The drill is very similar to the chainsaw, sacrificing some damage for range.
The medium reach weapons are the drill and blade.
The shortest reach weapon is the chainsaw, dealing the highest damage of the 3 stationary drills. There are currently 4 types of melee weapons as shown below: Melee weapons deal damage only upon touching chassis or wheels directly, aka perfect for CQB (Close Quarters Combat). For example, you cannot equip any 10 power weapon on a chassis that can only hold 9 power. The chassis must have enough spare power to be able to equip the weapon. Power - The power number shows how much power a weapon or a gadget takes to equip on a chassis.For example, a laser with 400 Attack actually does 1000 damage per shot, due to its slow reload time of 2.5 seconds. Attack - The damage number in-game is in terms of Damage Per Second, or DPS.The maximum level is based on the number of stars in that particular tier: As with other spare parts, weapons have a tier (Wood, Metal, etc.), a number of stars (1 to 5), and a level (always 1, can be increased by fusing parts). There are 9 different weapon types in the game, split between melee and ranged. Weapons can be attached to your chassis and are used to damage your opponent in battle.
