Shotgun Cannon and Sniper Statistics 1.21.1 - Herbertofury/Advent-of-Ascension GitHub Wiki
Shotguns, cannons and snipers: choose a loadout with the right numbers
Direct gun defaults · Ammunition and pouch precautions · Weapon upgrades
Exact scope: Minecraft 1.21.1, AoA 3.7.16.1. This guide covers 94 released registrations: 17 shotguns, 50 cannons and 27 snipers. Their wrapper defaults, callback instructions and registration factories were read separately and joined by registered ID. Together with the direct-gun guide, 172 modern weapons have expandable stat panels beside their model previews. These are released component defaults, not measured combat outcomes.
Prepare a loadout
- Choose a weapon in the tables below and open its model card.
- Expand its released-defaults panel. Check the ammunition ID and whether it came from the family default or an explicit override.
- Follow the ammo reference into the item browser or recipe search. Check acquisition and costs before leaving base.
- For shotguns, compare pellet count and spread as well as the damage input. For snipers, compare scope symbols and zoom modifiers. Cannons need a separate understanding of their projectile and explosion behavior.
- Inspect the upgrade recipe and component-preservation warning before upgrading a valuable stack.
The panels are created only when expanded. They reuse the selected release’s inventory data and make no additional network request for statistics.
Family defaults and exceptions
| Family | Count | Default ammunition | Released default firing mode |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shotguns | 17 | Spreadshot (aoa3:spreadshot) |
Semi-auto |
| Cannons | 50 | Cannonball (aoa3:cannonball) |
Semi-auto |
| Snipers | 27 | Metal Slug (aoa3:metal_slug) |
Semi-auto |
All 94 extracted callbacks retain semi-auto mode. Several replace ammunition, including Discharge Capsule, Grenade, Balloon, vanilla Carrot and vanilla Cobblestone. The tables and panels preserve those overrides. Do not copy Limonite Bullet or full-auto defaults from the direct-gun family into these weapons.
Shotgun damage: the important distinction
The released base AoAShotgun.createFiringContext applies multiplyDamage(1 / pelletCount) and sets a lifespan input of 4. The configured damage input therefore must not be labelled damage per pellet. It also is not a guaranteed total when every pellet lands: special subclasses, collision, target defenses, components and effects still need checking. Pellet spread and knockback values are modifiers, not measured angles or distances.
Sniper scope: a symbol, not a magnification promise
The released sniper builder starts with AoASniper.BASIC_SCOPE and zoom-strength modifier 1. Explicit scope and zoom overrides are preserved. A symbolic scope reference is not a verified texture preview, and the zoom modifier is not a measured optical magnification.
Cannon damage: investigate the projectile too
A damage input alone cannot describe blast radius, explosion damage, special effects or block interaction. Use these numbers to identify the configured weapon, then test its actual projectile behavior in the matching release. This documentation does not certify world safety or runtime balance.

Evidence and remaining checks
Released wrapper, callback, factory and base firing-context evidence includes class hashes and instruction bytes. The exact archive is AoA3-1.21.1-3.7.16.1.jar. Source models belong to Tslat and contributors; the overview is an original static documentation render, not an in-game screenshot or animation.
- Values retain raw floating-point inputs in evidence; tables display six significant digits.
- Scope is these three wrapper families, not all AoA weapons. Bows, staves and other types remain separate work.
- No DPS ranking, hit probability, explosion radius or real-time firing-rate claim is inferred from these values.
- Confirm subclass overrides, modified stacks, enchantments, multiplayer synchronization and actual ammo consumption in a matching game before using the table as a balance specification.
- Historical versions have their own constructor-input guide; no modern wrapper defaults are applied to them.
