Inspect the weapon shop

Which weapon should I unlock first?

Claim the tutorial’s Pow Pow and try its free first upgrade. If you want a different Tier 1 option, Shorty costs 5,000 Gems and has a pellet-based upgrade path. Use the shop’s TRY button to compare handling before spending.

Compare damage and price

Laser Cannon has the highest displayed DMG/S among the 12 inspected weapons here, at 700, and costs 250,000 Gems. Minigun shows 605 DMG/S. This does not establish the best weapon for every range or situation.

For upgrade steps, compare recorded weapon upgrade costs.

Player questions

What is the best weapon or first gun to unlock?

Start with the free tutorial Pow Pow offer, then compare the table and try available alternatives. Different tiers, damage patterns and unlock costs make a single best-gun claim less useful than a comparison.

Is the Epic Deagle confirmed?

The recorded Tier 1 shop includes Deagle at 45,000 Gems. Its damage panel was not opened. Destructoid describes it as Epic; the video card has a purple border.

Do gems buy every weapon?

Many lobby cards show gem prices; some equipped and locked cards do not show an unlock price. During runs, the HUD uses cash instead. See the two-currency guide.
