Grenade Crafting Experimentation Mechanics

Grenades and Mines appear to require a conversion on the values listed in their corresponding iffs for their speed attributes. According to the iff for C12 Fragmentation grenades the speed attribute ranges from 25 to 55. This translates to 2.5 speed to 5.5 speed delay. Experimentation on these item properties would reduce the speed delay value from 5.5 on down to the minimum of 2.5. This principal applies to the other grenade munitions as well.

Items Affected

1. Anti-Vehicular Mine
2. DRX Mine
3. XG Mine

Experimentation Lines

These items have 1 experimental line.

1. Experimental Damage

The Experimental Damage line has four experimental properties. The first of these is Attack Speed. Attack Speed depends on 50% SR and 50% UT. Experimentation on this line decreases the Attack Speed attribute on these items. The second property is Maximum Damage. Maximum Damage depends on 50% SR and 50% UT. Experimentation on this line will increase the Max attribute on these items. The third property is Minimum Damage. Minumum Damage depends on 50% SR and 50% UT. Experimentation on this line will increase the Min attribute on these items. The fourth property is Wound Chance. Wound Chance depends on 50% SR and 50% UT. Experimentation on this line will increase the Wound attribute.

Item Attributes

Variation Of:

This attribute spawns on any item that has had its base type name changed. For player crafted items this type change occurs when the player renames the item from the default given one. The name change can occur automatically as the player chooses a particular style for the item during the customization process or by manually renaming the item in the name field. After changing the name the item now indicates that it is a variation of the specific type that it originated as.

For more information about the Variation Of attribute, see General Item Mechanics

Condition:

This attribute is present on all weapons and indicates the current hitpoints remaining on the weapon. The left figure represents the current hitpoints on the weapon and the right represents the total max possible hitpoints. A weapon will begin to lose damage potential if it falls below 25% of the max possible condition. If a weapon reaches 0 condition it will lose its damage. Items at 0 condition cannot be repaired.

Volumn:

Represents the current container contents of the Item.

For more information about volumn counts, see Inventory Mechanics

Uses Remaining:

This attribute indicates the total number of times that this item can be used before it will be removed from the player's inventory. Mines are created with 5 uses per item.

Object Creator:

This attribute appears only on crafted items or looted components. The crafter's name is listed here.

Serial Number:

This attribute only appears on crafted items. This represents the alphanumeric code given to the item.

See General Item Mechanics, Using Schematics and General Crafting Mechanics for more information about Serial numbers

Armor Piercing

This attribute represents the armor piercing rating of the weapon. Some weapons have the ability to cause bonus damage in the form of armor piercing. Weapons that do not have this are represented as having none.

Attack Speed:

This attribute represents the value that will be used to calculate the rate at which the minefield will 'reload' mines. Once a minefield has been detonated (by a player moving through it) the listed attack speed rate on the mine will need to process before another mine in the field can be activated.

Damage

The Damage attribute is one of several category labels on ranged weapons. It contains the Type, Min, Max, and Wound attributes for these items.

Type:

Type refers to one of a number of damage variations found on weapons. There are a number of damage options available to weapons. These damage types come in the forms of kinetic, heat, energy, cold, stun, electricity, acid, blast and lightsaber damage. These damage types may offer special bonuses versus weak targets.

Min:

This attribute represents the value that will be added to the weapon's minimum damage range.

Max

This attribute represents the value that will be added to the weapon's maximum damage range.

Radius:

This attribute represents the area of effect around the target that will be encompassed by the weapons's effect. Anything within this area will be damaged by the effect. Radius varies depending on the item used. The radii for each mine is as follows:

1. Anti-Vehicular - 15 meters
2. DRX Mine- 8 meters
3. XG Mine - (Unknown) Possibly 5 or 8

Wound:

This attribute represents a percentage increase in the chance to cause a bleeding effect on a target using a particular weapon. For example if a base chance to inflict a bleed was 10%, and a 150% Wound modified weapon was factored into this, then the new chance to inflict a bleed will be 25%.

Transferred Component Attributes

Minimum Damge:

This attribute represents the value that will be added to the weapon's minimum damage range. Adding in Medium Warhead Mechanism, Warhead Fusing Mechanism, Warhead Stabilizing Device components will increase the Min attribute.

Maximum Damage:

This attribute represents the value that will be added to the weapon's maximum damage range. Adding in Medium Warhead Mechanism, Warhead Fusing Mechanism, Warhead Stabilizing Device components will increase the Max attribute.

Attack Speed:

This attribute represents the value that will be added, or subtracted from the weapon's Attack Speed value. Adding in Warhead Fusing Mechanism, Warhead Stabilizing Device components will increase the Attack Speed attribute.

Wound:

This attribute represents a percentage increase in the chance to cause a bleeding effect on a target using a particular weapon. For example if a base chance to inflict a bleed was 10%, and a 150% Wound modified weapon was factored into this, then the new chance to inflict a bleed will be 25%. Adding in Warhead Fusing Mechanism, Warhead Stabilizing Device components will increase the Wound attribute.
