Game Data Strategy

This is a technical list of all the traits and what they do, just in case the trait selection screen isn't good enough for you.

All effects stack additively (so that three ranks in Ironman will give 30 additional HP), unless said otherwise. Multiple percentage modifiers (for example, Finesse and Son of a Gun) are added if from the same source, and the resulting speeds are multiplied together afterwards.

As of 0.9.9.3, the maximum level of basic traits has been increased (called "extended max" on this page). Upon reaching level 12, all traits that have a standard max of 3 can be increased to a max of 5, and all traits that have a standard max of 2 can be increased to a max of 3.

Contents

Basic Traits

All basic traits can be picked from the start, IE they don't require anything.

Ironman

Shorthand Iro
Max. Rank: 3
Extended Max. 5
Unlocks None
Effect 1 Max health and current health are increased by 10 per rank. With no points in Iroman, a player begins with 50 HP.
Effect 2 Each level of Iroman gives +10% inherent resistances to bullet, shrapnel, and melee damage, which will stack on resistances from armor and other sources like berserk.

Finesse

Shorthand Fin
Max. Rank: 2
Extended Max. 3
Unlocks Juggler (1 rank), Whizkid (2 ranks)
Effect Attack time is decreased by 15% per rank.

Hellrunner

Shorthand HR
Max. Rank: 2
Extended Max. 3
Unlocks Dodgemaster (2 ranks)
Effect 1 Movement time is reduced by 15% per rank.
Effect 2 Dodging chance is increased by 15% per rank.

Tough as Nails

Shorthand TaN
Max. Rank: 2
Extended Max. 3
Unlocks Badass (2 ranks)
Effect The player's inherent protection is increased by one per rank (applies after protection from armor in damage calculation).

Son of a Bitch

Shorthand SoB
Max. Rank: 3
Extended Max. 5
Unlocks Triggerhappy (2 ranks)
Effect One extra damage is dealt per attack per rank. For weapons that fire multiple shots, the effect is applied to each shot.

Son of a Gun

Shorthand SoG
Max. Rank: 3
Extended Max. 5
Unlocks Dualgunner (2 ranks)
Effect Pistols (or pistol-type weapons) fire 20% faster and deal one more damage per shot, per rank. (Note that the minimum time weapon firing time is 0.1s, regardless of bonuses.)

Reloader

Shorthand Rel
Max. Rank: 2
Extended Max. 3
Unlocks Shottyman (2 ranks)
Effect Reload time of all weapons is reduced by 30% per rank.

Eagle Eye

Shorthand EE
Max. Rank: 3
Extended Max. 5
Unlocks Intuition (2 ranks)
Effect Your accuracy is increased by two points per rank.

Brute

Shorthand Bru
Max. Rank: 3
Extended Max. 5
Unlocks Berserker (2 ranks)
Effect Melee attacks (either with fists or a melee weapon) deal three more damage and melee accuracy is increased by two points, per rank.

Advanced Traits

Juggler

Shorthand Jug
Max. Rank: 1
Prerequisite Finesse (1 rank)
Effect Swapping weapons takes no time, working with any sort of weapon swapping.

Berserker

Shorthand Ber
Max. Rank: 1
Prerequisite Brute (2 ranks)
Effect 1 Each successful melee hit adds to a berserk "counter". When the counter reaches four (or less, if there are other monsters within your vision) then you will gain 20 actions' worth of the berserk effect.
Effect 2 Whenever you are harmed by a single source of damage equal to at least 10 HP and one-third of your nominal maximum health, you will gain 20 actions' worth of the berserk effect. Both effects' gain is less than twenty relative to the amount of berserk time you currently have (peaks at 100).

Dualgunner

Shorthand DG
Max. Rank: 1
Prerequisite Son of a Gun (2 ranks)
Effect 1 If you have a pistol in both the weapon and prepared slots, you will fire both at the same time at 120% of the normal firing time. If wielded pistols have different firing speeds, the mean is used before multiplication.
Effect 2 Allows the reloading of pistols in both hands at once using the alternate reload key.
Effect 3 If your equipped and prepared weapons are both pistols, then swapping them takes zero time.

Dodgemaster

Shorthand DM
Max. Rank: 1
Prerequisite Hellrunner (2 ranks)
Effect The first dodge between each of the player's moves will automatically succeed.

Intuition

Shorthand Int
Max. Rank: 2
Prerequisite Eagle Eye (2 ranks), or Scout class
Effect 1 Lever descriptions are added. The first rank gives a general description, and the second rank exactly tells you what it does.
Effect 2 Certain objects on every floor are visible. The first rank reveals powerups, and the second rank reveals the position of enemies out of Vision within radius of sight +2.

Whizkid

Shorthand WK
Max. Rank: 2
Extended Max. 3 (Technicians only)
Prerequisite Finesse (2 ranks), or Technician class
Effect Increases the number of available mod slots for ranged weapons by 2 per rank, while increasing the available mod slots of melee weapons, armors, and boots by 1 per rank. This also allows advanced assemblies with the first rank and master assemblies with the second. The second rank of Whizkid additionally allows any assemblies to be modded once, while the third rank will allow a second mod to be added to any assembly (except for those created with a unique that have a one mod limit).

Badass

Shorthand Bad
Max. Rank: 2
Prerequisite Tough as Nails (2 rank), or Marine class
Effect 1 The first rank allows the player to retain boosted health up to 150% before health decay kicks in, and the second rank allows the player to retain boosted health up to 200% without any health decay.
Effect 2 Any knockback the player sustains is reduced by one tile, per rank.

Shottyman

Shorthand SM
Max. Rank: 1
Prerequisite Reloader (2 ranks)
Effect Shotgun-type and explosive-type weapons in the weapon slot can be reloaded by moving.

Triggerhappy

Shorthand TH
Max. Rank: 2
Prerequisite Son of a Bitch (2 ranks)
Effect Gives an extra shot per rank for all weapons that fire 3 or more shots per action.
