====== V-Blasters: V-Blaster ======
{{ :cw4:cmod:docs:updated_v-blaster.png?nolink&400|}}
:NOTE: The image is of the latest model of the **V-Blaster**, it was originally just "**Blaster**" but the stats are identical between the two except for the V-Blaster having a movement speed increase.\\

Ah, the humble blaster (which then got promoted to V-Blaster). It is a true icon of Vertu's presence within the CW4 universe. Much like the various technology such as the [[cw4:info:cannon|Cannon]], [[cw4:info:mortar|Mortar]], [[cw4:info:tower|Tower]] and so on, the V-Blaster has been distributed across the quantum multiverse into the hands of countless users. (Though to a far, far, less extent than the other constructs like the [[cw4:info:cannon|Cannon]]).\\
The V-Blaster converts energy into firepower and lots of it though at a significant inefficiency compared to [[cw4:info:cannon|Cannons]] and [[cw4:info:mortar|Mortars]]. They drink power to vaporize large amounts of Creeper.

A single V-Blaster firing non-stop will likely have an energy drain of 6 per second! A [[cw4:info:mortar|Mortar]] is likely to have maybe 0.8[(alias>Routh estimate)] and a [[cw4:info:cannon|Cannon]] have some 0.2[(alias>Routh estimate)] when constantly firing. This is a massive jump in energy demand and the damage per energy of the V-Blaster is horrific compared to the damage per energy of [[cw4:info:cannon|Cannons]] and [[cw4:info:mortar|Mortars]] although the shear density of firepower is unmatched. A squad of V-Blasters can take on even entire oceans of Creeper plus a bonus ocean so long as they have enough energy to drink. This makes the V-Blaster a very popular frontline unit for entrenched fortifications created by Rift Lab users.

===== Overview =====
  * <color #FF7F30>**A super heavy weapon capable of devastating vast amounts of Creeper so long as you have the energy production to maintain its massive demand.**</color>
  * Requires 300 Liftic to construct (and will do so rapidly).
  * Long range.
  * Drinks energy. (6 energy per second)
  * Massive DPS. (2.5 damage per shot, 4 radius, 5 frame delay / 0.166.. second delay)
  * Effective in destroying mesh (though it tends to be quite wasteful to focus on mesh over Creeper).
  * Very high rate of fire (6 blasts per second).
  * Floats! (Can land anywhere, even void).
  * Very fast <color #00FFFF>(ONLY APPLIES TO **V-Blasters**! NOT THE OLDER **Blaster**!)</color>. (Movement speed [[cw4:info:ern_portal|ERN Port]] upgrade increases its speed by the same amount as with any other normal unit like the [[cw4:info:cannon]], it simply has a speed boost that adds to the vanilla movement mechanism).
  * Unaffected by [[cw4:info:ern_portal|ERN Port]] weapon upgrades.
  * Can not dock [[cw4:info:ern_crystal|ERNs]].
  * 4 HP
  * When stunned, still operates but can not receive energy or move.
  * On destruction, explodes and damages Creeper.
  * Amazing late-game unit.
  * <color #FFA0A0>HAS A MINIMUM RANGE! Unable to shoot at Creeper right on top of it!</color>

<hidden LORE & HISTORY>
Vertu as some may know, is not a stranger to the Creeper Worlds. The first encounter with the many dimensions of the CW universe was all the way back in the CW1 universe. See [[cw4:cmod:docs:ac504307-18ee-4c6d-9a07-e7a070166594|V-Battlestation]]'s lore section for some lore and history on that. Some of you may even recognize the model of this Blaster even with its differences and if you do, well done. By far one of the most successful CW units to ever exist within any CW dimension is the Original Blaster. In fact, Vertu even has abducted many of these Blasters to study them, giving way to this Blaster here but with some upgrades like the ability to float like the [[cw4:info:beacon|Beacon]] but still inferior to the overhauled Original Blaster. That's right, Vertu has a bigger fish. There are even some rumors that the modified Original Blaster, code named "Bigger Fish" was a co-development between the Pioneer Fleet and The Grand City during their active alliance.
