Weapon Item Information

Weapon items contain a large amount of important information about their function. The information is divided into multiple categories, which are listed below.

Weapon Vitals

Weapon Reflex Defense

A Weapon's Reflex Defense represents how hard the weapon is to hit when in the wielder's grasp. It is calculated by: (Weilder's Reflex Defense + 2 + add. Bonuses.)

Weapon Damage Resistance

A Weapon's Damage Resistance represents how much damage the weapon can shake off before it causes harm. It is calculated by: (Item Size DR Modifier + Weapon Type DR Modifier + Manufacturer DR Modifier + add. Bonuses.)

Weapon's Hit Points

A Weapon's Hit Points represent how much damage the weapon can take before it becomes unusable or, worse, permanently broken. It is calculated by: (Item Size HP Modifier + Weapon Type HP Modifier + Manufacturer HP Modifier + add. Bonuses.)

Weapon's Damage Threshold

A Weapon's Damage Threshold represents the weapon's resilience against massive amounts of Damage hitting it directly.

Weapon's Condition

A Weapon's Condition represents the current physical state of the weapon, from mint to destroyed; the lower the condition, the worse the item performs.

Weapon Qualities

Weapon Qualities are defined by their Categories, ranging from the broadest of Classifications to the most narrow of Models. The many qualities of a weapon define: how it works, 'where's the niche', why it excels, but most importantly (especially for the layman) what it is. In short, between a Weapon's Classification, Group, Type, and Model, you can learn everything you need to know about it.

Weapon Groups

A weapon group separates the vast number of Weapons that populate the Galaxy into simple Archetypes: Assault Weapons, Heavy Weapons, Lightsabers, Melee Weapons, Sidearms, and Simple Weapons. Groups also correlate with the weapon proficiency feat you'll need to be considered proficient with that Group. If you don't have the appropriate Weapon Proficiency, your Attack Roll takes a -15 penalty on attacks made with the weapon. You also cannot add any bonuses based on your character's abilities.

Weapon Groups are as follows:

Weapon Trait

Accurate

This weapon takes a double penalty when firing at targets at Short Range or closer (see Weapon Ranges).

Arc Munitions

Arc Munitions are rounds that are hurled into the air at a square, rather than flying straight at a target. These munitions cannot fire at squares at Point-Blank Range (see Weapon Ranges).

Breaker

Weapons with this trait treat their target's Damage Threshold as if it were 5 points lower than its base value. If weapons with this trait attack an object, they may halve its Damage Threshold (or treat it as though it were 5 points lower, whichever is greater).

Charge Rounds

Charge Rounds are rounds that may be charged longer inside their weapon for extra damage. The wielder may spend a Swift Action and/or three Free Actions to add one additional dice to the weapon's damage die.

Devastator

Weapons with this trait add an additional +10 to all Devastating Injury Rolls caused by this weapon. Weapons with, or those that gain this trait, can spend 1,000 credits to increase this bonus by another 1 (maximum +30).

Disunited

Weapons with this trait may be broken down into two, or more, smaller components and reassembled (using a Full-Round Action) to smuggle them into various areas.

Finesse

Melee Weapons with this trait allow the wielder to use their Dexterity Modifier on their Attack rolls instead of their Strength modifier for Attack Rolls.

Full-Auto

A weapon with this trait can only shoot in Autofire and has a -7 penalty to its Attack Roll.

Full-Burst

A weapon with this trait can only shoot in Burstfire and has a -4 penalty to its Attack Roll.

Heavy Recoil

This weapon imposes Disadvantage on all attacks.

Inaccurate

This weapon cannot fire at targets at Long Range (see Weapon Ranges).

Lightsaber

This weapon has all the bonuses provided by Lightsaber Traits (see Lightsaber Traits).

Reach

Melee weapons with this trait may reach additional squares from those adjacent to the wielder.

Serrated

Weapons with this trait deal bonus damage equal to a quarter of the damage dealt to the target's armor.

Slasher

Weapons with this trait deal 1d3 bleed damage each round -until healed- if your damage roll overcomes the target's Fortitude Defense.

Stun Setting

Blaster/Energy Weapons with this trait can switch between Lethal Fire and Stun Shots (with Simple Ranged Weapon Range) as a swift action.

Unsighted

This weapon must be aimed before it's fired.

Versatile

Melee weapons with this trait may benefit from Double / Half Grip Damage benefits.

Weapon Item Size

Fine

Many weapons, let alone items overall, are not of fine size. The few that are will be listed on a section all their own on the Items page

Diminutive

Diminutive-sized weapons are small enough to be hidden easily, even in tight clothing. The most common examples are things like brass knuckles and explosive darts.

Tiny

Tiny-sized weapons are any weapon that can fit into a medium-sized creature's palm or hidden in a pocket. Only Ranged Weapons benefit from a double grip on a Tiny weapon. Tiny Weapons mostly include Hold-out Blasters, Compact Slugthrowers, grenades, & daggers.

Small

Small-sized weapons are any weapons that can be operated comfortably by one hand or adequately fit into a pocket. A second hand will not add any benefit for small melee weapons, whereas a small ranged weapon is further stabilized with a second hand. Most Light Weapons, Sidearms, and certain modified Assualt Weapons are considered Small Weapons, as well as all Mines & Rocket ordnances.

Medium

Medium-sized weapons are typically two-handed and designed for traditional martial warfare. They include the largest Sidearms, larger Variable weapons, and most assault weapons, as well as the smallest Heavy Weapons, Polearms, and Great weapons.

Large

Large-sized weapons are two-handed heavy impact weapons for anti-material / anti-personnel use. They include most Heavy Weapons, Polearms, and Great Weapons.

Gargantuan

Gargantuan-sized weapons are typically mounted, super heavy weaponry that uses its immobile design to fire heavier rounds and better defend positions. These types of weapons can also be planted on air/land speeders or smaller starships.

Colossal

Colossal-sized weapons are starship-mounted weapons.

Weapon Proportions

A weapon's proportions tell whether or not it is a One or Two-handed weapon.

Weapon Availability

A weapon's availability determines what type of licensing a person needs to carry the weapon in question. The different availabilities are listed below:

Open

Weapons with an Open availability are free to carry and are only restricted in weapon-free zones.

License

Weapons with a License availability require a license of legal ownership to keep them if stopped by authorities.

Restricted

Weapons with Restricted availability require a special exemption to prove legal ownership, due to their military-only or illegal status.

Military

Weapons with a Military availability require a military license with a high enough clearance to show their exemption from the illegal status of the weapon.

Illegal

Weapons with Illegal availability cannot be held by any person at any time. They will always be confiscated when found by the authorities, no matter who you are.

Weapon Rarity

A weapon's rarity determines how commonly it can be found across the Galaxy. The different rarities are listed below:

Common

53% 1-52

Uncommon

27% 53-80

Limited

13% 81-94

Rare

5% 95-99

Legendary

1.5% 100*

Unique

.49% 100* + 51-99

Exotic

.01% 100* + 100

Special Note

When the d100 lands on a 100 during a loot roll, you reroll to see if you get a Unique or Exotic drop. Consult their d100 result in the section above to see what the second results must be.

Weapon Weight

The weapon's weight is measured in kilograms.

Weapon Reach/Range

Whether it is a melee weapon or a ranged weapon, each weapon has its own effective range. That reach or range is marked here.

Weapon Cost

The weapon's cost in credits.

Weapon Combat Stats

Weapon Attack Roll

The roll you need to make to attack with this weapon: 1d20 + your Melee/Ranged Attack Bonus + add. Weapon Attack Bonuses - Attack Penalties.

Weapon Damage Roll

The roll you make to deal damage with the weapon: Weapon + Damage Roll Bonus + add. Weapon Damage Bonus - Damage Penalties.

Double Weapons have two damage entries separated by a slash; these represent the damage dealt by each end of the Double Weapon.

Damage Type

The type of damage a weapon deals. Some creatures and objects take more or less damage from weapons that deal certain types of damage. Some weapons deal more than one type of damage, depending on how the weapon is used:

&: The weapon deals both types of damage simultaneously.
Or: The weapon deals one type of damage or the other, chosen immediately before making the attack roll.
Double Weapons sometimes deal a different damage type depending on which end of the weapon is used; in this case, the two damage types are separated by a slash.

Weapon Critical Threat Range & Critical Damage Multiplier

The weapon's critical threat range is the number range the d20 needs to land on to get a Critical Hit. The Critical Damage Multiplier is the number you multiply your damage roll result by to determine your damage on a critical hit.

Weapon Devastating Critical Injury Rate

Some weapons don't have a Critical Damage Multiplier; instead, they deal Devastating Critical Injuries when the die lands in its Critical Threat Range. The Weapon will determine the Devastating Injury Die.

Stun Setting

If the weapon has a Stun Setting, it is listed here. A weapon set to Stun does Stun damage equal to its normal damage.

Ranged Weapons set to Stun have a maximum range of 6 squares unless noted otherwise.

Rate of Fire

Ranged weapons have either Autofire, Burstfire, or Single-Shot settings. Some weapons have a combination of the settings and can be set to any mode as a Swift Action. Only Ranged Weapons that hold multiple shots of ammunition can have an Autofire setting.

A weapon can only be on one alternate setting other than its default setting (such as Autofire or Stun) at a time. Autofire-only weapons with Stun settings can deal Stun damage in Autofire mode, but still have a maximum range of 6 squares, unless noted otherwise.

Ranged Weapon Shot Counter & Limit

For Ranged Weapons only, the weapon will note its Shot Limit, which is a Magazine that the user subtracts from in Slugthrower-type weapons, and a Capacitor that the user adds to in Blaster-type weapons. When either the Magazine is empty or the Capacitor is full, the Weapon can no longer fire until it is Reloaded.

Weapon Upgrade Slots

Many weapons in the Galaxy can be further personalized. Those who can afford it, or those who have mechanical aptitude, may add additional bonuses, abilities, or functionalities to their weapons. These new bonuses, abilities, and functionalities are part of Weapon Upgrades. Not every weapon in the Galaxy can be upgraded.
