Description

"Charges up while the fire button is pressed and discharges when the fire button is released."

Flavor Text

"The official Horzine version of the husk cannon. This model is 95% guaranteed not to explode."

Technical Information

Uncharged projectile does 40 points of impact and 60 points of the explosive damage within 100 units radius (1 unit = 1cm). Every 0.2s of charging it gains 1 point of charge power up to 5 points after charging the Cannon for 1 second. As weapon charges it does more damage, gets bigger radius and more incap power, all according to formulas:

Damage = base damage x (1 + Charges x 0.8)
Radius = base radius x (1 + Charges x 0.6)
Incap power = base power x (1 + Charges x 0.22)

Important Note: Only builds Charge Power when player holds the fire button. It is mandatory to hold the button in order to improve the stats of the projectile.

Husk Cannon gains 1 point of the charge power per 0.2s of charging (starting from 0). Projectile itself cannot be released right away, instead it fires within 0.223s intervals. Pressing and releasing the fire button right away will provide no charge power at all by the moment of the projectile release time.

Base impact damage = 40, base explosive damage = 60, base radius = 100.

Hold time of 0-0.2s: Damage = 100, Radius = 100. Damage Per Minute: 100 x (60 / 0.223) = 26905.

Hold time of 0.2-0.223s: Damage = 180, Radius = 130. Damage Per Minute: 180 x (60 / 0.223) = 48430.
Hold time of 0.223-0.4s: Damage = 180, Radius = 130. Damage Per Minute: 180 x (60 / 0.446) = 24215.

Hold time of 0.4-0.446s: Damage = 260, Radius = 160. Damage Per Minute: 260 x (60 / 0.446) = 34977.
Hold time of 0.446-0.6s: Damage = 260, Radius = 160. Damage Per Minute: 260 x (60 / 0.669) = 23318.

Hold time of 0.6-0.669s: Damage = 340, Radius = 190. Damage Per Minute: 340 x (60 / 0.669) = 30493.
Hold time of 0.669-0.8s: Damage = 340, Radius = 190. Damage Per Minute: 340 x (60 / 0.902) = 22616.

Hold time of 0.8-0.902s: Damage = 420, Radius = 220. Damage Per Minute: 420 x (60 / 0.902) = 27937.
Hold time of 0.902-1.0s: Damage = 420, Radius = 220. Damage Per Minute: 420 x (60 / 1.115) = 22600.

Hold time of over 1s: Damage = 500, Radius = 250. Damage Per Minute: 500 x (60 / 1.115) = 26905.

Ground Fire:
Damage = 3, Radius = 1.5m, No falloff, Duration = 4s, Interval = 0.5s.

Afterburn:
DOT (projectile impact): Duration = 2.5s, Interval = 0.5s, Damage scale (of current explosive projectile damage) = x0.1.
DOT (ground fire): Duration = 5s, Interval = 1s, Damage scale = x0.5.

Rate Of Fire (theoretical, maximum possible, without charging): 60 / 0.223 = 269, where 0.223s is the minimum interval between shots.
Rate Of Fire (theoretical, maximum possible, all shots fully charged): 60 / 1.115 = 53, where 1.115s is the time that it takes to fully charge the Cannon, note that the actual time is 1.0s, however player have to wait 0.115s more until 5th firing interval expire and the projectile can be released.

Reload Time = 2.71s.
Reload Time (elite) = 1.92s.

Equip Time = 0.84s.
Putdown Time = 1.27s.

Weapon Powers:
Burn power (ground fire) = 2.5.
Burn power (projectile impact) = 50.
Burn power, per DOT tick = 15.5.
Knockdown power (projectile impact) = up to 50.
Melee hit power (projectile impact) = up to 50.
Stumble power (projectile impact) = up to 170.

Upgrades

Upg1 (1500): Base damage x1.1, Base weight + 1.

Notes

• Players have 90% resistance to its explosive damage and do not take and DOT from it.
• Damage, radius and incap power scales up as the weapon charges. Time to fully charge - 1 second.
• Ground Fire spawned only when fully charged.
• Does not spawn Ground Fire on impact with ZEDs / humans.
• Afterburn damage depends on how powerful the shot is.
