[Archive] Tri-Barrelled Hellfire Cannon in Warhammer Online

Hashut’s Blessing:

In my cake. Guess where the cake is…

dedwrekka:

Personally, I felt it was a bit of a cop-out and the barrels aren;t long enough. not to mention, nobody has EVER been in range of either the Hellcannon nor Triple-barrelled Hellcannon, which sucks. I do however know that it's over 10K damage per hit (with either). The Triple-barrelled is indirect fire, but makes three shots, so good for groups.

Hashut's Blessing
I've hit quite a few people with both. Though the Tri-barreled one is better than the single one in WAR as you can hit more people, and ones you cannot see, with the tri-barreled. It's especially effective for taking out oil and the people manning (Dwarfing, Elfing, Orcing, Goblinining) warmachines.

I was meaning as the emplacements as I’ve never bothered to buy anything other than a ram :smiley:

What can I say, I like watching 5-7 large numbers float up to the top of my screen.

Kera foehunter:

does this break free and go rampaging if the crew get killed??

GRNDL:

Also, its definitely not anywhere near 10k a hit. At least around Tier 3, most of the siege weapons I’ve manned usually end up doing 300-600 pts of damage after mitigation and resists. Very disappointing really. It is rare that you get to hit with any of the engines at the outposts throughout most zones, but at PvP Keeps/Objectives they get a lot of use. And in some of the scenarios like Phoenix Gate.

Hashut’s Blessing:

Kera, there are no crew. They aren’t used unless a player (I.E. one of us) uses it. If it were in the tabletop game, then yes, you’d be correct.

GRNDL, the ones at the outpost do that. Chaos area, when it;s a quest to kill some NPCs, it does 10k.

Swissdictator:

To bad, it’d be fun to unleash those nasties by just avoiding them! Now how to drag them to Chrace…

Yeah, I remember those HB. When my DE was roaming the Chaos conflict to have some quick and easy quests it was about 10k of damage.

Hashut’s Blessing:

phew not just me going sane then :smiley:

Check out this cool video I found:

They only do 10K to ensure they do maximum damage to an NPC and kill it outright, that's not real damage. Its a blick - equal to whatever the NPC's hit points are or the maximum value of any HP in the game. If it took 500 million damage, it would report that instead. Their usefulness in PvP/RvR is questionable.

Hashut’s Blessing:

Good find. I tended to find that I couldn;t see any graphics for it firing though :smiley: I think I did once, lol…

Swissdictator:

They would make an awesome car alarm… just aim it into a yard belonging to someone else… in a different neighborhood.

Very cool find!

Time for a better computer. :P

Swissdictator:

On the plus side, if you convert it for your CD army, it can easily stand in for an Organ gun if you have to use Dwarf rules at an event not allowing CD rules… and it’d be VERY clear to the opponent.

Hashut’s Blessing:

Mr. Xander, if you’re offering to get me one :wink: I actually have Blue Screened three times today lol :smiley: And frozen 6…

I was thinking the very same thing swiss. Well, I was thinking it;d be cool to copy the double barrel set organ gun somebody converted, but using Hellcannon barrels. Anyone know where you can get the barrels separately?

Xander:

Mr. Xander, if you're offering to get me one ;) I actually have Blue Screened three times today lol :D And frozen 6...

Hashut's Blessing
Wow. I couldn't live like that! O_O

Hashut's Blessing
don't be mad, but it's in my tummy 'cause I eated it. :P

Xander, instead you live with a laptop screen that is wonky unless tilted at *just* the right angle ;)

At least it runs! :P

Hashut’s Blessing:

So does mine LD Well enough to play WAR and have seen this awesome thing, even if it made me feel a little cheated :smiley: (Back on-topic FTW!)

As for my laptop, I haven’t the money to get a new one and the morons on the “helpline” ketp saying it was a software problem, despite the fact we’ve proven it’s hardware lol :stuck_out_tongue:
