Standard-Issue Assault Cannon

The Standard-Issue Assault Cannon is a Starter Weapons blaster cannon that can be found in Star Wars: The Old Republic. The Standard-Issue Assault Cannon can only be used at a specific level and up, but if you are higher than the weapon's required level, you can wear it cosmetically in the Outfitter to show its appearance on your character while using a higher-level weapon in your Gear tab for stats.

How to Get: Starter Weapons

This is not a direct screenshot of the Standard-Issue Assault Cannon. The file name is fitted-outlander-efficient-cannon-3125-thumbnail.png - as far as I can tell it is identical to another weapon, so I re-used the screenshots. There may be small variations that I could not tell apart when comparing thumbnails, previews or item icons.

Sound: Primordial

All Blaster Pistols with the Primordial sound type have the same sound, including the Standard-Issue Assault Cannon. This isn't the official name, and this Blaster Pistol sound type may be labelled something like weaponrangedblasternormal10 in the background of the game.

I do not have a video of the Standard-Issue Assault Cannon, but you can watch a video of the Primordial Blaster weapon to hear the Primordial sound type, which is the same as the Standard-Issue Assault Cannon.

How to Get Starter Weapons Weapons

Starter Weapons are what a brand new level 1 character starts off with depending on their Combat Style they chose when creating their character.

Identical Weapons

These weapons will have an identical or very similar look to the Standard-Issue Assault Cannon. There's no real name for the appearance, but I've labelled it assaultcannonhigh36a01v01 which may be a name I call all identical weapons, or a name in the game files.
