Best Weapons in Pragmata

Best Overall Weapon: Jackhammer

The best weapon in Pragmata has to be the Jackhammer. It's a heavy melee weapon that can also shoot a powerful laser beam at foes, and it still deals a ton of damage even if the enemy hasn't been hacked. The only issue is that you won't have it in your arsenal until you roll credits and start the post-game.

Best Early-Game Weapon: Shockwave Gun

If you're trying to figure out the best gun for the early sectors of Pragmata, I think the Shockwave Gun is ideal. It's basically an overpowered shotgun that works best when you're up close and personal to the bots, which happens very often. It's not great for flying drones, but if you need to take care of a common bot with one shot, it'll get the job done.

Best for Crowd Control: Stasis Net / Riot Blaster

When you're surrounded by enemies and need a weapon to give you some space and a moment to breathe (or hack), using the Stasis Net in combination with the Riot Blaster can prove useful. The Stasis Net can hold enemies in place for a couple of seconds and stops them from attacking, while the Riot Blaster is basically a grenade launcher that can knock enemies back on their backs, giving you some extra time to gather yourself and clear the room.
