Weapon Upgrade Guide

Scattered at irregular intervals in The Callisto Protocol are seven different types of weapons, and it is essential that you acquire them as quickly as possible as they will help you to stay alive. The weapons that are not given to you by allies (Stun Baton and BI-55 Pistol) will need to be found as schematics which you will then have to purchase with Callisto Credits. These schematics will appear more than once if you miss them the first time. Take a look at our Weapon Upgrade Guide to find out how much everything costs.

Stun Baton

Your only melee option and you will be using it a lot. The Stun Baton replaces the temporary pickaxe weapon you begin with when you head to the armory to look for weapons. It basically works the same as the pickaxe but lets you upgrade abilities at a Reforge.
