4: GUN INFO - STATS & UPGRADES:
----------------------------------------------------------------
This is your gun, there are many like it but this one is yours. As you shoot with !bang your gun reliability drops -0.1% per shot. As the gun's reliability drops, the odds of the gun jamming will slowly rise. Once the reliability of your gun falls below 60% the gun will stop working until you clean it. If your gun jams too much you either need to clean it (!shop 3) or upgrade it (!shop 7).

Best results: Build your max reliability to 90% or higher (2+ upgrades), then clean it regularly around 73%, and use the gun grease after cleaning.


[STARTING AS A NEW PLAYER]

BEGINNERS, lube techs and n00bs: Starting out be smart with your xp. Your first shop purchase should be a lucky charm (increased xp earnings for 24 hrs!). After that only buy ammo when all magazines are emtpy. Aside from a lucky charm and ammo, your next shop purchase should be a gun upgrade. Also do not purchase back a confiscated gun until you're over 500xp, just wait it out all confiscated guns are silently returned, for free, after a following duck spawns and is shot by another player.
  • Accuracy: 75%
  • Max Reliability: 80%
  • Mag Capacity: 7 rounds
  • Extra Mags: 3 mags
TIP: Buy gun grease after you clean your gun for reduced wear. With gun grease, reliability drops -0.01% per shot (-0.1% without gun grease)
  • Use !shop 3 to clean your gun. (30-50xp)
  • Use !shop 6 to buy gun grease and make reliability last longer. (15xp)

[UPGRADING YOUR GUN]

As you upgrade you gun, the cost and quantity of gun related items in the shop will change to accomadate your new gun stats.

When upgrading your gun (300-500xp), you gain 5% accuracy and 5% max reliability per upgrade, until you reach 100%. Also, each time you upgrade gun jamming will down.

Magazine upgrades (40-60xp) increase the total amount of rounds per mag. Start 7 rounds, max 12 rounds.

Additional magazines (75-100xp) increase the number of mags in your equipment. Start 3, max 5

[RETURNING CONFISCATED GUNS]

If your gun gets confiscated, there are a few ways to get it back.

6: In Game "Rules & Regulations"
----------------------------------------------------------------

In this game there are some settings, or "rules" that are configured by the botmaster. If you ever receive a message from the bot saying "based on current rules, this item is unavailable" or you have certain features that don't work, it is likely because of a rules setting.

Use !rules to view the current in-game rules.

[Gun Confiscation]

By default this rule is turned on. If this rule is active, anytime a user types !bang, when there is no duck around, the gun is confiscated and player xp is reduced. Likewise, any kind of ricochet accident that happens during hunting, also results in gun confiscation and xp reduction. If your gun has been confiscated you can buy it back from the shop with !shop 5.

If this rule is turned off there will be no gun confiscation, but xp will still be deducted for misses and accidents. Shop item 18: Accident Insurance will be disabled.

[Bullet Ricochet]

By default this rule is turned on to 5%. Botmasters can alter this percentage to raise or lower the occurance of ricochets. If this rule is active, ricochets can happen at the percentage set by the botmaster.

Likewise, if this rule is turned off then bullet ricochets will not occur.

[Searching the Bushes]

By default this rule is turned on to 15%. Botmasters can alter this percentage to raise or lower the occurance of objects in the bushes. If this rule is active, finding objects in the bushes will occur at the percentage set by the botmaster.

If this rule is not active, searching the bushes for objects will not occur.

[Infinite Ammo]

By default this rule is turned off. If this rule is active, all users have infinite bread loafs and ammo magazines. Players will still have to !reload but will not run out of magazines, likewise players will still have to use !bread to reload bread boxes, but will not run out of loafs.

[No Guns/Shooting]

By default this rule is turned off. If this rule is active, players will be able to befriend ducks only. All gun related items and commands are disabled. Players will only be able to use a reduced shop menu and function set containing items for gameplay that involves befriending ducks.

[Hunting Only]

By default this rule is turned off. If this rule is active, players will only be able to hunt and shoot ducks. All befriending items and commands are disabled. Players will only be able to use a reduced shop menu and function set containing items for gameplay that involves hunting and shooting ducks.
