Secondary Weapon Tier List

Ranking Weapons
A Tier ・P-19 Redeemer
・P-4 Senator
B Tier ・P-2 Peacemaker

Out of all the secondary Weapons available, the P-2 Peacemaker is meant to be replaced with the P-19 Redeemer as soon as you can. The P-4 Senator, though powerful, the lack of magazine capacity is a big drawback.

Evaluation Reasoning
Damage Damage is the primary judging criteria. The better damage output a weapon can produce, the better it is.
Recoil Whether you play on controller or mouse & keyboard, recoil patterns will always be a thing to consider in shooter games. Having low recoil means better handling and better chances of landing a shot successively.
Effectiveness We also ought to consider the effectiveness of a weapon against an armored enemy. Guns that can prove effective against a wider variety of enemy types will be considered more.
