Status: Current. Availability: Source-defined; acquisition is build-dependent.

Evidence: statically inspected repository definitions. No new automated gameplay, Editor, network or human acceptance is claimed. See the evidence guide.

Identity: core:1 · Aliases: ReinforcedPayload

Behaviour and interactions

Adds 8% of base gun damage per rank to the additive base-damage bucket. It does not increase fixed shield or healing grants. Compare weapon handling and conditional bonuses separately.

Tier: Common · Categories: Weapons

Restriction: No additional catalogue restriction; ordinary eligibility and event validation still apply.

Rank scaling from source

n = rank, q = rank − 1, l = log2(1 + rank), h = log2(rank), for rank ≥ 1. The excerpt below is copied as text, not executed. Primary/secondary meaning is defined in the resolver description and behaviour notes.

v.Primary=.08*n;break; // additive damage multiplier

Acquisition ranks have no authored balance cap; integer/float representation and bounded runtime effect rules still apply. Spare Charge is ranked per selected normal active. Run upgrades survive stage travel and downing, and clear at final run end.
