Weapons

There are a total of 32 weapons in PAIN! They are sorted into 8 categories by type and four classes by power. The types are the normal keys 1 through 8 and types are (from best to worst) A through D. New weapon classes are gained by gaining different colored armor (green=C, yellow=B, red=A). You begin with the shotgun and the hammer, both class-D weapons. Weapon classes can be cycled with impulse 123 or by selecting the same weapon more than once. The following is a table of all the weapons in PAIN sorted by class and type followed by a detailed description of each.

Max ammo has also been increased along with ammo gained from some enemies:
Axes(50), Shells(200), Nails(200), Rockets(100), Cells(150)

Tools

Hammer

Your basic beat-em-upside-the-head weapon.
Cost: 0

Flare Gun

Will light your way and distract homing missiles.
Cost: 3 shells

Grappling Hook

Use this to hang from ceilings, walls, or your enemies as you rip them to shreds! Hold down to attach, pull, and hold. Let go to drop. You can change weapons while using the hook, but you must be on the hook to let go.
Cost: 0

Harpoon

This can also be used to hang from ceilings and walls, but unlike the grappling hook it will pull your enemies towards you!
Cost: 0

Axes

Axe

"Chop it up!"
Cost: 0

Vampric Axe

You will gain five health for each successful hit with this axe, but I wouldn't try this on any undead.
Cost: 0

Throwing Axe

Lob your axe across the room at someone, then go pick it right back up again.
Cost: 1 Axe

Throwing Flaming Axe

Torch your enemies! Throw burning axes that will light up any party... or zombie.
Cost: 3 Axes

Shotguns

Shotgun

Your trusty boomstick.
Cost: 1 shell

Super-Shotgun

Double-Barreled Action.
Cost: 2 shells

Chaingun

Rip your enemies to shreds at high speeds.
Cost: 1 shell

Sniper Rifle

For those who like to take their time. Hold the trigger to charge up and slow your movement for better aiming. You will hear a beep when you are locked on an enemy. The laser sight will give you helpful information on your status.

    light blue - ready
    white - reloading
    yellow - targeted
    dark red - charged
    bright red - charged and targeted


Cost: 15 shells

Lasers

Laser Gun

Fire short blasts of energy right up your foe's ass!
Cost: 1 cell

Super Laser Gun

Double your pleasure, double your fun. "Delete" your enemies.
Cost: 2 cells

Auto-Laser

High-speed energy action.
Cost: 1 cell

BFG

Awe yeah... this is one Big Fucking Gun! Experts will notice that it does not work like your "standard" BFG.
Cost: 20 cells

Nailguns

Nailgun

Fire huge spikes right into his forehead!
Cost: 1 nail

Super-Nailgun

Twice as fast, twice as deadly.
Cost: 2 nails

Poison Dart

Fire a tiny dart into your enemy and watch them die slowly. The effects of poison are cumulative, so the more darts, the faster they die. If you get poisoned, grab some health fast! It may cure you.
Cost: 10 nails

Spike Trap

A helpful little device. When fired this orb will fire nails at anything it passes. If the orb runs into something it can damage, it explodes in a shower of nails. If it hits a wall, it will stay there, firing nails at anything that passes by. The spike trap only has a total of 20 nails to fire, and if it sits dormant for too long, it will just shoot them all off and die.
Cost: 20 nails

Grenades

Grenade Launcher

Have a pineapple. They're from Hawaii =)
Cost: 1 rocket

Trigger Bomb

Toss a couple out and wait for someone to walk by, then hit "B" to Blow them to Bits.
Cost: 3 rockets

Proximity Mine

Stick one to a wall and run. They will arm with a warning "beep beep" and then explode if anything moves near it. Try sticking one of these on your friend's back instead of a "kick me" sign.
Cost: 5 rockets

MIRV

Multiple Independent Reentry Vehicle. Toss one out and watch it blast off and explode into ten smaller grenades that shoot out in all directions! Then again, maybe you shouldn't stay to watch.
Cost: 10 rockets

Rockets

Rocket Launcher

"I am a big man, yes I am. And I've got a big gun."
Cost: 1 rocket

Drunk Missile

Remember ROTT? Fires three missiles with very erratic movement. GREAT in open spaces with lotsa baddies.
Cost: 3 rockets

Drill Rocket

These things stick into what every they hit, spinning around and tearing flesh apart before finally exploding.
Cost: 4 rockets

Homing Missile

Will follow you almost anywhere. While it may be difficult, it's definitely possibly to avoid these homers. Run behind someone else and let them get chased, run around a couple corners until you're out of it's "sight", fire off a flare in it's direction, or just turn on auto-flare with impulse 20.
Cost: 8 rockets

Elemental Energy Guns

Note: Cells now recharge if you have the EEG, at least one cell, and no more than enough cells for the BFG.

EEG-Earth

AKA The Lightning Gun. Electrocute those sons of bitches! But don't fire this underwater; bad things will happen. Of course you could fire INTO the water and watch the gibs fly out!
Cost: 1 cell

EEG-Air

AKA The Air Fist. Fire huge blasts of compressed air sending enemies flying through the air!
Cost: 5 cells

EEG-Fire

AKA The Flame-Thrower. Anyone for some toasted shambler? Mmmm Mmm Good. Catch your foes on fire. If you get torched, find some water or a teleporter to get put out. This makes a nice bubble-blower underwater.
Cost: 2 cells

EEG-Water

AKA The Freeze Gun. Completely freeze your enemy for ten seconds, plenty of time to blast them into tiny chunks of ice! Firing this underwater is almost as stupid as firing the Lightning Gun underwater.
Cost: 8 cells

[Monsters] [Misc] [Impulse List]

Necromancy

You will gain necromantic abilities from the quad damage power-up. These powers last until death, or change of level. You can resurrect the dead with impulse 250, and you can sacrifice your undead using impulse 251 to receive a portion of health relative to the amount of damage they have endured. If your corpse is resurrected and you are still in it, your spirit will be forced out and you will be respawned. If you die, your minions are set free. Undead will automatically attack anything you attack or anything that attacks you. You may only have five followers at a time. If you try to resurrect more than that, you will automatically sacrifice your old followers.
Resurrection of corpses costs health (shown below in parenthesis).

Auto-flare is toggled with impulse 20 and costs 5 shells and 10 cells per shot.

BTW - No, not ALL the modifications are completely original, but the ones that aren't are generally re-coded beyond recognition (or close to it). However, I don't want to be accused of ripping code, so if ANYONE has a patch that they think I used, just mail me and tell me you want your name here and what the patch was and I'll put you on my credits page.
