  • A high-powered laser that periodically releases an explosive burst.

The Plasma Burst Laser isn’t just a weapon that makes bank heists easier thanks to its drilling potential. It’s a weapon of mass destruction that most players might skip due to its seemingly low damage, but the trick lies within its consistency.

The Plasma Burst Laser is great for players who can keep sustained fire on their enemies, as the laser will constantly eat at their health and periodically release explosive bursts for splash damage, which can harm multiple enemies, even behind cover.

5 Collateral Damage AR

A Fast-Firing, Low Accuracy Assault Rifle

  • Boasts a blistering fire rate, at the cost of accuracy and range.

The Collateral Damage AR debuts in Chapter 6 Season 2, and it’s definitely worth using. The Collateral Damage AR benefits from close-range and medium-range engagements thanks to its usage of Medium Bullets that allow it to blend both the perks of an AR and an SMG into one powerful gun.

While the recoil and accuracy may limit its reliability in long-range engagements, it still provides a consistently powerful and fun time for those in the heat of action, as the rate of fire is something enemies should fear as this weapon fills them with bullets in such a short time frame.

4 The Kneecapper

A Melee Weapon to Bash People and Knock Them Off Cliffs

  • A brutal melee weapon, essential for every underground organization.

Durability

Damage

  • 35 (Base)
  • 75 (Charged)

The Kneecapper is an exceptional melee-focused weapon in Chapter 6 Season 2 that relies heavily on aggressive playstyles. Not only will players have more stamina to sprint while holding the Kneecapper, but they will also be able to commit to a flurry of aggressive combos with their swings and attacks that can hit multiple enemies at once.

The real kicker for the Kneecapper comes from the charged smash, which allows players to overcharge the weapon’s swing to send enemies flying. For engagements near cliffs, the Kneecapper becomes essential for how it can so easily swing enemies off the edge so that gravity pulls them down to their deaths.

3 Holo Twister Assault Rifle

The Reliable Assault Rifle with Good Damage for Long-Range Fights

  • Scoped automatic Assault Rifle. Moderate rate of fire, very easy to control, and effective in a variety of combat scenarios.

The Holo Twister Assault Rifle should be the AR that most players use so that they can handle medium and long-range engagements with the enemy. The recoil is fair, as is the fire rate, to provide a high-damage AR that is made even greater than before thanks to its scope.

The scope provides an accurate opportunity to eliminate other players, as the hitscan potential of the weapon is made even greater with a zoom option. Even without the scope in play, the Holo Twister Assault Rifle has good damage to make up for its relatively weaker rate of fire.

2 Veiled Precision SMG

Consistent Speeds and Recoil Makes a Scoped SMG the Best

  • Fully automatic scoped and suppressed SMG. Fires at a high rate with high accuracy, dealing moderate damage at short range while quickly consuming the short mag.

The return of hitscan that continues through Chapter 6 Season 2 means that SMGs are even better than ever. No longer is bullet drop a factor of the decline of SMGs, and the Veiled Precision SMG comes in hot as a returning weapon that provides fast speeds in its rate of fire, reliable damage, and recoil, along with a nifty little scope.

Unscoped engagements are solid for close-quarter fights, and the scope on the SMG makes medium and long-range engagements even easier than perhaps an Assault Rifle ever could. It’s fast in terms of damage and bullet fire rate, and the built-in silencer means other opponents won’t know what’s hit them until it’s already too late.

1 Sub-Zero’s Kombat Kit

A Brutal Set of Melee Moves for Fatalities

  • A powerful Kombat weapon that executes an icy martial arts kombo. You can also use Ice Slide to bolt toward your enemies.

Durability

100

Damage

  • 40 (First)
  • 35 (Combo)

Sub-Zero’s Kombat Kit allows players to test their might in Chapter 6 Season 2, as this melee weapon kit will provide players with quick and spammable melee punches and kicks that will truly make enemies feel like they’re the victim of a fatality. Sub-Zero’s Kombat Kit is highly aggressive, providing great damage and quick attacks that even shotguns and SMGs can’t compete.

Not only is the damage and speed of attacks great but getting to targets is made even faster thanks to the slide attack that will see players slide across the ground with quick speeds to spear attack their foe. It also helps that with this Kombat Kit, players can run on water.
