(Read the first IC, we're all in one, small shopping hallway)

Also, I thought all weapons we had started at 1 / 10? Most items you get at the first of the game aren't bumped past 3 / 10 initially, and most of the time it's 2 / 10 anyway, if we're using that system.

Some of the items would have several stats already jotted into them as base stats. They would not start at 1.

E.g.

Plasma Cutter
DMG: 4 / 8
REL: 5 / 10
RoF: 3 / 7
CAP: 6 / 10

Sorry, I meant no incredible upgrades to start with, due to them being standard issue and just given out. I don't find it realistic for a Plasma Cutter being allowed when it can go toe to toe with security personnel using a pulse rifle.
