Special Weapons

Special Weapons are the most diverse weapon type by far and the only one possessed by 3 classes in the main EDF games. This type is included in all games up through 2017 but was unfortunately left out of Insect Armageddon before making its return in EDF 2025 (and its remake 4.1: The Shadow of New Despair). It features a number of useful weapons including the various Acid Guns and the turrets such as the ZEXR-GUN. Below is a list of these weapons. Since every weapon is unlocked by drop packages (except the bonus weapons), the unlock level in the table below represents the earliest level that the weapon can be obtained. The Easy/Normal means that it can be picked up at any point after this level in either easy or normal difficulty.
