Notoriety Weapons Guide

Weapon Slots Explained

Notoriety gives you three combat slots: primary (rifles, SMGs, shotguns, snipers), secondary (pistols), and melee. Gadgets and equipment occupy separate slots. Each weapon has stats for damage, accuracy, concealment, and fire rate.

Concealment determines stealth viability — lower detection risk means guards spot you slower. Suppressors add concealment to loud weapons. See the weapons tier list for rankings.

Stealth vs Loud Weapons

Stealth favorites: Honey Badger, P90, G17, Tomahawk, Knife. Loud favorites: AKM, Saiga-12, Intervention, Deagle. The stealth build and loud build pages recommend loadouts.

Attachments (suppressors, scopes, grips) modify stats. Invest in a suppressor early for stealth progression. Use cash codes to afford mods faster.
