Output Levels



Output Levels: Every machine has a built in generator that supplies the power needed for it to function. This generator also supplies the energy requirements for its weapons and systems. The amount of energy produced depends on the quality of the generator(s). For the sake of simplicity and rapid reference, weapons and systems are labeled with an “Output Level”, this is, the level of output needed for it to function properly. For example, a plasma rifle requires at least 2000kw to be fired, and thus it can be used only by mobile suits with a LV 5 engine or superior. Laser weapons require less energy, and are often used by machines with LV 4 engines. In some cases, there is no need for an specific level as in the case of solid round weapons, grenades and solid melee weapons.

Level 1: 100kw to 499kw

Level 2: 500kw to 999kw

Level 3: 1.000kw to 1.499kw

Level 4: 1.500kw to 1.999kw

Level 5: 2.000kw to 2.999kw

Level 6: 3.000kw to 3.999kw

Level 7: 4.000kw to 5.999kw

Level 8: 6.000kw to 9.999kw

Level 9: 10.000kw to 19.999kw

Level 10: 20.000kw to 50.000kw
