Assault Cannon compendium

Recommended Posts

There are 2 Orange cannons I saw in beta that I haven't been able to find so far.

 

The first one has a triangular head on the end of the barrel.

 

 

The second one has 2 barrels and and basically looks like someone ripped one of the turret pods off of the milenium falcon. (There is more than one gun with two barrels, so here's a picture to clarify. The assault cannon in this picture: http://i.imgur.com/vVpRl.jpg )

 

2 Barrel one also comes from the pvp weapons vendor on "The Fleet" level 42 to use, just got it yesterday.

Unfortunately I don't remember where I got it, might have been a reward from class quest at some point.

 

And another (not with 2 barrels) one I picked up recently, from a heroic mission (think it was from Cyber Mercenaries) on Voss:

This is a great idea. As someone pointed out earlier, one of the major differences between the different weapons is their sounds. I read somewhere that there are 7 different assault cannon sounds. It would be great if we could catalog those sounds, upload the sound files here and identify which weapons make which sounds. In my opinion, that would be something new and highly desired.

 

There is one assault cannon sound that I hear some npc guns make that I really want. I have heard some people from time to time using assault cannons in pvp that make the same sound but, when i check their inventory, it is always a green item. I really want to find an orange one with the same sound.

Cant vouch directly but there is one that looks much like that double barreled one that you can buy from the Specialist goods vendor on Tatooine.

 

Thsts correct. But the twin barrels are only short. Sadly, only 1 fires, made me rip the mods out to put in my old gun, and vendor the crap.

The Hammer station one should be one you are looking for. It sounds different to others, and as far as I have noticed there are only 2 different sounds.

 

 

The Champion Assault Cannonc shoots cyan bullets btw. Guess it's the same color for all Champion weapons.

So far I've "heard" 4 different sounds, the most common 2 are "sci fi" sounds.

 

There is this cannon called Searing Crusader I think (let me check)

Searing Crusader

Can't remember where I got it, but it has a very "natural/realistic" sound, like you could smell the gunpowder =)

 

There is another cannon, as a reward for finishing Chapter 1 that has like 5 barrels, and it sounds similar to Searing Crusader with asthma =)

 

I know very hard to describe sounds, will try my best to post some videos when I get home today

My favorite is the D-21 Rancor Striker! It's got the best sound out of all the guns, and it has a cool color + look.

I just got that one last night and I have to agree, I love it. I have always been worried about buying different guns because of what they might sound like, but I was quite happy with this one.

Firstly Id like to say, the thred is a great help to troopers and myself, and i will post what I find.

 

I am intrested in gettting the D-21 also.

 

what would make my day for SWTOR is a Clone Wars trooper Minigun. The gun has air time in Clone Wars seasion 1 episode 1 "ambush".

 

Best picture i can find of it

Can anybody confirm that the two custom armstech assault cannons are Dark Side only? I was crafting one until I clicked on the link and it said forbidden to Light 1 and above on both of them, losing three of my biometric crystal alloys in the process. :(

Try switching out the color crystal. That seems to be the only thing that limits alignments.

i know i am in the minority here but the one thing i hate most about my trooper is the giant gun... i hate it.

 

can anyone recommend the smallest assault cannon they know of? i can't stand how they look on my back.. they're too big.

 

You might try the Athiss Micro-pulse autocannon. It's not really small, per se, but it is not bulky. It seems very simple and slender in comparison to the other ACs in the game.

If I could find something like the Hammer Station AC (which I'm using now for appearance's sake) with the sound of the Searing Crusader (which has my favorite AC sound I've come across so far), I'd be golden.

Great idea, here's to hoping that they allow more choice and customization with the high-end gear. One thing that I'm disappointed about with the end-game cannons is that they all sound the same.

 

On the way to 50 I've really only seen maybe 4-6 different types of cannons with maybe 3 different activation sounds and I really hope they add more variety in future content updates. Getting cannons with unique skins and sounds from Operations would be awesome as opposed to just the generic models with a different color palette.

You read my mind.

I made the trooper for this sort of gun, and end up with spamming a weird blue ray (grav round) while using a ...pipe ?

I do hope they'll add minigun skins soon. Unfortunately, so far, I haven't seen a minigun.
