The Titan part of Titanfall 2 is only half the battle. When you're not stomping around in a giant killing machine, you're probably running around lightly as a pilot, trying to rack up a high enough score to call down a Titan.
Here are the weapons and mods available to you as a pilot in Titanfall 2.
- Tactical mods
- Grenades
- Assault rifles
- Submachine guns
- LMGs
- Sniper rifles
- Shotguns
- Grenadiers
- Sidearms
- Anti-Titan
Tactical mods
There are seven tactical mods in total that drastically change your pilot's appearance and playstyle. You can only have one of these mods enabled at once.
Cloak
You become nearly invisible for a short period of time. Other players can see a slight outline of your body, and firing any weapons will remove the cloak.
Pulse Blade
Toss a throwing knife that sticks into any surface. It emits a sonar pulse that shows enemies within a medium range.
Grapple
Shoot a grappling hook that can attach to pretty much every surface. Use it to quickly swing or propel yourself around the map.
Stim
Get a short, significant boost to your speed while your health is rapidly replenished.
A-Wall
Toss down a disc that puts up a pilot-sized shield that blocks incoming shots and raises the damage of outgoing shots.
Phase Shift
Enter an alternate dimension for a short time where you're impervious to damage. You also cannot interact with Titans or other game items while in this alternate dimension.
Holo Pilot
An exact replica of you is deployed from your position, and it will copy your actions while alive.
Grenades
You have a selection of six different grenades in Titanfall 2; each one delivers a different effect that will help you with your playstyle.
Frag Grenade
Your standard grenade that explodes and sprays steel fragments. Hold down the fire button to cook the grenade.
Arc Grenade
When this grenade goes off, it scrambles the HUD and view of Titans and stuns enemy pilots.
Firestar
Toss a throwing star that happens to be on fire. Good aim is required.
Gravity Star
When thrown, this grenade creates a miniature black hole that sucks in enemies and any projectiles before it explodes.
Electric Smoke Grenade
This dual-purpose tool blocks sight and also fries any Titans or pilots who dare enter the smoke.
Satchel
You get two packs of explosives to toss down; make sure you clear the area before remotely detonating them, as the explosive radius is quite wide.
