The most basic form of close combat possible. As a melee weapon, the 'berserk' power up will turn a successful hit into a one-hit kill. In multiplayer modes, in addition to inflicting damage, one can steal another player's weapon by landing a punch. | ||

''Power fluctuations and maintenance issues continue to create poor lighting at the UAC Facility and flashlights are now required for all security forces. Also works as a club in close combat.'' Both a useful piece of lighting equipment and a handy club, the flashlight has infinite battery life, making it useful for illuminating dark areas (critical to survival in Doom 3).

As a close range weapon, the flashlight differs from the fists insofar as it deals twice as much damage and possesses a greater range, but swings more slowly. Like all melee weapons in Doom 3, the flashlight can kill with one blow if the user has the 'berserk' power up. | ||

''A high rate of fire, good accuracy and excellent power makes this a perfect weapon for medium and long-range enemies and quick targeting.'' Possessing a rapid rate of fire, commendable accuracy, and excellent power, the machine gun is a popular weapon for medium and long-range combat situations. With only 1° of spread and a magazine size of 60, the machinegun is well suited to firing a line of headshots that can bring most enemies down in seconds. In ''[[Doom 3: Resurrection of Evil|RoE]]'' multiplayer, the machinegun is the player's starting weapon. | ''A high rate of fire, good accuracy and excellent power makes this a perfect weapon for medium and long-range enemies and quick targeting.''

In multiplayer, the chaingun’s spread is reduced to a mere 1 degree, thus making it a popular long-range weapon. | ||

A very powerful | A very powerful melee weapon, named the "Beaver Tooth," presumably in reference to its potential for cutting through wood. Should an attack connect, most enemies fall in a matter of seconds. As a mêlée weapon, the chainsaw can be used with the berserk power up to kill instantly on impact. The chainsaw is not included in the vanilla Doom 3 multiplayer maps. | ||
