is Mark IX (9). It is believed that this is the highest available level, as there are players at level 1700+ that still have Mark IX's installed. Also see the note below about the Mark IX cannons; they are not as powerful as they *should* be.

15This is not a mistake. The Mark IX Radiant Surge Cannon does not follow the pattern of the other Radiant weapons in attack strength. It is less deckspace efficient than the less powerful variants it replaces, because it does not receive as large an attack bonus. It is unknown why this is the case. If it had followed the standard pattern, it would have 700 or even 750 attack, which would respectively give an ATK/Deck ratio of 14.00 or even 15.00.


Other Weapons

These weapons are obtained from avenues other than NPC's or missions.
