Selecting a primary weapon is the most important choice when customizing your Pilot’s loadout. The characteristics of your primary weapon determine how and at what range you engage enemy Pilots and minions—this in turn dictates your style of play. By completing challenges tied to each primary weapon, you can unlock a variety of attachments and mods. Attachments consist of different weapon sights, each offering unique sight pictures and varied magnifications—see the provided table for more details. While attachments change the way targets are acquired when aiming down sights, they have no impact on the weapon’s overall performance. Mods, on the other hand, alter the way a weapon functions, sometimes increasing or decreasing a weapon’s stats. Each primary weapon has one attachment slot and one mod slot. Experiment with different configurations to find a combination that works for you.
