+
−
===Fusion Rifles===
+
−
[[Fusion Rifles]] fire powerful bursts of energetic shots after short charge-ups.
+
−
===Shotguns===
+
−
[[Shotguns]] fire bursts of shots that are effective at close range.
+
−
===Sidearms===
+
−
[[Sidearms]] are fast-firing, semi-automatic pistols introduced in [[House of Wolves]] expansion.
+
−
===Sniper Rifles===
+

*[[Impact]] - This value determines how much damage each round inflicts on a target. Note that Impact will generally share an inverse relationship with Rate of Fire.
−
{{main|Weapon Upgrades}}
+
*[[Range]] - This value determines how far a bullet can travel before its damage begins to decay. It also affects aim assist and bullet magnetism at longer ranges.
−
Weapon Upgrades are addons that enhance or customize the stats and attributes of the weapon. [[Uncommon]] or rarer weapons gain [[Experience Points]] when players use the weapons. As the weapons gain EXP, upgrades will be unlocked. Players can "learn" these upgrades by spending certain currencies such as [[Glimmer]].  
+
*[[Rate of Fire]] - This value determines how quickly a weapon can fire. Note that Rate of Fire will generally share an inverse relationship with Impact.
−
*Rarer weapons have more upgrades.
+
*[[Stability]] - This value determines the severity of a weapon's recoil.
 +
*[[Reload]] - This value determines how quickly a weapon can be reloaded.
 +
*[[Magazine]] - This value determines the number of rounds that a weapon can hold in a single magazine.

==How to Obtain Weapons==
+
==Ammunition==
−
Weapons can be obtained through fighting enemies in the Story mode, the Crucible. They can be given as rewards for completing daily bounties, Daily and Weekly Heroic Strikes and the Weekly Nightfall. They are sometimes found in loot chests, engrams, and earned as rewards for fighting in the Crucible.
+
  
−
==Images==
+
All weapons feature a hidden statistic known as '''Inventory'''. This value determines the maximum amount of ammunition that can be carried in a player's reserves. The Inventory statistic will always be a value between ten (10) and one hundred (100), though the effect of this value varies between weapon families; a Sniper Rifle with an Inventory value of 100 would not be able to hold the same amount of ammunition as a Fusion Rifle with an Inventory value of 100, for example. Chest armor, Boots, and select Exotic equipment provide the player with perks that directly increase the Inventory stat for the specified weapon family while it is equipped. These perks are as follows:

Weapon Statistics

Weapons in Destiny are defined by their statistics: numerical values that determine how effective a weapon will be in combat. These statistics are as follows:

  • Impact - This value determines how much damage each round inflicts on a target. Note that Impact will generally share an inverse relationship with Rate of Fire.
  • Range - This value determines how far a bullet can travel before its damage begins to decay. It also affects aim assist and bullet magnetism at longer ranges.
  • Rate of Fire - This value determines how quickly a weapon can fire. Note that Rate of Fire will generally share an inverse relationship with Impact.
  • Stability - This value determines the severity of a weapon's recoil.
  • Reload - This value determines how quickly a weapon can be reloaded.
  • Magazine - This value determines the number of rounds that a weapon can hold in a single magazine.

Ammunition

All weapons feature a hidden statistic known as Inventory. This value determines the maximum amount of ammunition that can be carried in a player's reserves. The Inventory statistic will always be a value between ten (10) and one hundred (100), though the effect of this value varies between weapon families; a Sniper Rifle with an Inventory value of 100 would not be able to hold the same amount of ammunition as a Fusion Rifle with an Inventory value of 100, for example. Chest armor, Boots, and select Exotic equipment provide the player with perks that directly increase the Inventory stat for the specified weapon family while it is equipped. These perks are as follows:

Auto Rifle Ammo Special Weapon Ammo Field Scout
Pulse Rifle Ammo Heavy Weapon Ammo
