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.

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

Hud-target.gif You can target specific damage zones by using the Numpad Keys. Each limb has its own pool of hitpoints but damaging them also counts towards the target's total HP. 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, although it is sometimes worth it to dismember limbs with bladed weapons. However, there's a chance whenever you try to hit a specific limb to instead hit something else.

The Click Cooldown

It is hard coded that you can not make more than 1 click per deci-second (0.1 seconds.) This however, is not the only limit. While things like examining or taking a pen out of a PDA are limited only by the hard-coded cooldown, other actions are also limited by another cooldown. These special cooldowns will lock you out of further click based action until the cooldown is finished. The following is a record of all defined cooldowns. All other actions default to the standard click cooldown of 0.1 seconds and are unaffected by this system.

  • Melee attacks: 0.8 seconds
  • Throwing: 0.8 seconds
  • Ranged attacks : 0.4 seconds (Some guns have a separately defined cooldown)
  • Rapid attacks: 0.2 seconds (Gloves of the north star, the bee sword)
  • Abilities: 0.6 seconds (Action buttons, like a changelings fleshmend)
  • Breakout: 10 seconds (Breaking out of restraints/locked machines)
  • Handcuffed: 1 second (Currently unused)
  • Resisting: 2 seconds (Triggered even if you had nothing to resist out of)
  • Grabbing: 1 second
  • Look up: 5 seconds

This is not a comprehensive list as some cooldowns are undefined or oddly defined. For example spraying with a spray bottle is defined as CLICK_CD_RANGE*2. Guns also have defines for custom click speeds, so some guns may fire faster or slower than the standard 0.4 seconds. The 'Double Tap' trait gained from root beer speeds up the cooldown of guns by x2.

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. Dragging prone bodies or lockers will slow you down. You can bypass this drag slowdown by buckling the body to an office chair or roller bed before pulling it.

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 Handcuffs.png, you can easily craft cablecuffs Cablecuffs.png by activating cable coils CableCoils.png in your hand. Cuff a person by holding cuffs in your active hand, and then clicking your target. Grab action.png Grab 32.pngУдерживайте Ctrl и нажмите левый клик по человеку пустой рукой.

Также позволяет вам не меняться местами с человеком или толкнуть вас если вы столкнулись. 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 themselves, 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 click-dragging their sprite onto yours and then click the cuffs in the menu that pops up.

Stuns

The easiest way to win a fight is by stunning your enemy, leaving them vulnerable for you to cuff them, hurt them into a crit state, or worse. The downside of stuns is that the effect is only temporary; if you fail to deal with your target in time, they can get back up. Also note, when the wiki or players talk about "stuns", they typically mean both the paralyze and the stun, both are types of disable effects. It can be confusing to know which disable effect is which, so it's helpful to read what each one does.

The most common stun is stamina crit, which occurs when a target experiences over 100 stamina damage. The stunprod Stunprod.png is a craftable weapon that deals 55 stamina damage, enough to stun someone in two hits. Stun times vary 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 stun weapons are conditional, such as the flash Flash.gif, which only works if the target has no sunglasses or similar protection. Keep in mind that some targets can be immune to stuns; you will have to damage them instead. Common mobs with stun immunity are simplemobs and hulks.

Melee Combat

You interact with a person in melee by being adjacent to them and clicking on their sprite (and not on the tile they are standing on/moving towards). You count as adjacent to moving targets when next to the tile their animation is gliding towards. When your interaction connects, something will happen depending on Боевой режим Combat 32.pngВключается при помощи клавиши 4, выключается при помощи клавиши 1 или может быть переключен при помощи клавиши F при стандартной раскладке.

Также позволяет вам не меняться местами с человеком или толкнуть вас если вы столкнулись. status, mouse button used and which weapon you are wielding. Due to technical limitations, some clicks will not connect, so what you should do is spam-click 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 Traitor.png 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 kept missing the shots with the bow, due to you staying behind a machine or wall, and is now coming towards you with the e-sword. You have have a few options.

Shoving

First you should read about how shoving with Rightclick.png Disarm 32.pngПравый клик по человеку пустой рукой. Неважно включен или выключен Боевой режим Combat 32.pngВключается при помощи клавиши 4, выключается при помощи клавиши 1 или может быть переключен при помощи клавиши F при стандартной раскладке.

Также позволяет вам не меняться местами с человеком или толкнуть вас если вы столкнулись.. works (hover over the mouse icon). You can try to lure your enemy into a spot where you can shove him against an object, which knocks him down and makes him drop both weapons. Then shove him one more time on the ground to paralyze him for 3 seconds. Then you must quickly left click his own dropped energy sword to pick it up. Kill him with it. To avoid being shoved yourself you should try to not stand next to obstacles.

Grabbing

You can Grab action.png Grab 32.pngУдерживайте Ctrl и нажмите левый клик по человеку пустой рукой. Неважно включен Боевой режим Combat 32.pngВключается при помощи клавиши 4, выключается при помощи клавиши 1 или может быть переключен при помощи клавиши F при стандартной раскладке.

Также позволяет вам не меняться местами с человеком или толкнуть вас если вы столкнулись. или нет. Повторите действие после небольшой задержки чтобы усилить хватку до агрессивной (уровень 2), шеи (уровень 3) и удушающей (уровень 4).. For this to work you must know CQC (because they make you aggressive grab instantly) or your enemy must either be temporarily stunned or standing still and not paying attention. First you ctrl + click your target once to passive grab. Keep ctrl + spam-clicking him and if he doesn't move or "resist" to break out of your grab, you will grab him aggressively. This will make your target 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 action.png Grab 32.pngУдерживайте Ctrl и нажмите левый клик по человеку пустой рукой. Неважно включен Боевой режим Combat 32.pngВключается при помощи клавиши 4, выключается при помощи клавиши 1 или может быть переключен при помощи клавиши F при стандартной раскладке.

Do this by enabling Боевой режим Combat 32.pngВключается при помощи клавиши 4, выключается при помощи клавиши 1 или может быть переключен при помощи клавиши F при стандартной раскладке. Нажатие левой кнопки на людей пустой рукой с включённым боевым режимом приведёт к удару Harm 32.png или приведёт к помощи Help 32.png если он отключен. Также позволяет вам не меняться местами с человеком или толкнуть вас если вы столкнулись. and then clicking any table Table.png within your melee range. This will instantly transport him to the top of the table, and knock him down for 3 seconds, which deals 10 brute and 40 stamina damage. Quickly follow up with a Rightclick.png Disarm 32.pngПравый клик по человеку пустой рукой. Неважно включен или выключен Боевой режим Combat 32.pngВключается при помощи клавиши 4, выключается при помощи клавиши 1 или может быть переключен при помощи клавиши F при стандартной раскладке.

If you time it just right, you can permanently keep him stunned by waiting a moment and then spam Grab action.png Grab 32.pngУдерживайте Ctrl и нажмите левый клик по человеку пустой рукой. Неважно включен Боевой режим Combat 32.pngВключается при помощи клавиши 4, выключается при помощи клавиши 1 или может быть переключен при помощи клавиши F при стандартной раскладке. Нажатие левой кнопки на людей пустой рукой с включённым боевым режимом приведёт к удару Harm 32.png или приведёт к помощи Help 32.png если он отключен. Также позволяет вам не меняться местами с человеком или толкнуть вас если вы столкнулись. или нет. Повторите действие после небольшой задержки чтобы усилить хватку до агрессивной (уровень 2), шеи (уровень 3) и удушающей (уровень 4). on him to aggressive again, and clicking the same table again, and then shoving him again. You can do this over and over until crit or stamcrit. If you are on the receiving end of this treatment you can yell for help and spam "resist", which will make you attempt to break out of the grab (with a 4 second cooldown). Resisting will not work the 3 seconds you are paralyzed, so your enemy must mess up the timing for you to escape.

If you know CQC or sleeping carp any table will be destroyed if you table someone on it. Tabling on a glass table Glass table.png will stun for a long duration, but will break the table.

Table Head Slamming

If you somehow manage to upgrade your Grab action.png Grab 32.pngУдерживайте Ctrl и нажмите левый клик по человеку пустой рукой. Неважно включен Боевой режим Combat 32.pngВключается при помощи клавиши 4, выключается при помощи клавиши 1 или может быть переключен при помощи клавиши F при стандартной раскладке. Нажатие левой кнопки на людей пустой рукой с включённым боевым режимом приведёт к удару Harm 32.png или приведёт к помощи Help 32.png если он отключен. Также позволяет вам не меняться местами с человеком или толкнуть вас если вы столкнулись. или нет. Повторите действие после небольшой задержки чтобы усилить хватку до агрессивной (уровень 2), шеи (уровень 3) и удушающей (уровень 4). to level 3, tabling someone will make you slam their head on the table. A head slam does 30 brute damage to the head, 40 stamina damage and 3 seconds of knockdown. Performing two head slams on the same standard table will destroy the table.

Strangling

If having an aggressive grab, you can reinforce your grab two more times by repeating Grab action.png Grab 32.pngУдерживайте Ctrl и нажмите левый клик по человеку пустой рукой. Неважно включен Боевой режим Combat 32.pngВключается при помощи клавиши 4, выключается при помощи клавиши 1 или может быть переключен при помощи клавиши F при стандартной раскладке. Нажатие левой кнопки на людей пустой рукой с включённым боевым режимом приведёт к удару Harm 32.png или приведёт к помощи Help 32.png если он отключен. Также позволяет вам не меняться местами с человеком или толкнуть вас если вы столкнулись. или нет. Повторите действие после небольшой задержки чтобы усилить хватку до агрессивной (уровень 2), шеи (уровень 3) и удушающей (уровень 4).. 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 20% chance to break out per try (down from ~60% on aggressive grab) and takes 15-20 stamina damage every failed attempt. Strangling is rarely used unless the target is already cuffed or in stamina critical. The target can attempt to resist once every 4 seconds, and can call for help while being strangled. But you can punch stamina critted players in a single limb repeatedly during strangling to keep them in-place, tape-gagging optional.

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 Glass table.png 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 Wall.png or reinforced wall R wall.png will paralyze him for a moment as well, and same against windows and some other objects but with reduced paralyze time. Throwing him at an airlock Airlock.gif will make it open, if he is wearing a valid ID.

Также позволяет вам не меняться местами с человеком или толкнуть вас если вы столкнулись. и затем используйте левый клик на человека пустой рукой. . 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 Rightclick.png Disarm 32.pngПравый клик по человеку пустой рукой. Неважно включен или выключен Боевой режим Combat 32.pngВключается при помощи клавиши 4, выключается при помощи клавиши 1 или может быть переключен при помощи клавиши F при стандартной раскладке.

Также позволяет вам не меняться местами с человеком или толкнуть вас если вы столкнулись.. shove the target on the ground to paralyze him for 3 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, (unlike punches, kicks don't miss) which simply deals 1.5-15 brute damage. Punches and kicks deal minimal amounts of stamina damage. Surgically replacing one of your arms with an Ethereal arm can prove to be useful, as you'll be able to give a burn wound or husk people without the need for a welding tool.

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.

Throwing

This is a safer way to take down a target. Pick nearby items/objects up and throw them at the target. Most items deal the same damage when thrown as when used as a melee weapon. Some, such as spears Spear.png will deal even more damage. (Who knew that a thing designed to deal more damage would naturally deal more damage, funny how that works) First pick up a item/object, then activate "throw" with the [R] key. (Or hold down spacebar) Then click where you want to throw the item/object. You can pick up some chairs Chair.png or even stools Stool.png for throwing, by dragging their sprites onto yours. Throwing just like ranged combat, uses pixel perfect movement, which means you can throw it in any direction. You can also craft a bolas to throw at targets, which will slow them down until they resist out of it. Thrown objects do not count as ranged shots and as such can't reflected by sleeping carp users. You can counter having items thrown at you by activating "throw" yourself (with [R] or holding down [spacebar]). If your active hand is empty, you will then catch/capture the next object thrown at you, instead of getting hit by it.

Embedding

Some items, such as the spears Spear.png, 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 Shard.png and metal rods Rods.png 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 ESword.png, combat knife Buckknife.png and throwing star Tstar.png

Weapons

What follows below is a table of some common or robust items that may help you win, separated by category. Uncommon weapons may not be listed and the ones that are could be outdated, so don't rely entirely on the table. If in doubt, examining the weapon and clicking the "bluespace tag" will tell you how many hits it takes to bring someone down.

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.

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

Smashing or throwing it spills its contents over the target so you could use it as a chemist to knock out your target, 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 target on fire. (toasty)
Box Cutter 10 brute when extended
print one from the autolathe Civilian A ghetto switchblade, is better at neck slashing than other melee weapons of its strength and is easily concealable.
Butcherknife.png 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. Can easily dismember with repeated strikes to the same limb, works extra-well against burn wounded limbs.
Saw.png 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 as well as Medbay's techfab, if it has metal to make it.
Deathnettle.png 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.gif Fire Extinguisher 10 Brute Emergency Fire closets and lockers, emergency storage rooms Civilian Found across the station so they aren't in any short supply. Unlikely to be taken away by security if they search you. They are also very useful if you get spaced, spray it in the opposite direction of where you want to head to, and you'll fly away. With a limit of 50 units, that's 10 squirts using 5 per spray.
OxygenTank.png
N2Otank.png
Air/Oxygen/Anaesthetic tank 10 Brute Emergency lockers E.V.A. Ordnance Lab Atmospherics Operating Theatre (for anaesthetic tanks). Civilian Found across the station so they aren't in any 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, unless you don't plan to wake up anytime soon, or not at all if you aren't found in time).
Push Broom 8 Brute unwielded

12 Brute wielded

Custodial Closet, Janitorial Cart Janitor Deals a surprising amount of damage when wielded. Beware the janitor's wrath when you make too much of a mess.
Fireaxe.png Fire Axe 5 Brute unwielded
24 Brute wielded
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 away and it's a large object so best store this on your back. (or drag it around and risk it getting yoinked) They are also rare, one can be found in Atmos and the other is located at 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 up ones. A variant can be made from metallic hydrogen if you're skilled enough in Atmos.
Hatchet.png Hatchet 12 Brute
15 thrown
Hydroponics. Civilian: Botany Botanists use these to chop wood, they also are good at chopping limbs. Are easy to conceal, and if you're a Botanist, security probably won't care if you're carrying one around. Throwing it at someone deals 15 brute damage. Bonus points if you end up finishing off an fleeing target this way, Navajo-style. Works as a ghetto circular saw in surgery.
Knife.png Kitchen Knife 10 Brute Kitchen Autolathe. Civilian Useful if you're the Chef/Cook, as Security are unlikely to give a single shit if they spot you with it. Works as a ghetto scalpel in surgery. Can be hidden in boots.
Nullrod.png 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 them. It can also destroy runes and protect against some cult magics. Can be transformed into a variety of religious weapons, with different characteristics.
Pickaxe.png Pickaxe 15 Brute Mining Dock and Mining Station. Civilian: Supply Fairly robust, but it's very large, so it can only be stored on the back, belt or even on armor slot of miner armor & coats. 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. Also comes in Silver and Diamond variants that deal 17 and 19 brute respectively but you gotta work for it if you want those stronger picks.
Minipick.gif Compact Pickaxe 10 Brute Mining Dock and Mining Station, in miner's equipment closets. Civilian Does less damage, but can fit in a backpack.
Survivalknife.gif 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. Can also be bought from cargo or used as a bayonet on certain bolt-action firearms.
Scalpel.png Scalpel 10 Brute Operating Theatre Autolathe. Civilian: Medical/Research Despite not being as good as the circular saw, this thing is still quite robust. Jabbing people in the eyes occasionally stuns them and eventually blinds them, limiting their ability to run. (do to bumping into entities that can't be seen nearby) The best part is you can store it in your pockets 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. Is useful for making unarmored targets bleed out from many wounds. (death by a thousand cuts)
Shard.png Glass Shard 5 Brute
10 when thrown
Anywhere there's glass (read: everywhere). Civilian Extremely easy to obtain, just break a glass or a reinforced glass pane or climb a glass table. (ideal use a screwdriver on said glass table then activate it in hand shortcut:[Z] once you pick up the glass sheet and make it into a glass shard) Works also as a ghetto scalpel. ideally use gloves to avoid cutting yourself when hitting things, but you can still throw it; You can also make a shiv by applying cloth on it.
Screwdriver tool.png Screwdriver 5 Brute Most storage rooms and Engineering. Civilian Its robustness doesn't come from the damage dealt, but from its thin, pointed edge. Anyone not wearing glasses can have their eyes stabbed out causing them to lose sight and eventually go blind; Doesn't make them mute so expect cries for help.
Drill.png 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; It's useful for leaving lasting wounds that will kill if untreated.
BlueToolbox.png Toolbox 12 Brute Most storage rooms and Engineering. Civilian Rather common. Although it deals a moderate amount of damage, it's a bulky item, so you'll have to hold it. An Assistants love to fight in arenas with these.
Welder.png 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 on every successful hit. Can be filled with 1 unit of fuel and 19 units of liquid plasma to make an ingenious explosive. Welder (burn) wounds on limbs make said limb easier to wound and thus, easier to chop off with a bladed weapon.
Syndicatetools.png 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.png Spear 10 brute when unwielded
18 brute when wielded
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. Spears can be made with plasma shards, titanium shards or even plastitanium shards to make them even more dangerous.
Chainsaw.gif Chainsaw 24 Brute when on Made by yourself Civilian You can surgically replace an arm with a chainsaw; Can break an airlock down easier; Faster when on, slower when off; High wound capability, aim for the legs and arms to put them under max bloodloss.
Baseball bat.png Baseball bat 10 Brute Made by yourself Civilian Knocks back targets on hit; Can also knock projectiles back with it by hitting a projectile before it hits you; Exception, bullet. (The Bat can't outsmart it)

Actual Melee Weapon

While makeshift weapons are more common, actual dedicated weapons are far more effective in harming, subduing or killing a target. However, these weapons are very noticeable and most station personnel can't get access to them.

Icon Item Damage How to Acquire Faction Usage Notes
Cultblade.png 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.
ESword.png 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
DoubleESword.png 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 target. When wielded it gives a 100% chance to deflect energy-based shots, like lasers. Like the energy sword, its activation is very loud. 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.
StunBaton.gif 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 team/force can get these easily; Deploy liberally, but stow for transport.
Katana.gif Katana 40 brute Syndicate base Nuclear Operatives Real katanas are very robust, but rare. The Syndicate base contains one. Despite the high damage, the katana often goes unused due to its lack of deflection capabilities compared to the double esword.
Cursed Katana.gif Cursed Katana 15 brute Possible loot from necropolis chests in Lavaland. Mining Cursed weapon that retracts into an organ, and mauls your hand if you retract it without hitting a live target. Able to combo attacks.
Telescopic Baton.png Telescopic Baton 10 Brute Heads of Staff's backpacks. Command Like the stun baton but retractable, fits in your pockets and has a instant knock down with the added downside of a shorter stun time, Heads of Staff start their shift with one in their backpack. EXTEND IT BEFORE USING!
Sabre 0.png 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.
Combatknife.png Combat Knife 20 Brute Can be ordered through Cargo. Security Very robust for its size.
Survivalknife.gif Survival Knife 15 Brute Given to shaft miners. Supply The perfect tool for butchering the local wildlife and showing how they do it in Birmingham to a demigod.

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 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.

Stun and Incapacitation Weapons

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
StunBaton.gif Stun Baton Stamina damage Security Not being security, and having this out, is likely to land you in the brig.

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. Hardsuits and spacesuits will also block flashes, except for the CMO's.

Defense

To be good at combat, you must be able to survive an encounter with anything; Rockets, E-swords, and bees can all come flying towards you at any moment. 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.

Stun Defense

Some abilities and items can reduce or entirely block stuns.

Icon Counter Type of Stun How to Acquire Notes
Hulk.png 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.
SGlasses.png 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
RiotS.png 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. Tanking too much damage with it can cause the shield to shatter, stunning you.
Eshield.png 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.
Reactivearmor.png 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.
Sword.gif 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.

Cheap Tricks

Hey kid, you made all the way it to the bottom of the guide. Let me tell you something, playing fair isn't going to work when you're facing some of the toughest bad guys in the galaxy. The only way you're going to win against those odds is if you use some tricks.

  • Aim for eyes Hud target eyes.gif and stab multiple times with a screwdriver to make the target blind. Only works if target has no eyewear.
  • Use weapons that will make you have a chance at blocking an attack (example: a wooden buckler)
  • You can hide remote bombs, Grenades or other explosives in toilets. Prepare some traps beforehand, get their attention, make a tactical retreat so you have them right where you want them. Once they are, press the Remote Signaling Device button by disarm-clicking with it in your active hand.
  • Drag an open crate GrayCrate.png behind you. People accidentally clicking the crate with Боевой режим Combat 32.pngВключается при помощи клавиши 4, выключается при помощи клавиши 1 или может быть переключен при помощи клавиши F при стандартной раскладке. Нажатие левой кнопки на людей пустой рукой с включённым боевым режимом приведёт к удару Harm 32.png или приведёт к помощи Help 32.png если он отключен. Также позволяет вам не меняться местами с человеком или толкнуть вас если вы столкнулись. off will put their weapon in it.
  • Piercing and/or Slashing multiple limbs in a row can lead to fainting from blood-loss faster than a simple throat slice.
  • If you're certain there won't be any collateral damage (or are an antag), learn how to make and utilize bombs.
  • Build with the Rapid Pipe Dispenser and launch yourself out of a 1-way chute disposal at your target while having a stun-reduction reagent in your bloodstream to immediately get a chance to turn the tides.
  • Having good footwork and a higher speed may help you overcome enemies that are stronger than you. Here's some tips:
    • Use Bolas to slow down your target, then run circles around them in a way that they can barely know where you're gonna go or how they're gonna hit you.
    • Use anything you can that will boost your speed. (example: Ephedrine)
    • Utilize banana cream pies or use a combination of weapons in a row to quickly delimb a player, once they lose a leg or both arms, you have a significant advantage.
    • Blasting both of someone's arms off or their leg off with Plasma Cutter.
  • Using slips and knockdowns disarms items out of your targets hand, allowing you to turn their weapons against them.
    • Smashing a bottle upon someone's head or throwing one with the correct chemicals at them makes for a quick knockdown.
    • Alt-click a Fire Extinguisher Fire extinguisher.gif while holding it to subtly empty its water on the floor below you. People chasing you may slip.
    • Carry a bottle or beaker of water and Rightclick.pngПростой правый клик. Не имеет значения включен или выключен Боевой режим Combat 32.pngВключается при помощи клавиши 4, выключается при помощи клавиши 1 или может быть переключен при помощи клавиши F при стандартной раскладке.

    • Drag a soap Soaps.gif behind you to slip people.
  • Try to put your target under pressure, quite a lot of player don't do well under pressure.

There is a ton much more to learn than what's listed above, some things will come from experience others will come from observing well others, break a leg out there heck break someone else's, and remember if you "failed" you didn't fail truly, you just haven't succeeded yet, so don't beat yourself up about it, since that was experienced gained, and that experience is progress and said progress makes you more robust; just try again and again, until you get it right, we didn't become robust over night, but we sure as heck became robust one time or another, so remember, stay calm, observe, do and learn, may the odds be in your favor and forge some extra to insure they're indeed in your favor.
