Quick Links
Fate Triggeris a Battle Royale where you can jump from an airship carrying a total of 100 people, but you won’t have anything to attack other people except your hands. After you land, you’ll have to loot around and find some weapons, armor, and other equipment for battle, but the first choice is the most important.
As you explore, you may find a bunch of different weapons lying on the ground with varying damage and recoil among many other stats. While none of the weapons in the game are completely useless, some of them might suit you more than others.
Fate Trigger is currently in Beta, and everything mentioned in this article is subject to change.
All Weapons And How to Use Them
The weapons in Fate Trigger are divided into six categories:Assault Rifles, Sniper Rifles, Submachine Guns (SMGs), Shotguns, Light Machine Guns (LMGs), and Marksman Rifles (DMRs). Each category is fairly self-explanatory for the guns they usually hold. However, you can also tell the category that a specific gun belongs to by reading the abbreviation at the end of its name.
Here are all the guns you can find while looting and what each one excels at:
CL-4 AR
Balanced in everything
CL-4 not only has high damage to the enemies but also thehighest stability and nearly the highest range, which makes it a great overall rifle to use. It also has an extra attachment slot.
Gladiator AR
High Damage
This rifle deals the highest damage out of all Assault Rifles in the gamebut not a lot of stability. However, if you can master its recoil, it can be deadly in close and medium range.
CL Rafale AR
Burst Fire
If burst fire in a gun is your thing, this is the perfect one for you as it shoots three rounds in quick bursts. This is a difficult gun to use, but itcan be deadly if you trust your crosshair placement.
ZK-M AR
Long Range
This gun has decent damage and stability, but its main impact comes from the high range, making ituseful against faraway enemies.
CL-24 SR
High One-Shot Damage
This is the only Sniper you can find in normal areas, but it hasextremely high stability, damage, and range. It can easily two-shot an enemy and doesn’t require you to peek for a long time.
Adjudicator SR
One Shot One kill
If you hit an enemy with a headshot, thisrifle can instantly knock them down. However, you may’t have attachments on it so you’ll have to get used to the bullet drop.
Planetcrasher GL
Close Range Monster
While this comes under the sniper category, this weapon is much better at close range as it essentially launches grenades at the enemy. The projectile speed is slow and thefaraway enemies can easily moveaway from the hit radius.
Jackson SMG
High Stability
This gun hardly requires you to manage recoil and you can run around with it while shooting,making it harder for the enemies to hit youwhile you lower their HP.
Peregrine SMG
Extra Attachment
You can have up to seven attachments on this weapon, making itdeadly in close rangewhile allowing high mobility.
Pulsar SMG
Great Respawn Weapon
you may get this weapon when you respawn, and it can be quitegood at defeating enemies in the early gameto get your loot back.
Perforator SMG
This gun has some respectable damage while allowing you to move fast anddoesn’t need much recoil management, making it a good close-range weapon.
Beast Buster SG
Great For Camping
The two shotguns aren’t much different from each other outside of ammo, but they’re both great if you’regetting rolled up by a squad when you’re alone. These can prove as great weapons to camp in small corners with.
Tempest LMG
No Reload
This gun can be acquired from airdrops, and itdoesn’t require any reloading. However, you have to make sure it doesn’t fully overheat or enters a cooldown period.
Rearguard LMG
Better Mobility
While this LMG has fewer bullets, it can still be agood close-range choiceas it allows for high mobility.
CL Monolith LMG
Great For Breaking Cover
If you want to break the enemy’s spawned cover or cars, this isjust the weapon for you, regardless of the range.
Cantius DMR
Great Long-Distance Battle
This is the only DMR currently in the game, but it has its place in the meta as it’s agreat weapon for long-range battlesif you don’t want to rely on single-hit damage.
Best Weapon Loadouts
Now that you have an idea of how each weapon works in Fate Trigger, it’s also important to learn some of the best loadouts for different play styles. Of course, youshould always try all the weapons and find your own preferred loadout, but these are some basic ones you’re able to start with:
Short-Range Duelist
Perforator SMG and CL-4 AR
If you want to avoid long-range fights as much as possible, this can be a great loadout sinceboth the SMG and AR deal great damagein short-range.
However, if you’re forced to take long-range battles, you can still do it with CL-4.
Beast Buster SG and Gladiator AR
If you want to be the one to force the enemies to come to you, this is a great combination for that. However, it’simportant to keep yourself in the zone for this.
Enemies usually won’t come to you if you’re not in the zone.
Mid-Range Duelist
Rearguard LMG and Cantius DMR
Most of the battles in Fate Trigger are played at a medium range where your SMGs and Shotguns won’t be as good, butRearguard is a great picksince you can spam away at the enemies.
Long-Range Duelist
Gladiator AR and Adjudicator SR
If you’re someone who prefers to keep some distance between you and the enemies, this loadout is perfect asboth guns work great at long range. Of course, it will require you to learn bullet drop and Gladiator’s recoil.
ZK-M AR and CL-24 SR
On the other hand, if you don’t want to deal with bullet drop, you can get an upgrade to prevent it on your Sniper on this build and get corrosive on your AR todeal some DoT damage to your enemies.
The combination of these two can be highly deadly at long range.
Beast Buster SG and Cantius DMR
This might not seem like a long-range build at first but itcan be quite good if you’re able to aim well. You can use the DMR to take all your battles and if the enemies try to push, you have the shotgun to mow them down.
Support Loadouts
CL Monolith LMG and Planetcrasher GL
This is arguably the best support gun combination as the LMG lets youbreak enemy cover and vehicles at any distancewhile the grenade launcher can pressure the enemies as your teammates push them.
