Gladiators in the Eternal Arena have a wide variety of weapons available to them. At the start of every match (or after they've been fragged), all combatants are armed only with a machine gun and gauntlet. Depending on the arena they're battling in, other weapons may be available. Ammunition for each weapon can usually be found in the same arena. Collect a weapon (or its ammunition) by running through it.


 
[Damage 50]: The Gauntlet combines a whirling saw blade with a powerful electrical charge to create deadly close-combat weapon. This is also another weapon you won't ever run out of ammo with.

 



hud-machine.jpg (6133 bytes)[Damage 7]: Although not particularly powerful, this weapon has a high rate of fire and can be used to blanket an area with a suppressing hail of bullets.

 



[Damage 10]: One of the most common weapons scattered throughout the arenas, the shotgun delivers an instantly impacting shower of heavy pellets. Reloading causes a short delay between shots.

 



hud-plasma.jpg (5253 bytes)[Damage 20]: This powerful energy weapon unleashes a deadly stream of plasma pulses that rapidly consume its energy supply.

 



hud-grenade.jpg (4608 bytes)[Damage 100]: The time-fused grenades fired by this weapon are incredibly powerful and have a whole blast radius.

 



[Damage 100]: The rockets fired by this heavy weapon have a large blast radius enabling them to harm several targets at once. Be careful when using this weapon, since it's easy it include yourself in the explosion!

 



[Damage 8]: The most unusual weapon in the arena, the lightning gun unleashes a powerful stroke of electricity at its target.

 



[Damage 100]: This highly accurate weapon uses a linear accelerator to throw a depleted uranium slug at an incredible rate of speed. The gun's accelerator must recharge between shots, causing delay before it can be fired again.

 



[Damage 100]: The general consensus is that BFG stands for Big Fragging Gun. Well, that's the G-rated version at least. An evolution of the plasma gun, the BFG-10k is the dream weapon of every gladiator in the arena. It hurls devastatingly powerful bursts of fusing plasma to mow down enemies.
