What are Ultimate Weapons in The First Descendant

Every character can equip three weapons in The First Descendant. This allows you to prepare a diverse combo for any encounter. Alongside weapons Descendants also have access to equipment such as reactors and smaller pieces to further enhance their combat power.

It is important to note that not all weapons will work with every The First Descendant Character. You still want to unlock all the ultimate weapons because you never know when the devs will adjust a weapon, and then it might become the best weapon in a certain character slot. It is best to take a look at all The First Descendant Builds to see which weapon fits best to a character. It is recommended to focus on one character and maximize the power of it before you move on to another one. It will also take time to level up weapons.

Weapons can be upgraded at the Workbench in Albion through Weapon Level Transmissions, Unique Ability Enhancements, Reactor Enhancements, and Weapon Adjustments. Each weapon has a specific rarity: Common (White), Standard (Blue), Rare (Purple), and Ultimate (Gold). A higher rarity often means that the weapon has more perks and is more powerful.

Python Story

As the Magisters continued to research Arche, they also attempted to use related technologies to increase the Battle Power of the Descendants. The miniaturized Arche Control System was used in Modules, External Components, and Ultimate Weapons.

Code name “Python” was a piece of equipment invented to be compatible with toxic Arche. When the gun is fired, a small amount of toxic material is sprayed. The minute a bullet penetrates a target’s skin, a neurotoxin is released into their body.

However, because the emission of too much poison when loading the round into the weapon’s chamber can have a harmful effect on the user, a series of control procedures made it possible to safely and effectively use the powers of Arche. Thus, only Descendants who possess Arche abilities can use this weapon effectively.

Thunder Cage Story

The “Thunder Cage” is hailed as the most successful attempt at electrifying a technology used by the Ancestors. It is a combination of the prototype of Bunny’s suit technology and a submachine gun.

This firearm, considered Albion’s strategic weapon for the next generation, converts kinetic energy into electromagnetic force, which is stored in a specialized battery. Once the energy reaches its critical state, the user can use a Sub Attack which releases the energy in one powerful burst. The power of this sub attack influenced the weapon’s official name. The Magisters said it looked like trapped thunder being released, leading to the weapon being called the “Thunder Cage”.

Keep in mind, that as the firearm’s internal devices function independently from Bunny’s Arche ability, there is no additional effect when used by Bunny.

Albion Cavalry Story

When Albion first began fighting back against the Vulgus, they were lacking in many areas. The only people who could even fight in battle were the surviving knights and soldiers. Humanity only began developing weapons in earnest once the Magisters joined Albion. The Albion forces decided to form a Special Cavalry using the surviving knights to carry out high-speed mobile strike operations.

For these operations, a heavy machine gun that could be used atop a horse was first developed. The first version was much larger and heavier than the current version. Of course, mobility was not an issue when riding atop a moving horse, but on foot, its size and weight proved to be a problem. There were many times soldiers had to fully disarm and retreat. The Magisters conducted extensive research into this issue and ultimately succeeded in achieving a smaller and lighter weapon that could be used easily by anyone.

Because it was originally developed for mobility, even after its transformation, it continued to shine when used by a Descendant on the move. Since then, its appearance has not changed and it is still referred to as the “Albion Cavalry Gun.”

Sigvore’s Proof Story

Sigvore’s Proof is the result of the sustained efforts of one Descendant who was obsessed with explosions.

This Descendant was inspired when he witnessed a Vulgus named Sigvore of the Legion of Darkness easily controlling an explosive weapon. Although he was the enemy, the Descendant could not help but marvel at the power of bombs. The Descendant proceeded to follow Sigvore and record everything he learned about his weapon. Later, he seized the weapon for himself and submitted it to Albion to use for development purposes.

The Weapon Development Department, impressed by the Descendant’s passion, reverse-engineered and duplicated the weapon according to his wishes and developed a brand new launcher. They added an extra Sticky Bomb inside the launcher for additional firepower. This weapon was originally set to be named “Esiemo’s Proof” after the Descendant who had made its creation possible, but Esiemo adamantly opposed this name, so it was changed to Sgivore’s proof.”
