Z této tabulky můžete vyčíst účinnost jednotlivých zbraní. Pro lepší strovnání je uvedena
i rychlost chůze, takže můžete vidět, že raketa letí zhruba třikrát rychleji než hráč běží.
Velmi zajímavé je porovnání hodnot shotgun a super shotgun - jejich hodnoty jsou rozděleny
do tří částí, neboť je velmi důležité, jak se přesně trefíte a z jaké vzdálenosti střílíte
(broky mají ve větší vzdálenosti větší rozptyl).

Některé součásti tohoto textu jsou převzaty z mého vlastího návodu na Doom. Velkou část tipů a triků jsem převzal z různých sites jako Stomped nebo Gamespot za což jim děkuji. Nepovažoval jsem za nutné na nich požadovat povolení, protože se opravdu jedná o všeobecně známé věci. Nejvíce však děkuji Andymu Gieslerovi za jeho stránku s tipy odkud jsem s jeho povolením převzal srovnávací tabulku.

8. Thunderbolt

Tato zbraň, ačkoliv to id Software v manuálu uváděl opačně, JE v shareware verzi. Sice jí nenajdete v normálních úrovních, ale můžete si jí vyvolat cheatem. V každém případě se jedná o jakousi mutací mezi Plasma Fire a BFG z Doomu. Vzhledově by se určitě přiřadila k plasmě, ale její účinek je naopak "děsivý" :-). Používejte opatrně, neuvěřitelně to žere. Vzhledem k menšímu výskytu nábojů se moc nepoužívá a podle mne je to dobře, protože mezi ostatní zbraně jaksi nezapadá. Za jedinou sekundu může ubrat až 300% energie, což sice může být na první pohled dost, ale sekunda je dlouhá doba a málokdy se podaří (V Internetové hře ještě hůře) mít někoho na mušce celou vteřinu.

raketomet

7. Rocket Launcher,
Pro většinu deathmatch profesionálů jasně nejlepší zbraň. Oproti granátometu má okamžité účinky a s trochou cviku dosáhnete obrovské přesnosti. Stejně jako v případě granátu je účinek jedné střely až 120% energie (to při čistém zásahu z optimální vzdálenosti, který se moc často nepodaří).

Super nailgun, super-kulomet

Opět výtečná zbraň se zhruba stejnými výhodami, ale s dvojnásobnou účinností a spotřebou než nailgun. Při použití s Quad-damege se jedná o jednu z nejlepších zbraní a předčí pak dokonce i raketomet.
6. Grenade Launcher, granátomet
Když se ví jak na to, můžete s granátometem slavit nevídané úspěchy. Tím chci říci, že je, narozdíl od ostatních zbraní, potřeba se s ním naučit zacházet. Další jeho výhoda je v tom, že se jako jediný může použít na soupeře za rohem apod. Částečnou nevýhodou může být destrukční doba, ale i z toho se dá udělat výhoda.

Zbraně

1. Axe, sekera
O možném použití sekery v Deathmatchi se nemá cenu dlouze rozepisovat. Jediné použití se skrývá ve spojení sekery s Quad-damage.
2. Single-barrered Shotgun, brokovnice
Zbraň vhodná k použití na dlouhé vzdálenosti a na okamžiky, kdy již nezbývá mnoho munice.
3. Double-barreled Shotgun, medvědice
Medvědice je naopak vhodná na menší vzdálenosti a její účinnost už je celkem slušná.
4. Nailgun, kulomet
"Hřebíkomet", ač se to na první pohled nezdá, je výborná zbraň, která najde použití v mnoha situacích. Cíl totiž dokáže zpomalit, oslepit a znesnadnit jeho přímý útok. Oproti superkulometu nežere tolik munice, takže vydrží s plnými zásobníky velmi slušnou dobu. Nevýhodou je dosti malá účinnost, srovnatelná s jednoduchou brokovnicí.

21. Dostat se z vody je občas docela problém. Vedou-li daným místem schody, není to žádný problém, ale jinak se doporučuje spolustisk "swim-up" a "forward". Pokud použijete místo "swim-up" tlačítku "jump", výsledek bude stejn, ale hráč vydá hlasitý zvuk.
22. Zbraně dostávají pod vodou poněkud jiné vlastnosti, odvíjející se především z již vyjádřených změn chování hráče. Vzhledem k značně pomalejšímu pohybu hráče se doporučuje double-shotgun a především Super-Nailgun, která pod vodou převyšuje i raketomet. U něj je totiž v normálním prostředí běžné střílet spíše než do hráče do podlahy, zdi či stropu. To ale pod vodou odpadá - kontakt s pevnými stěnami zde není tak obvyklý.
