Range is also another factor that must be taken into consideration. V. Armor is an important characteristic to watch over and can be useful in gauging what attack to use against an enemy. The weapons of VOOT are of many different varieties and have different capabilities. However, they tend to be of a couple of categories and can have the abilities of more then one category. AS stated above, no lockon means that the weapon will simply fire forward.
Different weapons have different degrees of homing leading to a difference in arc as well as speed.
Due to the lack of homing ability, these weapons will often do quite a bit if not immense amount of damage. Front fire weapons also tend to ignore V. Armor. Front fire weapons are harder to use and take some practice. They don't do very much damage but are the most commonly used attack. Projectile weapons also tend to be affected by V. Armor at long distances.
