Skill Levels & Power-Ups
Each time you level up, you unlock a new power-up!
Lead your team to victory each mission as you master each power-up and dominate the arena. From Rapid Fire to decimating Nukes, playing with a Laserforce membership card has never been so addicting!
New players start here
LEVEL 1: RECRUIT
RAPID FIRE:
Send a burst of lasers flying at your opponents. When in rapid fire mode, hold down the trigger to fire rapidly for a variable duration.
Activates automatically when you deactivate 2 opponents without being deactivated yourself. [Costs 0 sp]
(Note: Once activated, rapid fire lasts for 100 shots or until your vest is deactivated.)
LEVEL 2: Gunner
Complete 2 missions with an average score of 1500 – 3000
INVULNERABILITY:
Armor up and wreak havoc! When invulnerable, your vest can’t get deactivated for 10 seconds.
Activates automatically when you deactivate a certain number of opponents without getting deactivated yourself. The number of opponents required increases by one after each time it is activated, starting with 3. [Costs 0 sp]
LEVEL 3: Trooper
Complete 4 missions with an average score of 3001 – 4500
PAYBACK:
Jump back into the fight immediately. When you’ve been deactivated, use “Payback” to reactivate instantly.
To activate, press in the feature button while deactivated. [costs 3 sp]
LEVEL 4: Captain
MISSILES:
Aim. Lock-on. Fire. Missiles can by fired at any player level 4 or higher. Aim, wait for the final lock-on tone to signal, then squeeze the trigger. Missiles score more points than a regular laser zap.
Complete 6 missions with an average score of 4501 – 6500
To fire, simply aim at an opponent. You’ll hear three distinct lock-on tones rising in pitch. On the third and final lock-on tone, pull the trigger. [costs 2 sp]
(Note: these lock-on tones are separate from the “target detected” beeps. There are usually two of those before the lock-on sequence begins. If you pull the trigger after the lock-on sequence begins, but before the third tone, your missile will miss and you will have still spent the special points to fire it. If you wait longer, the third lock-on tone will continue to repeat until the lock gets broken or you fire the missile. It is heat seeking, so firing on the third lock-on tone will hit its target. The targeted opponent's vest will sound an alarm the second the lock-on sequence starts. If they break the lock before you fire the missile, the lock-on sequence will need to be restarted.)
LEVEL 5: Starlord
Complete 8 missions with an average score of 6501 – 8000
RESET:
“And stay down!” Use this ability to send a second deactivation the last player you zapped.
To activate, press in the feature button while active and have under 20 sp. [costs 5 sp]
(Note: if you have over 20 sp available, the nuke ability will take priority.)
LEVEL 6: Laser Master
Complete 10 missions with an average score of 8001 – 9600
NUKE:
Take down the entire arena! Use this ability to deactivate every level 6 and above in the game, no matter where they are. Also, successfully launched nukes score a major amount of points for you and your team.
To launch, press in the feature button while vest is active and have over 20 sp. [costs 20 sp]
(Note: There is a 5-7 second delay between launching a nuke and detonating a nuke. If your vest gets deactivated during that delay, the nuke will be aborted and your special points will still have been spent.
