	* '''[[Armor]]''': The blob, in addition to expanding, can attack. Blobs do a variety of damage, but are blocked by armor and bio protection, so [[riot armor]] or [[bio-suit]]s, are helpful.

Blobs do a variety of damage, but are blocked by armor and bio protection, so [[riot armor]] or [[bio-suit]]s, are helpful. Don't let yourself get surrounded!

	* '''[[Welding tool]]s:''' Cheap, readily available from [[Vending machines#YouTool\|YouTool machines]] (hack them for two more Upgraded Welding Tools) or the [[autolathe]]. Grab one and start burning away. Make a path towards a resource node and take it out. One guy with a welder isn't going to be able to breach the core, so don't try. It's a good idea to grab some [[General items#Fuel Tank\|Fuel Tank]]s to keep nearby so you can refuel quickly, but make sure your welder is OFF before refueling, and be sure the blob doesn't get close enough to absorb them. If science division is any good, they'll be passing out plasma cutters before long. They do the same damage as lit welders without any need to refuel, and have the added bonus of not setting plasma on fire in the case that the blob or some chucklefuck pops open a plasma canister. Replace your welder with a cutter ASAP if science starts making them.		* '''[[Welding tool]]s:''' Cheap, readily available from [[Vending machines#YouTool\|YouTool machines]] (hack them for two more Upgraded Welding Tools) or the [[autolathe]].

Carring the whole armory into maint just lets the blob kill you and bury them. Available in the [[Armory]], in [[Head of Personnel\|certain]] [[Head of Security\|heads]] [[Captain\|of staff]]'s quarters and through R&D or Cargo.

	'''Order guns.''' Energy guns have their place, and are nice, but the station already has plenty. Combat shotguns may be better if people are good with them and print as many shells as you can in advance. Why? If you print lethal shells between Industrial Welders, combat shotguns don't have the downtime of energy guns. A constant feed of lethal shells makes for the ability to print, shoot while printing, clear shell, take new shell, feed old shell in, repeat. It makes the metal cost pretty much fuckall and does big damage. Besides that, you should already have enough laser guns on the station that unless some dipfuck loses them to the blob, you have barely enough chargers to charge them all at once. ~~'''Make sure R&D gets a shotgun crate, see Science for details.'''~~		'''Order guns.'''

You can move around freely and invisibly until you spawn. Try to find a secluded spot with no cameras. Also remember, nearby walls will automatically be destroyed the first few minutes from blob tiles created by your core. Talking normally will send a message to your blob hivemind channel.
