Elemental and exotic weapons offer unique damage types and effects. The Flamethrower deals continuous fire damage in a cone. The Plasma Gun fires powerful energy projectiles. The Lightning Gun chains damage between enemies. Exotic weapons like the Cyberball bounce between targets, providing excellent crowd control. These weapons often require specific stat investments, such as elemental damage bonuses or engineering stats for turrets.
