Primary Weapons are the simplest weapons that come in fairly familiar forms such as assault rifle, DMR, sub machine gun, and side-arm. They are the workhorse weapons of the game.

Special weapons provide more power at the cost of limited ammo supply. These weapons come in forms like sniper rifles, shotguns, and grenade launchers.

Heavy weapons are for moments when extreme amounts of damage is needed in short periods of time. They provide a high damage output at the cost of even less ammo available. They come in forms such as: rocket launchers, swords, and light machine guns.
