Syndicate Items: Difference between revisions

  |description = It's a gun. Click on someone and you shoot at them. Does sixty brute damage per shot on an unarmoured target, considerably less on an armoured one. If you're out of bullets, you'll just hit them with your gun, which does a smashing three brute damage. Better to use a toolbox. Careful, the revolver's pretty loud and nearby people will hear it. Also, keep in mind there's only 7 shots.  }}

=== Mini Energy Crossbow ===

  |name = Mini Energy Crossbow

  |strategy = No one sees any messages of who fired at who, but the target knows when they are shot. Use this weapon very carefully and covertly, but remember it is also very good when in a pitch because every hit is a knockdown.

  |description = When this weapon is used on a person, the victim is dealt toxin damage and falls down briefly. While it is a useful weapon, it is another one of those weapons that once the [[Security]] forces find you with one on you, they'll beat you to death with their off stun batons. This item produces no in-game messages, wich means the objective will not see anything on the chat(or even the "put in backpack" message), but the dart can be seen depending on how BYOND feels today, and the sound, even though not loud, can easily be heard if you pay attention. This weapon automatically recharges over time, which means unlike a revolver it won't run out of ammo. It is also completely useless against borgs, since these are immune to both toxins damage and stuns.

  |description = This is a melee weapon that can do a lot of brute damage. It also has a high chance to knock someone down, or outright uncouncious. It has two states, on and off. When it's off, you can fit it into your pocket, but it's not a very effective weapon. Click on it to switch between the two states. Bonus points if you order two and pretend you're a Sith Lord. It also is a very good combo combined with the [[Mini Energy Crossbow|e-bow]]'s knockdown, when cornered.

  |strategy = Best used aggresively against technology. If you wish to opt for a more stealthy approach, the [[#Cryptographic Sequencer|Cryptographic Sequencer]] is usually better. Note that emp grenades are the pretty much the only way to stop an approaching cyborg from afar as a traitor, unless you have access to an [[Ion rifle]].

  |description = This is a weapon used for disabling electronics like the AI's cameras. They can also be used to silence those pesky pAIs for a few minutes. That or flat out kill them while you home in for the kill.  They come in packs of 5. Click on the Grenade to activate it and then throw it like normal grenades. Other uses include draining the batteries of APCs, completely draining the batteries of sec equipment like stun batons and tasers, shocking nearby shocking doors and blinding those who wear thermals caught in the emp range. If you EMP a group of sec officers before a fight, they'll be completely disarmed of stun weaponry (as of right now, emp will only drain about 20% of a stunbatton's total charge, though) aside from flashes and flashbangs. They also stun cyborgs for a good deal of time.

  |strategy = This item will paralyze people, they cannot move or talk, but can see and hear everything around them. It wears off after a while.

  |description = This is a very devious little item. It looks like a pen and works only once, and it does only work once because functionality was removed and coderbus won't answer shit about why they changed it. The pen injects zombie powder into people, making them appear dead on all medical scanners. The victim will survive if the attacker doesn't finish the job properly, and a dead body may not be easy to get rid of some times. The [[nuke agents]] have their own, slightly more powerful version, that puts the target to sleep instead of paralizying it and casues quite some brain damage.

  |description = A cartridge for your [[PDA]]. When inserted, it will allow you to use the missile program to attempt to remotely detonate other people's [[PDA]]s in a kind of weak explosion (Still powerful enough to knockout people and gib corpses, though). Your target [[PDA]] will need the messenger function turned on in order to attempt this, and you need to scan for other [[PDA]]s, then import the list. In addition, there is a chance the cartridge will not work or will feedback and blow up your own [[PDA]]. Despite this it is a decent way of sowing panic aboard the station, or softening up a target for an assassination attempt. Comes with 4 charges. It also has a bomb program that when ran causes the [[PDA]] to self destruct. Useful against gullible targets, or turning [[PDA]]s into hand grenades. For syndicates, this cartridge has the blast door toggled function for the [[Syndicate guide|syndicate shuttle]] as well, allowing you to open the door when the person with the military [[PDA]] has died horribly.

  |description = This pack of explosives can detonate and destroy anything it is set on, after any chosen amount of seconds; even people can be the target of a C4 attack (destroying them instantly). It takes 5 seconds to set this, and requires you to be un-interrupted. You can also fiddle with it's wires or try attaching stuff like signalers for remote detonations to it, experiment!
