Aliens: Fireteam Elite Complete List of Guns and Gear

While you start with a good selection of weapons in Aliens: Fireteam Elite, you will unlock more as you play, as well as start gaining attachments to augment them. There is no in-game resource that lists all of them in one convenient place if you do not own them, so this guide is intended to detail each of these. Additionally, there are consumable equipment you can bring along each mission to make your life easier.

This guide will not cover Classes, Perks, Armors, Colorways, Decals, Hats, or Challenge Cards.

The Basics

Weapons are unlocked in the following ways:

• By default
• By purchasing them from Staff Sergeant Park for Credits
• From mission drops on various difficulties

Guns have a base Combat Rating of 40, which increases by 5 for each Perk Tier that is unlocked (total of +20).

Attachments are unlocked in the following ways:

• By purchasing them from Staff Sergeant Park for Credits
• From mission drops on various difficulties
• From the Hidden Cache found in random locations in each level
• From Challenge Card bonuses

All Attachments give 20 Combat Rating apiece to the weapon they are equipped to (total of +60).

Consumables are earned in the following ways:

• Buying them from Staff Sergeant Park
• Finding them in brown caches at holdout points
• Finding them in the Hidden Cache placed randomly in each level

Some stats are “more important” than others when it comes to damage, as they directly affect how much damage you are able to deal per second. These are:

• Fire Rate – More bullets per second = more damage per second
• Reload Speed – Less time spent reloading = more time shooting bullets = more time dealing damage
• Weak Point Damage – More headshot damage = more…damage, I sure hope this was obvious

Some stats have an impact on your ability to deal damage, but not directly. These are:

• Max Ammo – More ability to use primary damage weapon = more damage
• Stability – Less recoil = more landed shots
• Accuracy – Less bloom/spread = more landed shots
• Magazine Capacity – This might be contentious, but I often find Magazine Capacity comes at the expense of other, more important DPS stats

And there are some stats that are good in some situations, but don’t necessarily directly influence how much damage you’re outputting. These are:

• Stumble Chance – Just makes enemies slower
• Handling Bonus – Improves Aim Down Sights time, equip time, and reduces the accuracy penalty for moving

Below are people who contributed information I did not have:

• Faraday – Type 78 Burst Pistol, M41A3 Burst Rifle, 4X Illuminated Scope

Rifles are one of the more common weapons used among the five classes, and range from fast-firing automatic rifles to slow-firing sniper rifles.

Auto Rifles will fire continuously if you hold down the fire button. They feature larger magazines, high fire rates, and lower damage compared to other rifle types, and typically allow for small to medium attachments.

Shotguns, but small. I’m not sure if Riot Gun is an official term for such a weapon, but that strikes me as kinda messed up – I would not use one of these to disperse a riot, but rather kill a bunch of things.

Heavy weapons are big guns that do high amounts of damage consistently or in bursts.

Machine guns do a little damage very quickly at good range and for extended periods of time.

Description
Another classic from Aliens, the Smartgun is known for three things: firing very fast, having a large magazine capacity, and essentially aiming for you.

Compared to CQW flamethrowers, these are bigger, faster, and stronger, too. However, it is not part of the DK crew due to burning them all alive thanks to Friendly Fire damage.

Description

Description
A decent increase to fire rate and stability, and you deal more damage to enemies at full health, which I believe is intended to either assist in stripping armor from Elites or just beef up the slow but high damage weapons. Also, it has learned to not call you Gamer Words.

Used on big guns. Sometimes medium guns. Basically, DMRs and Snipers.
