This is a table of purpose-made ranged weaponry available in the game. The list may not perfectly represent the current state of the game, as the weapons may be rebalanced but the page may not be updated to reflect this for some time.

Sidearms (Ballistic)

Ballistic weapons remain a popular weapon in the 26th century, typically however Nanotrasen prefer the usage of Energy weapons over Ballistic weapons, so don't expect to see many ballistic weapons on station.

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.

Sidearms (Energy)

Energy weapons are among the most common kind of weapon you'll find on a Nanotrasen space station. Reliable but has issues with ammo.

File:Improvised shotgun.png Improvised Shotgun File:Blank shell.png
12 Gauge shells

12 Gauge shells
2 Shells Depends on shell Bar. Civilian Easiest shotgun to get, yet the rarest. 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.

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.

Longarm (Energy)

Laser Based

Icon Item Ammo Capacity Damage & Effects How to Acquire Faction Usage Notes
File:Laser gun.png Laser Gun Recharger.gif
Energy
10 Lasers 20 Burn Armory, weapons crates and summon guns. Security No real reason to use this over the energy gun as it is lethal ONLY.
File:Laser Cannon.png Laser Cannon Recharger.gif
Energy
10 Lasers 40 Burn R&D Lab once researched first. Nanotrasen Must be researched first. This is the Laser Gun's bigger brother, fear him, he will fuck you over.
Energy Gun.gif Energy Gun Recharger.gif
Energy
10 Lasers, 20 Disable 20 Burn
Stun
Armory, Energy Weapons Crate or Summon guns. 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).
File:Advegun.png Advanced Energy Gun Powercell.png
Energy
10 (recharges over time) 20 Burn/Stun target R&D Lab 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.
File:Antique laser.png Antique Laser Gun Recharger.gif
Energy
12 (recharges over time) 20 Burn Captain's Quarters. Nanotrasen The prized weapon of the Captain, and the target of many enemy horses. Similar to the laser gun except it's recharged all by itself. They just don't make guns like they used to.
File:Multiphase gun stun.gif X-01 Multiphase Energy Gun Recharger.gif
Energy
5 Stun, 10 Laser, 20 Disable 20 Burn Head of Security. Nanotrasen The first attempt by Nanotrasen to remake the Captain's Antique Laser. Has more firing modes on offer but lacks the ability to recharge.
File:Ionrifle.png Ion Rifle Recharger.gif
Energy
10 Ion Pulses 20 Brute to silicon mobs
Up to 90 damage to mechs
3x3 EMP
Armory and on the Nuclear Operative shuttle. Security Large and unwieldy, great for dealing with mechs. Cyborgs are weak to it: flashing cyborgs totally immobilizes them and it leaves you free to robust them to your heart's content.
File:Retrolaser.png Retro Laser Recharger.gif
Energy
12 Lasers 20 Burn White Ship. Unknown Found on the white ship, this old beast is like the laser gun; anyone with a spaaaaaace suit and a little know-how can reach it.
File:Tempgun.png Temperature Gun Recharger.gif
Energy
40 Freeze/heat Beams Heats/Cools target dependent upon the setting. R&D Lab once researched first. Nanotrasen Another researched gun, if you can make this (more importantly, open that damn lockbox), chances are you can construct something better (read: laser cannon). Generally useless, except perhaps for killing slimes if you really don't want to get close.
File:Xraygun.png X-Ray Gun Recharger.gif
Energy
20 Lasers 15 Burn + 30 Irradiate R&D Lab once researched first. Nanotrasen This beams from this gun will pass through everything but a wall. While it does do less burn damage, the radiation it inflicts causes toxin damage and can make someone mutate. Great for shooting up crowded hallways. Kills blobs dead. Current range of the gun is 15 tiles and drops further with every obstacle passed by the beam.

Pulse Based

File:Pulserifle.png Pulse Rifle Recharger.gif

Misc Weapons

File:Chem sprayer.png Chem Sprayer Chemicals 600 units total Confusion, blindness, dizziness, knockout, and random mutations with the standard reagents. 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.
File:Flamethrower.png Flamethrower File:Plasma tank.png
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.
Sgun.png Syringe Gun File:Syringe.png
Syringes
1 Syringe 6 Brute + 15u chemicals Medbay Storage. Civilian In fact, this is very robust. Think of it as a ranged hypospray.
File:Rapidsyringegun.png Rapid Syringe Gun File:Syringe.png
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!

Admin Only Weapons

explosion (-1, 0, 2)
