Character Weapons

Your character can equip personal weapons for ground combat:

Type	Description
Pistol	Reliable sidearm. Good all-round performance.
Rifle	Versatile primary weapon. Balanced range and damage.
Shotgun	Devastating at close range. High burst damage.
Sniper	Long-range precision. High damage per shot, slow fire rate.
Shield	Defensive weapon. Provides protection and survivability.

All weapons are unlockable — you start with a basic Rifle and unlock more through gameplay progression.

Weapons and attacks in Warped use five damage types, each effective in different situations:

Damage Type	Description
Light	Energy-based damage. Bright, fast-hitting attacks.
Gravity	Gravity-warping damage. Distorts space around targets.
Armour Piercing	Penetrates through enemy defences. Ignores a portion of armour.
Kinetic	Raw physical impact. Straightforward and reliable.
Void	Entropy-based damage from the Void itself. Mysterious and devastating.

New damage types become available as Research Facilities are completed across the star system.
