SoB on Railgun
« on: June 02, 2009, 12:45 »

I just found the railgun on my chaingun run and wondered if it gets the same benefits that a plasma rifle does from SoB. i.e. does each of the 5 ammo it uses get the +1 damage. I am thinking no, but I thought I'd ask. Thx

I do not about the shotguns, but besides that, each bullet does extra damage, depending on you SoB level. So if you have SoB level "x", and have a chaingun that deals [ 5 * 1d5 ] damage it actually deals [ 5 * (1d5 + x ) ]. This applies also to rocket launchers, plasma guns. I am not sure if meele weapons also...

It applies - SoB gives you +dmg and +dmg melee I think. Or maybe that's Brute? xD Happy day :}

You both are definitely answering not to the question that Chambz asked. xD

For sure - even i don't know. But imho it works like with BFG. It eats 40 cells, but fires only one shot, and SoaB applies only one time.

As I said, "I do not know about shotguns", and Railgun is definitely not a shotgun

Yeah, I was thinking that it uses 5 cells and shoots only once, meaning that it applies the bonus only once. But it's so good that it doesn't really matter. I killed city of skulls with it and ended up with more ammo than I started. >:D
