Lately, one hot topic has been dominating discussions: "Which gun should I spend my saved Diamonds/Universal Credits on?" and "Is XX weapon good? Is it worth buying?"
Seeing everyone's enthusiastic discussions, I felt it was absolutely necessary to systematically go through the powerful "specialty" weapons in the game. I hope this helps you spend every precious Diamond and Credit where it counts most!
Whether you're a determined player planning to "become a god through grinding without spending a dime" or a strategist willing to "spend a little for double the experience," this guide is tailor-made for you.
So, without further ado, let's dive in!
In-Depth Analysis of Core Weapon Specialties: What Makes Them So Strong?
Currently, special weapons in the game primarily feature three core specialties: [Insta-Kill], [Penetration], and [Area Damage]. Understanding these will unlock the essence of weapon selection.
1. [Insta-Kill] Specialty: The Ultimate Bane of Elites and Bosses
-
Weapons with this Specialty: APX96-Sniper Rifle, P350-Pistol
-
Effect Interpretation: Simple and direct, the effect is exactly as it sounds—when hitting an enemy, there's a chance to directly ignore their HP and instantly defeat them.
-
Combat Scenario Analysis:
-
Advantages: This specialty is designed for dealing with "tough nuts to crack" that have high HP and are hard to handle. For high-level enemy types appearing in the later stages of "Lone Hero" mode, or Bosses encountered in "Combat Assault," [Insta-Kill] can save you a lot of damage output time and ammo once triggered. It's a "game-changer" in critical moments.
-
Disadvantages: Against hordes of low-HP small enemies, the advantage of this specialty isn't obvious; it feels a bit like "using a cannon to swat a fly."
-
One-sentence summary: Born for breaking through defenses, suitable for precise sharpshooters who enjoy the thrill of a "one-shot kill."
-
2. [Penetration] Specialty: The Line Clearer
-
Weapons with this Specialty: AWB98-Sniper Rifle, TX02-SMG
-
Effect Interpretation: When you defeat an enemy, any excess damage from the bullet continues to fly towards the next enemy in that position. For example, if an enemy only has 100 HP and your bullet deals 150 damage, the extra 50 damage won't be wasted but will directly hit the enemy behind them.
-
Combat Scenario Analysis:
-
Advantages: In "Lone Hero" mode, when a large number of enemies are lined up in a straight formation in a specific position, the effect of [Penetration] is "ruthless." It greatly improves your line-clearing efficiency, especially when your weapon damage is overflowing, maximizing your damage output.
-
Disadvantages: If enemies are spread out or there's only one enemy in a position, the penetration effect cannot be utilized.
-
One-sentence summary: The king of line-clearing efficiency, suitable for efficiency enthusiasts who love watching enemies "double-kill" with one shot.
-
3. [Area Damage] Specialty: The Tactical Core That Changes the Battle
-
Weapons with this Specialty: TF07-Shotgun, P190-Pistol
-
Effect Interpretation: This is currently the most tactically valuable specialty. When your bullet hits an enemy in one position, it simultaneously fires a shot with half damage to the adjacent left and right positions.
-
Combat Scenario Analysis:
-
Advantages: Imagine in high-difficulty levels with 3 or 5 positions, enemies pouring in from all directions, and you're frantically switching positions to defend. With an [Area Damage] weapon, you only need to attack the enemy in the middle to simultaneously suppress enemies in both adjacent positions! This greatly reduces operational pressure and reaction time, being the "ultimate answer" to preventing being surrounded.
-
Disadvantages: The splash damage is lower and may not instantly eliminate enemies on the flanks.
-
One-sentence summary: The core of tactical gameplay, a savior for players less skilled with controls, and a "pass" for high-difficulty levels.
-

Some weapons can be exchanged for "Universal Credits" in the shop. As long as you have enough time and patience, a set of divine gear is not a dream. However, we also understand that many players' time is precious. Diamonds exist to offer a choice: " make a small investment and you can save a lot of time to grow rapidly."
