list of weapon damage, heat, range, and recovery time?

Post by Knotanalt »

I'm playing through again now and it's maddening to me to not know the exact specs of weapons and I can't find a manual on replacement docs.

Anyone know a list that works for mercenariess? I see several lists but they are all conflicting. Of course if there's a manual out there I think it has this info (though I'm not certain).

There is no manual that has accurate ranges.

The closest thing we have is this and it is not for mercs.

The games mechlab though should tell you ranges.

This one seems familiar I think that's what I remember from the old manul but it's incomplete. I'm pretty sure that it's 150 for machineguns, too.

Is there some way to access the mechlab in mercenaries? When I choose customize it doesn't show range or number of heat sinks, though I infer now that there's supposed to be 10 built in heat sinks for engines regardless of the size of the mech. And I read somewhere you generate 1 heat per ten tons so a 50 ton mech will dissipate 5 heat with no extra heat sinks. Or something like that.

I also don't get info on range or anything in the buy sell area.

It's very frustrating, especially with clam weapons which I know have much different ranges and heat signatures.
