Weapons and Equipment

There are various weapons and pieces of equipment available to players. In most game modes, players must choose an item for the melee, primary weapon, secondary weapon and equipment slots. Different classes have different weapon and equipment available to them, although some items are available to multiple classes. Different weapons have different attributes, such as varying damage, speed and ammunition capacity.

Melee

Weapons and equipment in the Melee slot are short range and intended for close combat or digging. They use no ammunition.

Item	Image	Available to	Notes
Combat Knife		Commando, Marksman	Very effective melee weapon. Slow, but causes 80 damage per hit. Makes for a poor digging tool due to low block damage
Pickaxe		Marksman, Engineer, Miner, Medic	High speed, and removes a single block per hit. Causes 40 damage per hit on other players
Spade		Commando, Specalist	Digging tool that damages two blocks per hit. Can remove terrain blocks in one hit and player placed blocks in two hits. Poor weapon due to very low player damage
Super Spade		Miner	Extremely effective digging tool that removes a cube of blocks three squares high and wide and two squares deep. Has average player damage
Zombie Hands		Zombie	Only available to the Zombie in the Zombie game mode. Have high damage and long reach. Extremely effective at digging
Classic Spade		Deuce	Only available to the Deuce in the Classic CTF game mode. Using left click allows for quick digging, whilst right click removed three blocks per hit making it useful for tunnelling
Crowbar		Gangster	Only available to the Gangster in the VIP and Territory Control game modes. Destroys a single block per hit. Average damage, dealing 80 damage per hit.

Primary Weapon

The main weapons available to each class.

Item	Image	Available to	Notes
Bolt-Action Rifle		Marksman	High magnification scope and damage making it a good weapon for sniping - a headshot is an instant kill against any class. Requires reloading after each shot
Double Barrel Shotgun		Miner, Medic	Shoots multiple bullets simultaneously which spread outwards in a cone. Extremely high damage at short range, but near useless at medium or long range
Minigun		Commando	Extremely high rate of fire and high damage, but inaccurate at long range. Takes a short time to "spin up"
Pump-Action Shotgun		Miner	Shoots multiple bullets simultaneously which spread outwards in a cone. High damage at short range, but near useless at medium or long range
Semi-Auto Rifle		Marksman	Lower damage and scope magnification than the Bolt-Action Rifle, but with a higher rate of fire. Good all round weapon
SMG		Engineer, Specialist	High rate of fire and average damage. Useful at short, and with the use of the sights, medium range, but requires reloading often
Classic Rifle		Deuce	Only available to the Deuce in the Classic CTF game mode. Good all-round weapon with high damage and long range, but a relatively slow rate of fire
Classic SMG		Deuce	Only available to the Deuce in the Classic CTF game mode. High rate of fire, but average range, damage and ammo capacity
Classic Shotgun		Deuce	Only available to the Deuce in the Classic CTF game mode. Very high damage, but short range

Secondary Weapon

The secondary weapons available to each class.

Item	Image	Available to	Notes
Block Cannon		Engineer	Uses blocks from the players block wallet as ammunition, which land on the ground if they do not hit another player. Commonly used for creating bridges or pathways. Poor weapon due to low damage and flight speed1
Drill Cannon		Miner	Fires a drill which causes massive block damage, and explodes after a short distance. Often used to quickly create tunnels, or cause damage to structures. Poor weapon as it is hard to aim, has a slow reload speed, and a small ammunition capacity, but has high player damage
Pistol		Marksman	Average rate of fire, damage and accuracy. More effective at close range than the rifles available to the Marksman
Rocket Turret		Engineer	Placed on the ground, will shoot at enemy players when they come into range
RPG		Commando	High damage, but low ammunition capacity and flight speed. Good at medium range
Triple Barrel RPG		Commando	Low player damage and flight speed, but can fire three shots in quick succession. High block damage.
Snub Nosed Pistol		Gangster	Only available to the Gangster in the VIP and Territory Control game modes. Low damage and rate of fire, with a high reload speed. Has a low magnification sight that makes it somewhat effective at medium range
