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

Unlocks Badass (2 ranks)
Effect Armor is increased by one per rank (stacks with other sources of protection).

Son of a Bitch

Shorthand SoB

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 20% per rank.

Eagle Eye

Shorthand EE
Max. Rank: 3

Advanced Traits

Juggler

Shorthand Jug
Max. Rank: 1
Prerequisite Finesse (1 rank)
Effect Swapping prepared or quickkeyed weapons takes no time.

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 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.

Dodgemaster

Shorthand DM
Max. Rank: 1
Prerequisite Hellrunner (2 ranks)
Effect The first dodge during a given action automatically succeeds.

Intuition

Shorthand Int
Max. Rank: 2
Prerequisite Eagle Eye (2 ranks)
Effect 1 Lever descriptions are added. The first rank gives a general description, and the second rank exactly tells you what it does.

Whizkid

Shorthand WK
Max. Rank: 2
Prerequisite Finesse (2 ranks)
Effect Increases the number of available weapon mod slots by 2 per rank and armor mod slots 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 made afterwards to be modded once.

Prerequisite Tough as Nails (2 rank)
Effect For each level, increases the maximum health before decay by 50% and reduces knockback by one tile.

Triggerhappy

Shorthand TH
Max. Rank: 2
Prerequisite Son of a Bitch (2 ranks)
Effect Gives an extra shot for all non-shotgun, multiple shot weapons per rank.

Master Traits

Master traits have rather constraining requirements: in addition to needing a partcular set of basic and/or advanced traits, you also cannot have any of the "blocked" traits (listed before the prerequisites). Blocked traits cannot be chosen after choosing the master trait, nor can you choose any other master traits (even if they are technically inclusive of each other).

All master traits have one rank.
