Which weapons should I prioritize?

If you play on Steam or watch pro streamers on Twitch, prioritize weapons that match your character’s sustain and the meta for the stage. Level-based gains (like Sergeant Puran’s Storm Bolter) and time-based rewards (survive X minutes) give steady progression; plan sessions around those requirements.

Are there weapons shared between universes?

Yes — Nuln Oil and D6 Dice are available from the very beginning across both universes. For the rest, cross-reference character-specific goals with your current favorite loadout on community tools like the Steam guides or Games Workshop resources.

I’ll keep this page tight so you can bookmark it, queue the right runs, and stop wasting time on blind grinds—do you want a condensed checklist for each character next?
