The weapons section of the curriculum contains individual posts for each weapon in no particular order.
Each of these posts contains an overview, usage, and stats section for the titled particular weapon. I do not expect people to memorize all the stats. Their purpose is to enlighten the interested in handling the various weapons available in JKA and teaching what to expect when the same weapons are pointed back at you.
A typical post in the curriculum will look as follows:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Overiew:
<This section reflects my opinionated view of the weapon and it's strengths and/or weaknesses. You may think differently.>
Usage:
<This sections describes some of the practical uses or situations to make the most use out of the weapon. All situations won't be covered, but it should improve knowing when the best time to use each weapon is.>
Stats:
<This is the most informative aspect of the post and will contain informations such as damage ranges, rate of fire, ammo specs, etc.. To Understand how to read future charts, here is an example chart of the DEMP2 with abbreviations shown. Once again, I do not expect everyone to know all the stats >_>... >
Weapon: Destructive Electro-Magnetic Pulse 2 Gun "DEMP2" <---The weapon being described
Special Properties: <---Aspects unique to the weapon
Primary fire does more damage to shields than to health
Secondary fire damages shields and health equally
Secondary fire does not benefit from location based damage
Secondary fire (fully charged) has highest splash damage area of all weapons
Secondary fire's second wave is not stopped by walls
Primary Fire: <---Header linked to following aspects
DMG to Health: 7-15 <---Damage a single shot has on health (No shields present)
DMG to Shield: 21-45 <---Damage a single shot has on shields (Health unaffected)
Rate: 2.22/Second <---The fire rate per second. Reads as: 2.22 Shots per Second
Proj Size: Large <---Projectile Size relative to the rest of the weapons
Proj Speed: Average <---Projectile Speed relative to the rest of the weapons
Accuracy: Excellent <---Accuracy relative to the rest of the weapons
Secondary Fire:
Uncharged DMG: 1-8
Fully Charged DMG: 1-142
Rate: 0.83/Second
Proj Size: Large (Increases with Charge)
Proj Speed: Instant
Accuracy: Excellent
Ammo Specs:
Type: Power Cell
(CPS/Max = Cells(used) per Shot / Max ammo capacity for the weapon)
Primary CPS/Max: 8/37 <---8/37 = The Primary Fire of the weapon uses 8 Cells(of ammo) per shot. At max ammo capacity(300), the weapon could fire 37 times before running out.
Secondary Uncharged CPS/Max: 6/50
Secondary Charged CPS/Max: 30/10 {24(Charge) + 6(Fire)} <---The 24(Charge) + 6(Fire) Stands for the ammo used at the respective stages of firing
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I advise focusing on becoming adept with the saber before seeking to become deadly with weapons. The saber is the primary weapon and should not be your weak point if avoidable.
Do not underestimate weapons as a saberist. You will die.
Do not think being saber-only is righteous. It's actually rather limiting.
If you prefer to not use weapons, seek to atleast understand how to avoid being shot.
If you want additional information, or wish to ask questions regarding weapons or their posts, send a PM via this forum or ask ingame.
Happy hunting
