There are times when running away from a fight is not an option. The combat system is [[Terminology#Robust.2FRobusting|robust]] but functional, and can feel weird at times. Sometimes your clicks are ignored. Sometimes you suddenly realise your [[#Melee_Weapons|melee weapon]] is [[#Cheap_Tricks|no longer in your hand]]. Sometimes your ranged shots [[Syndicate_items#Martial_Arts_Scroll|bounce off]] your target. Sometimes you even [[Guide_to_chemistry#Amanitin|suddenly die]] without knowing why. Some people reduce it to "click spaceman until horizontal", but there is a lot more to it. This guide may only cover some basics, but its intention is to help you win fights (or successfully commit murder as [[Terminology#Antag|antag]]), even against veteran players. <br><br>

The [[#Basics to Combat|practical part]] this guide was written april 2019. If you are reading it much later, some things may be outdated. 

=Basics to Combat=
Some good to know basics about the combat system. 
==[[Health]] System==
Get familiar with how [[Health|health]] works. Some important bits are:
* You have 200 max hp. 
* If you have over 40 total damage of any types you get slowed down until healed. 
* After losing around 100 hp (depending on [[Mood|mood]]) you enter [[Health#Critical_Status|softcrit]]. All you can do in this state is slowly crawl, and [[Radio_channels#Other_Communication_Codes|whisper]]. If this happens you have probably lost. 
* After losing 150 hp you enter a [[Health#Critical_Status|hardcrit]] state. In this state you will be [[Status_Effects#Unconscious|unconscious]] and slowly die. If you [[Radio_channels#Other_Communication_Codes|whisper]] you will say your last words and succumb to death.

==Damage Zone==
[[File:Hud-target.gif]] You can target specific damage zones by using the Numpad Keys. Each limb has its own pool of hitpoints. Hurting the head, legs or arms with enough [[Health#Brute|brute damage]] can cut them off when using a sharp weapon. There are a few [[#Cheap_Tricks|specific items]] that do certain things when aimed at certain zones. If you are unsure what to aim at, then targeting chest or head are the safest choices. Limbs are capped and will stop taking damage if hurt enough, sometimes making you waste damage by hitting them.

==Movement Speed==
To keep an upper hand in a fight, speed is very helpful. Stop or slow your enemy down with [[Health#Damage_Types|damage]], [[Makeshift_weapons#Bola|bola]], [[Status_Effects#Knockdown|slipping them]], [[#Cheap_Tricks|other tricks]] or many other methods and they will be easier to hit with both [[#Melee_Weapons|melee]] and [[#Ranged_Weapons|ranged weapons]]. There are also ways to speed yourself up, such as [[Guide_to_food_and_drinks#Nuka_Cola|Nuka Cola]] from [[Vendor#Food_and_Drink_Machines|drink vendors]]. 

==Stuns==
A fight is typically won by either stunning your enemy, which lets you [[#Cuffing|cuff]] them, or by hurting them to a [[Health#Critical_Status|crit]] state or [[Health#Death|worse]]. Learn what the different types of [[Status_Effects#Disables|stuns]] do. An accessible stunning weapon can be made by crafting a [[Makeshift_weapons#Stunprod|stunprod]] [[File:Stunprod.png]]. Also note, when the wiki or players talk about "stuns", they typically mean both the [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|paralyze]] and the [[Status_Effects#Stun|stun]] [[Status_Effects|status effects]]. Stun times varies depending on item used, but are usually around 4-15 seconds. You can reduce stun times on yourself in several ways, such as with certain [[Guide_to_chemistry#Narcotics|chemicals]], including from smoking [[Guide_to_chemistry#Nicotine|nicotine]]. Some stuns are conditional, such as the [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|paralyze]] from the [[Security_items#Flash|flash]] [[File:Flash.gif]], which only works if the target has no [[Clothing_and_Accessories#Sunglasses|sunglasses]] or similar protection. If your target is [[Guide_to_genetics#Mutations_and_Their_Consequences|immune to stuns]], you will usually have to damage them instead.

==Cuffing==
If you are unsure if your target is [[Terminology#Valid.2FValidhunting|valid]] or not, you should opt for a non-lethal takedown. Do this by somehow [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|stunning]] or [[Unconscious|knocking out]] your target and then [[Makeshift_weapons#Cablecuffs|cuffing]] it. If you do not have access to [[Security_items#Handcuffs|handcuffs]] [[File:Handcuffs.png]], you can easily craft [[Makeshift_weapons#Cablecuffs|cablecuffs]] [[File:Cablecuffs.png]] by activating [[Engineering_items#Cable_Coil|cable coils]] [[File:CableCoils.png]] in your hand. Cuff a person by holding cuffs in your active hand, and then clicking your target. Grab your target by ctrl+clicking it (works even while cuffing). Switch to [[Starter_guide#Help_Intent|help intent]] [[File:Intent_Help.png]] so you can move around easier with the cuffed person. The target is now completely under your control. Remove cuffs from yourself by [[Keyboard_Shortcuts#Hotkey-mode_Enabled|resisting]]. Remove cuffs from someone else by clickdragging their sprite onto yours and then click the cuffs in the menu that pops up.

=Melee Combat=
On /tg/station, you interact with a person in melee by being next to them and clicking '''on their sprite''' (and not on the tile they are standing on/moving towards). When your interaction connects, something will happen depending on what your [[Starter_guide#Intents|intent]] is and which [[#Melee Weapons|weapon]] you are wielding. Due to technical limitations, some clicks will not connect, so what you should do is spamclick that target while moving around and trying to avoid being clicked yourself. Every time you successfully [[Starter_guide#Harm_Intent|attack]] (or [[Starter_guide#Help_Intent|hug]]) someone in melee there is a cooldown before you can do it again. The cooldown is usually less than a second. 

==Unarmed Combat==
This guy [[File:Traitor.png|64px]] just broke into your department and whipped out an [[Syndicate_items#Energy_Sword|energy sword]] and [[Syndicate_items#Mini_Energy_Crossbow|energy crossbow]]. You are unarmed. You are at a huge disadvantage. What can you do? Let's say he somehow missed a shot with the bow, due to you dodging behind a machine or wall, and is now coming towards you with the [[Syndicate_items#Energy_Sword|e-sword]]. You have have a few options. 

===Shoving===
You enable [[Starter_guide#Disarm_Intent|disarm intent]] [[File:Intent_Disarm.png]] and read [[Starter_guide#Disarm_Intent|here]] about how shoving works. You can try to lure your enemy into a spot where you can shove him against an object, making him drop both weapons. Then shove him one more time on the ground to [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|paralyze]] him for 4 seconds. Then you must quickly left click his own dropped [[Syndicate_items#Energy_Sword|energy sword]] to pick it up. Kill him with it. 

===Grabbing===
You enable [[Starter_guide#Grab_Intent|grab intent]] [[File:Intent_Grab.png]]. For this to work your enemy must either be temporarily stunned or standing still and not paying attention. First you click your target once to passive grab. Keep spamclicking him, and if he doesn't move or "[[Keyboard_Shortcuts|resist]]" to break out of your grab, you will grab him aggressively. This will make you [[Stun|stun]] the target for a very short moment, making him drop any held items. Either pick up the dropped [[Syndicate_items#Energy_Sword|energy sword]] and kill him with it, or continue to [[#Tabling|tabling]]. 

====Tabling====
When having an aggressive grab on the enemy, you can quickly "table" him. Do this by clicking any [[Guide_to_construction#Tables.2FReinforced_Table|table]] [[File:table.png]] within your melee range, while still on [[Starter_guide#Grab_Intent|grab intent]]. This will instantly transport him to the top of the table, and [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|paralyze]] him for 4 seconds. If you are very fast you can attempt to [[#Cuffing|cuff]] him on the table. Or you can permanently keep him stunned by spamclicking him with [[Starter_guide#Grab_Intent|grab]] to aggressive again, and clicking the same table again. Over and over. You have time to deal a single punch on [[Starter_guide#Harm_Intent|harm intent]] [[File:Intent_Harm.png]] after each tabling. If you are on the receiving end of this treatment, all you can do is yell for help and spam "[[Keyboard_Shortcuts|resist]]", which will make you attempt to break out of the grab (with a 2 second cooldown or so). Resisting will not work the 4 seconds you are [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|paralyzed]], so your enemy must mess up the timing for you to escape. Tabling on a [[Guide_to_construction#Tables.2FReinforced_Table|glass table]] [[File:Glass_table.png]] will stun for a longer duration, but will break the table.

====Strangling====
If having an aggressive grab, you can reinforce your grab two more times by clicking the target on [[Starter_guide#Grab_Intent|grab intent]] [[File:Intent_Grab.png]]. The level 3 grab makes you grab his neck (deals no damage). Level 4 makes you start strangling him, causing [[Health#Oxygen|suffocation damage]]. This is a slow process, and the target can attempt to break free by spamming "[[Keyboard_Shortcuts|resist]]" or trying to move away. The target has 5% chance to break out per try (down from ~30% on aggressive grab) and takes 8-15 [[Health#Stamina|stamina]] damage every failed attempt. Strangling is rarely used unless the target is already [[#Cuffing|cuffed]]. The target can call for help while being strangled.

====Throwing Spacemen====
If you have an aggressive grab, you can also activate "throw" mode with '''R'''. Then left click somewhere to throw the grabbed person in that direction. Unlike with [[#Tabling|tabling]], you must throw the person away from you. Otherwise the thrown spaceman will hit yourself and [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|paralyze]] you both. Throwing him on top of a [[Guide_to_construction#Tables.2FReinforced_Table|glass table]] [[File:Glass_table.png]] will [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|paralyze]] him long enough to [[#Cuffing|cuff]] him. Throwing a person or a monkey corpse at someone is a reliable method to [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|paralyze]] someone for a moment. Throwing him at a [[Guide_to_construction#Walls|wall]] [[File:Wall.png]] or [[Guide_to_construction#Reinforced_Wall|reinforced wall]] [[File:R_wall.png]] will [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|paralyze]] him for a moment as well. Throwing him at an [[Guide_to_construction#Airlock|airlock]] [[File:Airlock.gif]] will make it open, if the he is wearing a valid ID.

===Punching and kicking===
You enable [[Starter_guide#Harm_Intent|harm intent]] [[File:Intent_Harm.png]]. Punching does a small and random amount of [[Health#Stamina|stamina]] and [[Health#Brute|brute]] damage. What you're hoping for though, is the random chance for a punch to cause a short [[Status_Effects#Knockdown|knockdown]]. Keep clicking your target with punches until this happens. Then quickly pick up the dropped [[Syndicate_items#Energy_Sword|energy sword]] before he does, and kill him with it (you know the drill). If the target has no weapon to pick up, you can keep clicking the prone target with fists to ''kick'' him instead, which simply deals 1.5-15 [[Health#Brute|brute]] damage.

==Using Melee Weapons==
Fighting with [[#Melee Weapons|melee weapons]] works similarly to fighting [[#Unarmed_Combat|unarmed]]. You click the enemy while holding a melee weapon in your hand and you will deal damage to them with that weapon. The differences to [[#Unarmed_Combat|unarmed]] fighting is that there is usually no randomness to damage dealt, and [[Starter_guide#Intents|intent]] usually doesn't matter. There are exceptions though. [[Security_items#Stun_Baton|Stun batons]] [[File:StunBaton.gif]] and [[Makeshift_weapons#Stunprod|stunprods]] [[File:Stunprod.png]] will only deal damage when on [[Starter_guide#Harm_Intent|harm intent]] [[File:Intent_Harm.png]]. Otherwise they will [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|stun]] harmlessly. To defeat someone by only using a melee weapon, you should generally use as strong weapon as possible to give the target as little time as possible to counter you. Most melee weapons can't [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|stun]], so there is risk involved unless you [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|stun]] your target before you start whacking.

=Ranged Combat=
Ranged projectiles in this game use pixel perfect movement. Shoot by having a ranged weapon in your hand, and clicking a target tile. The projectile will hit the first object in its path, but will pass over people who are [[Status_Effects#Paralyze|paralyzed]], [[Status_Effects#Sleep|sleeping]] or [[Health#Death|dead]] unless you click directly on their sprites. Sometimes when you're running your weapon will randomly not fire when clicking. This can be due to how the game engine works, so just keep spamclicking until you fire. 

==Ranged Intents==
There are some differences to firing guns between different [[Starter_guide#Intents|intents]]:
* On [[Starter_guide#Help_Intent|help]] [[File:Intent_Help.png]], [[Starter_guide#Disarm_Intent|disarm]] [[File:Intent_Disarm.png]] and [[Starter_guide#Grab_Intent|grab]] [[File:Intent_Grab.png]] intents you can fire at a target point blank by clicking directly on them. On [[Starter_guide#Harm_Intent|harm intent]] [[File:Intent_Harm.png]] you will instead do a melee strike with your gun, unless you aim behind your target. 
* On [[Starter_guide#Harm_Intent|harm intent]] [[File:Intent_Harm.png]] you can fire two guns at the same time. However, you will also have a random spread to your accuracy.

==Throwing==
This is a safe way to take down a target. Pick nearby items up and throw them at the enemy. Most items deal the same damage when thrown as when used as a melee weapon. Some, such as [[Makeshift_weapons#Spear|spears]] [[File:Spear.png]], will deal even more. First pick an item up, then activate "throw" with the '''R''' key. Then click where you want to throw the object. You can pick up some [[Guide_to_construction#Chairs|chairs]] [[File:Chair.png]] or [[Guide_to_construction#Chairs|stools]] [[File:Stool.png]] for throwing, by dragging their sprites onto yours. Throwing, like [[#Ranged_Combat|ranged combat]], uses pixel perfect movement, which means you can throw in any direction. You can also craft a [[Makeshift_weapons#Bola|bolas]] to throw at enemies, which will slow them down until they [[Keyboard_Shortcuts|resist]] out of it. Thrown objects do not count as ranged shots and can not be reflected by [[Syndicate_items#Martial_Arts_Scroll|sleeping carp]] users. You can counter having items thrown at you by activating "throw" yourself (with '''R'''). If your active hand is empty, you will then capture the next object thrown at you, instead of getting hit by it.

===Embedding===
Some items, such as the [[Makeshift_weapons#Spear|spears]] [[File:Spear.png]], has a chance to ''embed'' into a body part when they are thrown at someone. An embedded item deals additional brute damage and bleeding until the item is removed. Some embedded items can automatically fall out after a while. Else you remove an embedded item from yourself by [[Starter_guide#Controls|examining]] your body, and then clicking the underlined string of text that appears in the chat window. You remove embedded items from others with [[Surgery#Removal_of_Embedded_Objects|surgery]]. Many items, such as [[#Glass Shard|glass shards]] [[File:Shard.png]] and [[Guide_to_construction#Rods|metal rods]] [[File:Rods.png]] can only embed from higher than normal throw speed, such as from explosions. Some more items that can embed from normal [[#Throwing|throws]] are: [[Syndicate_Items#Energy_Sword|Energy sword]] [[File:ESword.png]], [[#Combat_Knife|combat knife]] [[File:Buckknife.png]] and [[Syndicate_Items#Box_of_Throwing_Weapons|throwing star]] [[File:Tstar.png]].

==Execution With Guns==
If you target mouth [[File:Hud_target_mouth.gif]], and use any intent except [[Starter_guide#Harm_Intent|harm]] [[File:Intent_Harm.png]], you will aim for the target's head with a slow progress bar, and fire once it finishes (if the target is still in melee range). Mostly useful for roleplay. It also deals 10 times more damage.

=Cheap Tricks=
There many tricks to winning a fight. These are only a select few of them:
* Aim for eyes [[File:Hud_target_eyes.gif]] and stab multiple times with a screwdriver make the target blind. Only works if target has no [[Clothing_and_Accessories#Eyewear|eyewear]]. 
* Alt-click a [[Fire Extinguisher]] [[File:Fire_extinguisher.gif]] to subtly empty its water on the floor below you. People chasing you may [[Status_Effects#Knockdown|slip]].
* Carry a bottle or beaker of water. Select [[Starter_guide#Harm_Intent|harm intent]] [[File:Intent_Harm.png]] and click on ground with it to splash the water on the ground, making people [[Status_Effects#Knockdown|slip]]. 
* Drag a [[General_items#Soap|soap]] [[File:Soaps.gif]] behind you to [[Status_Effects#Knockdown|slip]] people. 
* Drag an open [[Guide_to_construction#Lockers|locker]] [[File:Locker.png]] behind you. People accidentally clicking the locker will put their weapon in it. 
* If you know what you're doing (or is an [[Terminology#Antag|antag]]), learn how to make and utilize [[Guide_to_chemistry#Explosion|bombs]]. 
* You can [[Status_Effects#Knockdown|knock people down]] a couple of seconds by aiming at their head on [[Starter_guide#Harm_Intent|harm intent]] [[File:Intent_Harm.png]], and hitting them with a bottle of booze. 

<br>

There is much more to learn than this. Some things must come from experience, or from [[Ghost|observing]] others. Good luck out there, and don't hate yourself if you fail. Just try again another round. What follows below is a table of some common, or just robust, items that may help you win. Much of it is outdated, so don't rely on the numbers.

=Weapons=
This is not a list of how much damage each item does, just some of the best items and short notes on how to best use them. If you feel something should be added, please go ahead and do so, if it's robust enough.  This is in alphabetical order. While most items in the game can be used as a makeshift weapon, actual dedicated weapons are far more effective in harming, subduing or killing a target.

=Offense=
==Melee Weapons==
Most station personnel lack access to proper firearms, thus if push comes to shove most people will have to rely on the old fashion method of melee combat to deal with a attacker.

===Make Shift Weapon===
Almost any object on the station can be used as a makeshift melee weapon, however some are better than others. 
![[File:Brokenbottle.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Broken Bottle}}Broken Bottle
|15 Brute when breaking<br>9 Brute after broken
|Get a bottle from the Booze-o-mat, smash it on someone.
|Civilian
|Has to be broken first, to break simply change intent to harm then smash it against someone; by aiming for the head you will also knock them down if they are not wearing protective head gear. Smashing it spills its contents over the target so you could use it as a chemist to knock out your opponent, by filling it with chloral, and then beat them to death with it. Another reason why traitor Chemist is so great. If the bottle's contents are flammable (booze bottles, for instance) you can follow up by setting your opponent on fire.
|-

![[File:Butcherknife.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Butcher's Cleaver}}Butcher's Cleaver
|15 Brute
|Hack the Dinnerware vending machine.
|Civilian: Kitchen Staff
|Somewhat hard to get. Security will likely have their suspicions as the only reason to have this over the normal knife is its robusting power. Works as a ghetto circular saw in surgery.
|-

![[File:Saw.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Circular Saw}}[[Circular Saw]]
|15 Brute
|[[Operating Theatre]] [[Robotics Lab]] [[Autolathe]]
|Civilian: Medical/Research
|One of the most robust things you can find. Sadly they are rather uncommon and departments like to hang onto theirs, and security likes to take them. You can print one at the [[Cargo Bay]]'s autolathe, if it has metal to make it.
|-

![[File:Deathnettle.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Death Nettle}}[[Death Nettle]]
|Up to 30 Burn.<br>Damage depends on potency.<br>Loses a random amount of damage after each hit.
|Growing them at [[Hydroponics]]
|Civilian: Botany
|A red nettle that deals high damage and can paralyze. Requires gloves to wield, lasts for several hits (damage reduced with each hit) until they disintegrate (i.e. the evidence disappears). Experienced Botanists can make these. At low potency they are mostly a joke but at high potency they are as strong as energy swords.
|-

![[File:Extinguisher.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Fire Extinguisher}}[[Fire Extinguisher]]
|10 Brute
|Emergency Fire closets and lockers, emergency storage rooms
|Civilian
|Found across the station so they're aren't in short supply. Unlikely to be taken by security if they search you. They are also very useful if you get spaced, spray in opposite direction of where you want to go, and you'll fly away. With a limit of 50 units, that's 10 squirts using 5 per spray.
|-

![[File:OxygenTank.png|64px]] <br> [[File:N2Otank.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Gas tank}}[[Atmospherics items|Air/Oxygen]]/[[Medical items#Anesthetic Tank|Anaesthetic tank]]
|10 Brute
|Emergency lockers [[E.V.A.]] [[Toxins lab]] [[Atmospherics]] [[Operating Theatre]] (for anaesthetic tanks).
|Civilian
|Found across the station so they're aren't in short supply. Air and oxygen tanks are unlikely to be taken by security if they search you. You can use it for internals while having it in your hand (though it is recommended you don't use an anaesthetic tank).
|-

![[File:Fireaxe.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Fire Axe}}[[Fire Axe]]
|5 Onehand<br>24 Twohand
|[[Bridge]] and [[Atmospherics]].
|Civilian: Atmospherics/Command
|Most robust thing you can get from the Station. Has to be held with two hands to be used properly. Security will likely take it and it's a large object. Best to store this on your back. They are also rare, one is in Atmos and the other is in the Bridge, good luck breaking in before it gets taken. Can be used as a crowbar (while wielded) on unpowered doors, and is strong enough to break powered ones.
|-

![[File:Hatchet.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Hatchet}}[[Hatchet]]
|12 Brute<br>15 thrown
|[[Hydroponics]].
|Civilian: Botany
|Botanists use these to chop wood, they also are good at chopping limbs. Easy to conceal, and if you're a Botanist, security probably won't care if you're carrying one. Throwing it at someone deals 15 damage. Bonus points for finishing off an escaping enemy this way, Navajo-style. Works as a ghetto circular saw in surgery.
|-

![[File:Knife.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Kitchen Knife}}[[Kitchen Knife]]
|10 Brute
|[[Kitchen]] [[Autolathe]].
|Civilian
|Useful if you're the Chef, as Security are unlikely to give a single shit if they see you with it. Works as a ghetto scalpel in surgery. Can be hidden in boots.
|-

![[File:Nullrod.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Null Rod}}[[Null Rod]]
|18 Brute (base)
|[[Chapel]] and on the [[Chaplain]].
|Civilian: Chaplain
|Similar to the Circular Saw, but there's only one of them, and the Chaplain tends to keep it on him. It can destroy runes and protect against some cult magics. Can be transformed into a variety of religious weapons, with different characteristics.
|-

![[File:Pickaxe.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Pickaxe}}[[Pickaxe]]
|15 Brute
|[[Mining Dock]] and [[Mining Station]].
|Civilian: Supply
|Fairly robust, but it's very big, so it can only be stored on the back or belt slot. Miners barely use these anymore in favor of the Kinetic Accelerator, so it's mostly seen on the [[Labor Camp|Gulag]]. Mining drills and jackhammers all do the same amount of damage as a pickaxe.
|-

![[File:Minipick.gif|64px]]
!{{anchor|Compact Pickaxe}}Compact Pickaxe
|10 Brute
|[[Mining Dock]] and [[Mining Station]], in miner's equipment closets.
|Civilian
|Does less damage, but can fit in a backpack. 
|-

![[File:Survivalknife.gif|64px]]
!{{anchor|Survival Knife}}Survival Knife
|15 Brute
|Miner's explorer backpacks, Miner's explorer boots
|Civilian: Supply
|Miners spawn with a very robust knife that can fit in their pockets or boots.
|-

![[File:Scalpel.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Scalpel}}[[Scalpel]]
|10 Brute
|[[Operating Theatre]] [[Autolathe]].
|Civilian: Medical/Research
|Despite being not as good at the saw, this is still quite robust.  Jabbing people in the eyes occasionally stuns them and eventually blinds them, limiting their ability to run. Best part is you can have it your pocket and if you have access to this (not counting autolathe produced scalpels) security wouldn't care, unless it's covered in blood, of course. But even then they might assume you're just a bad doctor.
|-

![[File:Shard.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Glass Shard}}[[Glass Shard]]
|5 Brute<br>10 thrown
|Anywhere there's [[glass]] (read: everywhere).
|Civilian
|Extremely easy to obtain, just break a glass/reinforced glass pane or climb a glass table. Works also as a ghetto scalpel. You need gloves to hit stuff with it without cutting yourself, but you can still throw it.
|-

![[File:Screwdriver_tool.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Screwdriver}}[[Screwdriver]]
|5 Brute
|Most storage rooms and [[Engineering]].
|Civilian
|Its robustness doesn't come from the damage, but from its thin, pointed edge. Anyone not wearing glasses can have their eyes stabbed out causing them lose sight. Doesn't make them mute so they'll still scream, or might even fight back before you have a chance to blind them enough.
|-

![[File:Drill.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Surgical Drill}}[[Surgical Drill]]
|15 Brute
|[[Operating Theatre]] [[Autolathe]].
|Civilian: Medical/Research
|Only found in Surgery. Only used for dental implants, so it'll barely be noticed if it goes missing.
|-

![[File:BlueToolbox.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Toolbox}}[[Toolbox]]
|12 Brute
|Most storage rooms and [[Engineering]].
|Civilian
|Rather common. Althought it deals a moderate amount of damage, it's a bulky item, so you'll have to hold it.
|-

![[File:Welder.png|64px]]
!{{anchor|Welding tool}}[[Welding tool]]
|3 Brute when off <br> 15 Burn when on
|Most storage rooms and [[Engineering]].
|Civilian
|When switched on, it deals a robust amount of burn damage, but consumes fuel after every hit.
|-

!{{anchor|Toolbox}}[[Syndicate Items#Fully Loaded Toolbox|Syndicate Toolbox]]
|15 brute<br>18 brute when thrown
|Syndicate uplink and the [[Derelict]].

|Worth more for emergency tools than anything. Expect security to come cracking down unless they know you've taken a trip to the derelict.
|-

!{{anchor|Spear}}[[Spear]]
|10 brute in Onehand<br>18 brute when wielded/Twohand<br>20 brute when Thrown
|[[Makeshift weapons|Made by yourself]]
|Civilian
|A haphazardly-constructed yet still deadly weapon of ancient design. You can attach an explosive to it. If you attach one, Alt-clicking it will allow you to set a war cry when attacking with it.
|-

===Actual Melee Weapon===
Unlike makeshift melee weapons, these melee weapons are usually more reliable and robust, however most station personnel can't get access to them, as well as these weapons being very noticeable.

|Despite being very strong in melee combat, its activation is loud, very obvious to those around you, and a very big target for people looking for free gear. It also counts as a shield when active! Aim for the legs or arms. Use a multitool on one to turn on RAINBOW MODE (permanently). '''''TURN IT ON BEFORE YOU USE IT'''''

|3 Brute Off<br>34 Brute On
|Through a [[Syndicate Uplink]]
|Syndicate/Nanotrasen
|Has to be held with two hands while on. Four extra damage may not seem much, but it means one less hit to crit an unarmored opponent. When wielded it gives a 100% chance to deflect energy-based shots, like tasers and lasers. Like the energy sword, its activation is very loud. To create this, you must combine two Energy Swords together of any color (hold one in each hand and click the other sword) or receive it in a Syndicate Bundle. You cannot put two holodeck swords together. Use a multitool on one to turn on RAINBOW MODE (permanently).  '''''TURN IT ON BEFORE YOU USE IT''''' For obvious balance reasons, hulks cannot use these.

==Ranged Weapons==
Although often hard to get, these can put you at a huge advantage. Not just from being outside melee range, but also by shooting through windows and destroying walls. Guns rely on a stock of ammo, and those are hard to get, while energy guns use recharging units or just recharge by themselves.

==Sidearms (Ballistic)==
Ballistic weapons remain a popular weapon in the 26th century, typically however Nanotrasen prefer the usage of Energy weapons over Ballistic weapons, so don't expect to see many ballistic weapons on station.

=Defense=
To be good at combat, you must be able to survive an encounter with anything; Nuclear Operatives, Wizards, Assistants and such.  While some may say that the best defense is a robust offense (which can be true in some cases), knowing how to protect yourself is a vital skill needed to be [[robust]].

== Stuns and Incapacitation ==

Having the ability to stun at a moment's notice will protect you from getting robusted quite often (as long as you don't get stunned first).

==Armor==
Armor is a great passive way to keep you from getting hurt too badly in a fight.  Some jobs will have difficulty acquiring armor.  Some armor, like hardsuits, will slow you, as well.

Armor will reduce all damage of a certain type, on parts of your body that are protected by the armor. You will see ''"Your armor softens the blow!"'' when your armor reduces damage. The defense values are indicated by an armor's percent protection from different damage types, for example basic Armor has a melee protection rate of 50, as such it will reduce all melee damage to the chest by 50%.

Armor only protects the region that it covers on your body. No armor protects your entire body.
