Ranged Weapons[]

Fencer NC101 Hand Cannon Weapon Level: 0
Capacity : 12
ROF : 1.5 /sec
Damage : 100
Reload Time : 3.5 sec
Range : 600.0 m
Accuracy : A-
Personal artillery that fires armor-piercing ammo with a high rate of penetration. Would be impossible for a human to wield were it not for the invention of the power frame -- but even with a power frame, the recoil is quite severe, requiring upwards of a full second to absorb it. During that time, the wielder will be rendered completely defenseless, necessitating extreme care. Additionally, the muzzle may drift upward when firing, further necessitating careful adjustments for accurate aim.

This weapon comes fitted with a scope featuring one zoom level.


Fencer 30mm Gallic Heavy Cannon Weapon Level: 1
Capacity : 10
ROF : 0.3 /sec
Damage : 500
Reload Time : 3.5 sec
Range : 840.0 m
Accuracy : S+
Personal heavy artillery that fires special shells with excellent penetrating force. Easily one of the strongest personal weapons available, though its weight absolutely demands the use of a power frame. Due to its high caliber, the recoil on discharge could cause great damage to an unarmored individual, even leaving a Fencer equipped with a power frame defenseless for a moment as the shock is absorbed. Additionally, the muzzle may drift upward when firing, further necessitating careful adjustments for accurate aim.

This weapon comes fitted with a scope featuring one zoom level.


Fencer Powerdyne Weapon Level: 2
Capacity : 10
ROF : 0.8 /sec
Damage : 700
Reload Time : ---- sec
Range : 900.0 m
Accuracy : S+
A high-output beam cannon that's directly mounted onto a power frame. Discharges a highly destructive beam that cuts clean through any foe. Though its output is formidable, it requires a lot of electricity to recharge, meaning it cannot be reloaded on the field.
  • Powerdyne is equipped with a scope featuring one zoom level.
Fencer NCS1 Cannon Shot Weapon Level: 6
Capacity : 3
ROF : 0.5 /sec
Damage : 20x54
Reload Time : 8.0 sec
Range : 360.0 m
Accuracy : C
Personal dispersal artillery that discharges multiple armor-piercing shots at once. Absolutely terrifying to anyone within its range, but its range is notably quite limited. Because multiple shells are fired at once, the recoil is greater than average and may take some time to absorb. Additionally, the muzzle may drift upward when firing, further necessitating careful adjustments for accurate aim.

To use this weapon effectively, the back of your power frame will be equipped with a Jump Booster, allowing you to push the 'use' button for a boost jump forward.


Fencer 30mm Gallic Heavy Cannon M2 Weapon Level: 10
Capacity : 10
ROF : 0.3 /sec
Damage : 900
Reload Time : 3.5 sec
Range : 840.0 m
Accuracy : S+
Personal heavy artillery that fires special shells with a high rate of penetration. Easily one of the strongest personal weapons available, though its weight absolutely demands the use of a power frame. Due to its high caliber, the recoil on discharge could cause great damage to an unarmored individual, even leaving a Fencer equipped with a power frame defenseless for a moment as the shock is absorbed. Additionally, the muzzle may drift upward when firing, further necessitating careful adjustments for accurate aim.

This weapon comes fitted with a scope featuring one zoom level.


Fencer Javelin Catapult Weapon Level: 14
Capacity : 300
ROF : 20.0 /sec
Damage : 50
Reload Time : 3.0 sec
Range : 450.0 m
Accuracy : C
A device that discharges special alloy blades into the air, which then fall down in a predictable arc and inflict massive damage on the target. Due to the high arc, this weapon is capable of striking enemies who've hidden behind walls or buildings, though the need to mount each shot before firing does limit its usability to an extent. However, by equipping two Javelin Catapults at once, this shortcoming can be overcome to produce utterly devastating chain attacks.

To use this weapon effectively, the back of your power frame will be equipped with a Jump Booster, allowing you to push the 'use' button for a boost jump forward.

  • Javelin Catapult's stated ROF only applies to dual-wielded usage - normally, ROF is approximately 2.0/sec.
Fencer 25mm Light Canister Cannon Weapon Level: 16
Capacity : 9
ROF : 0.8 /sec
Damage : 180x6
Reload Time : 10.0 sec
Range : 270.0 m
Accuracy : C
A heavy cannon that discharges canisters. These canisters then disperse specialized shells within the target area, which bounce off of obstacles and create utter chaos. Though it's a destructive beast within its range, its range is fairly limited, and it takes a significant amount of time to reload. Additionally, the muzzle may drift upward when firing, necessitating careful adjustments for accurate aim.

To use this weapon effectively, the back of your power frame will be equipped with a Jump Booster, allowing you to push the 'use' button for a boost jump forward.

Fencer 30mm Gallic Heavy Cannon M3 Weapon Level: 33
Capacity : 10
ROF : 0.3 /sec
Damage : 2000
Reload Time : 4.0 sec
Range : 840.0 m
Accuracy : S+
A heavy cannon that fires shells with excellent destructive force and unmatched penetrating power. Easily one of the strongest personal weapons available, though its weight absolutely demands the use of a power frame. Due to its high caliber, the recoil on discharge could cause great damage to an unarmored individual, even leaving a Fencer equipped with a power frame defenseless for a moment as the shock is absorbed. Additionally, the muzzle may drift upward when firing, further necessitating careful adjustments for accurate aim.

This weapon comes fitted with a scope featuring one zoom level.


Fencer Javelin Storm Weapon Level: 36
Capacity : 15
ROF : 1.0 /sec
Damage : 50x30
Reload Time : 3.0 sec
Range : 450.0 m
Accuracy : C
An improved Javelin Catapult that can fire 30 alloy blades at once, which will then disperse and fall to the ground in a predictable downward arc, like a rainstorm of death. Unlike the Javelin Catapult, it is neither necessary nor specifically recommended to equip two at the same time, as this particular weapon has no ability to coordinate its rate of fire with a second model.

To use this weapon effectively, the back of your power frame will be equipped with a Jump Booster, allowing you to push the 'use' button for a boost jump forward.


Fencer NC104 Hand Cannon Weapon Level: 40

Fencer Twin Javelin Catapult Weapon Level: 52
Capacity : 350
ROF : 20.0 /sec
Damage : 90x2
Reload Time : 3.0 sec
Range : 450.0 m
Accuracy : C
An enhanced Javelin Catapult that discharges two alloy blades at the same time, which then fall down in a predictable arc and inflict massive damage on the target. Due to the high arc, this weapon is capable of striking enemies who've hidden behind walls or buildings, though the need to mount each shot before firing does limit its usability to an extent. However, by equipping two Twin Javelin Catapults at once, this shortcoming can be overcome to produce utterly devastating chain attacks. (Works well with a regular Javelin Catapult, too!)

To use this weapon effectively, the back of your power frame will be equipped with a Jump Booster, allowing you to push the 'use' button for a boost jump forward.

  • Twin Javelin Catapult's stated ROF only applies to dual-wielded usage - normally, ROF is approximately 2.0/sec.

Capacity : 7
ROF : 0.8 /sec
Damage : 200
Reload Time : 5.0 sec
Range : 1800.0 m
Accuracy : A+
A shoulder-mounted mortar that fires impact-triggered explosive shells at a set angle. Extremely effective against enemies spread out over a wide area. Its recoil will be absorbed by the power frame, but due to the massive force behind it, it may take some time to fully disperse.

This weapon comes fitted with a scope featuring one zoom level.
