Weapons

Master every weapon in Rogue Company! Learn about weapon families, stats, and how to acquire the best gear to dominate the battlefield. Get the edge you need!

Alright, let's talk weapons in Rogue Company. Knowing what you're packing is half the battle, right? This guide breaks down everything you need to know about the guns, from how they're categorized to where you can snag 'em. We'll cover the basics so you can start making informed decisions on the fly.

First off, every character has a Main Weapon and a Sub-Weapon. When you're in the heat of a match, your primary attack button (usually the right trigger) fires your Main Weapon, and another button (often a face button) switches to your Sub-Weapon. Keep an eye out for Lilika, though – her bow is her main squeeze, controlled by the primary attack button, while her hatchet uses a different button.

Weapons are grouped into families. Think of them as cousins – they look pretty similar, maybe just a different color or a little extra flair. The last weapon in each family usually shares a name with the fourth, but gets a random special character added (like a +, s, v, x, z, Σ, or Ω). If one weapon in the family can inflict a status effect, they all can. Special weapons, like Jaster's Desert Seeker, are their own thing and don't follow these family rules.

When you're looking at weapon stats, you'll see a level requirement. You gotta be at least that level to equip it. You'll also see the base Attack Power (ATK) and the maximum potential for elemental stats. Keep these in mind when you're gearing up!

As for where you get your hands on these bad boys: some you'll buy from shops, others you'll find in treasure chests, craft in the Factory, or earn as rewards. If you see a price, remember that doesn't include any Hunter's License discounts you might have. Weapons crafted in the Factory won't even show up in shops until you've made them yourself.

The coolest way to get new weapons, especially higher-level ones, is through Synthesis – basically, combining two other weapons. There are tons of combinations that can lead to the same weapon, so the 'Source' listed in guides usually points out one of the most efficient ways to get it, considering cost and availability. It's a great way to experiment and build your arsenal!
