They are fired with the main shot button and must recharge, but. Some of these offer passive attributes to your ship, while others add to the ship's firepower.

Unlike the regular weapons, they can't be purchased between missions, only being dropped randomly by specific enemies at predetermined points in the game. You get into contact with him early on and he issues you most of your orders for the better part of the game.This will be an encyclopaedia of information related to playing Tyrian 2000. The Special Weapons are weapons which cannot be obtained normally during gameplay. * BigGood: Transon Lohk, head of the ], Microsol's biggest competitor. The focus of Episodes 2 to 4 is to stop them whenever they amass enough resources to actually take over the sector. * BigBad: Microsol, which starts out by killing Trent's Hazudra friend for knowing about their plans to dominate the Tyrian sector, then offs Trent's family, before attempting to follow through with said plans a few times. * BeamSpam: The Laser and Zica Laser weapons definitely fit this, but the Needle Laser is probably the best example (5-6 lasers in one shot on the highest Power level). * BattleshipRaid: There is only one enemy in DREAD-NOT: a large warship that you need to destroy piece by piece as it moves around the screen attempting to focus fire on you. The issue with them is that they are rarely found in the shop, you have no control over them if you're trying to focus fire on one target, and the more commonly available Heavy Guided Bombs can do what they can, but with quality over quantity. ** Once fully upgraded, the Guided Micro Bombs spam the screen with a lot of miniature homing bombs that, via DeathOfAThousandCuts, do high saturation damage, making them a fantastic auxiliary weapon against single targets.

** The Gencore Solar Shield, added in ''Tyrian 2000'', does not draw power from your generator to recharge, but by the time it is available, there is another shield available that gives you the same protection for just over half the price, and the drain on the generator isn't really an issue except with constant-fire weapons like the Lightning Cannon and Zica Flamethrower. Leaving the Lightning Cannon at Level 9 mitigates its lack of spread but nerfs its damage. This is not helped by the fact that the Mega Pulse is cheaper and usually available for purchase ''before'' the Lightning Cannon. ** The full-power Lightning Cannon emits a dazzling stream of opaque lightning and is relatively powerful, but the power it drains is colossal (even the most powerful generator in the game, the Gravitron Pulse-Wave, cannot recharge fast enough if it is used alongside other energy-draining weapons such as the Zica Flamethrower), higher than the Level 2 or 5 Mega Pulse, and it is often less effective than the Level 11 Mega Pulse due to its lack of spread. The Atomic, your front gun in Super Tyrian mode, also falls into this category as well, more so given that the ]. They look and sound very nice, and most of them can deliver splash damage, but they often do a lot less damage than cheaper and easier-to-find weapons such as the Pulse Cannon that you start out with.
