Talk:Leech Gun

Damage Type/Resistances
I don't recall ever seeing the IMMUNE message when firing a base leech gun. I was using the gun quite a bit at the end of beta, but have not used it much at all since then, so I may have forgotten. In any case, I don't think the damage type for the base weapon is physical, as I believe it targets Kael just fine. (Obviously things immune to virulent damage are immune to the virulent leech gun.)

I also have yet to see any fire or ice leech guns. These may not come until later levels, but they also may have been removed with the switch to leeching. Anyone know for sure? - Squeg 18:00, 14 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Answering my own question, I did find an ice-based leech gun with a min level of 22, I believe. Squeg

Switch to leech gun from Density Field Gun
From the 7/24/07 patch notes, this gun is now a health-leeching weapon:

• The Density Field Gun is now a Health leeching weapon. When fired it will not only damage the enemy but will also leech health from the enemy and heal you. The firing animation has also changed.

So there should be something put in here to mention that. I'll do some testing tomorrow and see if there's a constant rate effect or if it's some other method.

OMG Ugly Table
-- CV 15:34, 19 August 2007 (EDT)

Here's an attempt at making it slightly better. However, there are some points nagging me. The table assumes different weapons can have different damage, but at the same time assumes all types are available at the same levels. We list clip size, but not ammo used per shot. Obviously these are higher-level issues, concerning all weapon tables. Do we want a template involved? - Dashiva 17:40, 19 August 2007 (EDT)
 * Yeah, the coloring and everything i re-did to how it looks below, but i agree, i think we probably need a template. It should be pretty easy with assuming there are no odd named ones.-- CV  20:47, 19 August 2007 (EDT)
