Weapons

Each mech is armed with two weapons: one primary and one secondary. Weapons do not consume ammo, but they do have varied rates of fire and share the same capacity for heat. Once a mech overheats, both of its weapons are disabled for a short period of time.

Most mechs have three primary weapons to choose from, a stock weapon, an alternate weapon (unlocked at mech rank 3), and a prestige weapon (unlocked at mech rank 5). These extra weapons can be bought for 4130 HC or 512 MC each.

All mechs have a single secondary weapon that is irreplaceable. The secondary weapon is usually more powerful than the primaries, slower to fire, and generates more heat. All secondary weapons have an alternate function that can be activated by pressing the middle mouse button.
