Notable Main Weapons

The Mechanic is compatible with any gun and does not come with a Class Champion weapon, so it is up to you to pick which gun suits your needs best. Players are advised to pick up at least one gun for each element to enable use of Energy Maneuver for mimicking Strike Time in any fight.
