Remove the redundant and misnamed weapon section and move its text to offense. Move the PKA to the misc energy gun section, organize the modkits in a collasped table and remove all the description text that I could in an attempt to make in not strech the cells on 5 kilometers. Rename the mining section to plasma cutters since it's now only plasma cutters and replace the dismemberment chance on the damage description with a line of text in the introduction of the section.

While most items in the game can be used as a makeshift weapon, actual dedicated weapons are far more effective in harming, subduing or killing a target.

It should be noted that during combat, if an organic suffers over 15 damage in one second, their tenacious heart will produce a small amount of adrenals. This chemical will prevent damage slowdown while processed in the body's system. This fight-or-flight response lasts about ten seconds. It will not happen again in said organic for ten minutes after triggering.

Most station personal 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.

|The proto-kinetic accelerator utilizes a kinetic pressure system which requires the user to firmly hold the PKA in-hand to charge its kinetic blast via the lever that is on its grip. Pulling the trigger when it has collected enough energy fires the kinetic blast. While it can mine rock, it's main feature is its ability to do massive damage to living targets in an environment below standard pressure. This means it is the staple for dealing with any pesky fauna that may accost you.
Its standard cooldown is 1.6 seconds and its standard range is 3 tiles.
Compatible with several modkits. It has a standard mod capacity of 100%. The mega version has a max mod capacity of 120%.

=== Mining ===
===Plasma Cutters===
Mining energy weaponry, save the proto-kinetic accelerator, is powered by plasma ore and sheets, rather than an internal cell. They fire plasma projectiles that will cut through rock present on [[Lavaland]] or any meteors like butter. They can also double as welding tools. Range represents how far the projectile will normally travel, while Mine Range represents the additional number of tiles the projectile will travel through rock.
Effective mining tools that can also serve as weapons, powered by plasma ore and sheets, rather than an internal cell. They fire plasma projectiles that will cut through rock present on [[Lavaland]] or any meteors like butter and are also very effective at delimbing organic targets. They can also double as welding tools. Range represents how far the projectile will normally travel, while Mine Range represents the additional number of tiles the projectile will travel through rock.


The proto-kinetic accelerator instead utilizes a kinetic pressure system which requires the user to firmly hold the PKA in-hand to charge its kinetic blast via the lever that is on its grip. Pulling the trigger when it has collected enough energy fires the kinetic blast.
