Ripper

Cost: 8000

Available: Chapter 3

Rating: 5

This weapon fires a blade in front of you that spins at a length, almost like extended on a pole. It is horrible when up close, but decent if you can see the enemy coming. It lasts a short period.

Alternate fire: Fires a blade forward, not wise with a small clip.

Ammo: Ripper Blades (4) - 1800

Contact Beam

Cost: 9000

Available: Chapter 4

Rating: 3

Hold and then release the trigger to shoot a powerful beam at the enemy. It's extremely powerful, but the delay needed to fire detracts, not to mention it holds very little ammo early and upgrades take more effort than the other guns. Still, this gun un-changed is a powerful weapon. And no need to aim for limbs with this baby.

Alternate fire: Pound the ground, great for crawlers or when surrounded.

Ammo: Contact Energy (1) - 2000; TONS of ammo for this thing, so you will probably sell it more than buy.
