Nick Bain Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Hey there everyone this is just a tread to see what you guys think is the best range weapon. Please list you're favorite weapon and why. This thread is also to help me out(and any others) who are a bit confused on which ranged weapon works the best. Quote
NightKev Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Probably the Archangel's Smite from EE2, otherwise the Mining Laser from IC2 if EE is disabled. Quote
The_DarthMoogle Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Grab four guys and set up a cannon post on the hill. Two guys set up cannons, two with mining lazors set to explosive (moar damage) We have all major armours disabled, so fights can get pretty intense. Quote
OmegaJasam Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 A frame based, auto-reloading multishot nuke gatling, possably using jump tracks to launch them even further. If possable Quote
Industrial Miner Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 If Balkon's Weapons is installed with everything enabled (disabling some weapons in the config file causes crashes if you do this), put ammo inside a dispenser and put it on a fast timer. Quote
Sacrieur Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Attach said cannon to a flying airship equipped with its own nuke manufacturing plant. Quote
Moderators Munaus Posted October 30, 2012 Moderators Posted October 30, 2012 I'm quite fond of javelins from balkons. They remind me so much of javelins from my character in Mount & Blade. Quote
The_DarthMoogle Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 I'm quite fond of javelins from balkons. They remind me so much of javelins from my character in Mount & Blade. Yeah, but two diamond ones to kill your average spider is a bit much. Quote
Barobutte Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 You guys have all fallen into the same trap of violence and weakness. The best ranged weapon is communication. A musket might do amazing long-range damage but your enemy will re-spawn and the hate will continue. Talk to them, make friends with them (at long range) and you will find not only victory but friendship. Quote
The_DarthMoogle Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 That doesn't sound very fun to me. That sounds pretty damn awesome. Keep your friends close and your enemies closer. Quote
Sacrieur Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 Quintessential stupid good. Players who respawn without armor or anything are not a threat :3 Quote
OmegaJasam Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 Plus, if your gun is big enough, you'll trash the spawn area so much they'll not be able to escape Building a small bomber that flys around near wold hight and drops nukes would be pritty obnoxious. Espeaclly if you write it in such a way that it changes position randomly, and the only time you can know it's position is when it is at it's target Honestly, robots and frame machines are probably the deadlyest. Infinate range, computer controlled, massive destruction potential. But thats presuming the EE tools are meele weapons. Quote
LazDude2012 Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 Turtles. Turtles with a location program and an inventory of nukes. The single most dangerous long range weapon. All you need to do is program it a bit, go to a location, deploy nuke, redstone signal. Rinse, repeat. Quote

All you need to do is program it a bit, go to a location, deploy nuke, redstone signal. Rinse, repeat. That is absolutely amazing! I salute you! If your short on nukes, TNT could do a nice bit of damage too. And if you want to steal everything in a house, consider the NOVA series. Quote
Smeelio Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 I think someone figured out how to direct a nuke's explosion using a forcefield, like a Nuclear Death Ray, as he called it. That, on some sort of vehicle, would be epic. Quote
progrendon Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 RP2 block breakers brake lots of crystal chests full of course simultaneously sever wide lag bomb infinet range have fun mods Quote
lukeb28 Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 RP2 block breakers brake lots of crystal chests full of course simultaneously sever wide lag bomb infinet range have fun mods When I was messing around with force fields, I found that they cause a tone of lag. When a friend and I set one to max size, it lagged the server so badly that if forced half the people on it out of game. Set up a few on max size with timers and you can destroy a server! Quote
lukeb28 Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 If you don't want to destroy your server however, I think the turtle and nuke combo is the best way to go. Good thread by the way. Quote
okamikk Posted December 12, 2012 Posted December 12, 2012 best ranged conventional weapon is probably the musket, for non conventional, try four stacks of sticky dynamite Quote
lukeb28 Posted December 12, 2012 Posted December 12, 2012 best ranged conventional weapon is probably the best You didn't specify any weapons. Mind clarifying? Quote
okamikk Posted December 12, 2012 Posted December 12, 2012 You didn't specify any weapons. Mind clarifying? damnit brain, cooperate next time! Quote
Cheap Shot Posted December 12, 2012 Posted December 12, 2012 Writing "PENIS" with blocks on someones base. They will be able to see it as far as their draw distance is set. It will crush them emotionally. Quote
