Exogun

The Exogun is a light weapon which can quickly damage an opponent with minimal notice. With its splash damage, even at a far range you do not need to have good aim to hit an opponent. Additionally, it cannot be deflected by the Katana or absorbed by the Riot Shield, meaning that you cannot block its blasts. With the fastest reload speed, the Exogun has been widely regarded as one of the best secondaries and is used by beginners and experts alike.

Prime rarity.

Handgun

The Handgun is a weapon with well-rounded stats, and compared to the Assault Rifle, it has decent DPS. However, it is Semi-Automatic, meaning that for rapid fire you must pull the trigger multiple times. The Handgun is the initial side-arm for players, being part of the first loadout a player uses (which is frequently referred to as the "default loadout").
