The Weapon Plater is a special structure added in Patch 12.
Gameplay[edit | edit source]
The Weapon Plater allows players to plate select weapons in Solafite. Plated weapons gain a damage increase equal to roughly 30% of the original base damage.
Plating a weapon requires 6 pieces of Solafite ore and, once the process has been started, it cannot be interrupted. The Weapon Plater is fully self-sufficient, and does not require an external power source or have its batteries replaced. Plating a weapon will cause a Solafite Storm, attracting 2 waves of various mutants to the player's location, including more powerful types such as Legsies or Armsies. Should the structure be destroyed mid-use, the process will be cancelled and the weapon will be given back to the player unaltered, but the Solafite ore will be lost.
Although the significant damage bonus can be worth the relatively expensive cost for the structure, Solafite Plating should be done with care, as the player might not have access to their favored weapon and face a significant horde of potentially devastating enemies. Therefore, it is recommended to build the Weapon Plater in an specifically designated area, preferably away from the base, where the Mutants can either be held off or fought off with more ease.
