The Skunk Gun is the first schematic you will encounter in the game.

  • In Chapter 3, Aftermath, find the Skunk Gun schematic during a falling elevator sequence.
  • After the elevator crashes in the prison basement, locate a locked door to the right.
  • Obtain a fuse by clearing enemies on the left side of the floor.
  • Insert the fuse into the locked door to access a vent leading to the schematic room.
  • Drop into the Botanical Recycling Room, where the Skunk Gun schematic is on a workbench to the left

Here are some things you should know about the Skunk Gun:

  • The Skunk Gun is a powerful weapon that is essentially a shotgun in the form of a pistol.
  • It packs the power of a cannon and can blow through most enemies with just a single shot.
  • Although it is not as efficient when it comes to dealing with hordes of enemies due to the limited ammo it can carry.
  • Keep in mind that the Skunk Gun is an optional weapon, and you do not need it to progress through the game.

Tactical Pistol Schematic

  • Tactical Pistol schematic is found in Chapter 6, Below.
  • It is strategically placed in the level where blind enemies are introduced.
  • Blind enemies have heightened hearing, making the Tactical Pistol efficient against them.
  • Navigate through tunnels, reach a room with spikes, and proceed to the stairs.
  • Head right, move through a gap, and find the schematic on a workbench in a room with various items

Here are some things about the Tactical Pistol that you should keep in mind:

  • The Tactical Pistol makes dealing with blind enemies much easier.
  • It is an automatic gun, so dealing damage in bursts is very efficient, albeit the damage of a single shot isn’t that high.
  • Moreover, you need to be good at controlling the recoil of this gun if you want to aim your shots consistently.
  • But if you learn how to use this gun properly, it can be a deadly weapon, especially after all the upgrades that it can get. 

Assault Rifle Schematic

The Assualt Rifle is the third and final schematic that you can discover during your playthrough of the game. It is located in Chapter 7, Colony. It is easy to find this schematic since it is located right at the start of the chapter, near the place of your first encounter. You will notice a ladder that leads to Midtown. Once you are in Midtown, find the general store and exit it through the other side.

Turn left as soon as you leave the general store, and you will find yourself in a bathroom. The schematic is placed right over the sink, waiting for you to collect it. Be careful, though; as soon as you pick up the schematic, you will be attacked by an enemy. Make quick work of him so that you can develop your newly found weapon.

Here are some tips on the Assualt Rifle:

  • The assault rifle is a very high-powered weapon that can dispatch enemies in the blink of an eye.
  • Be sure to keep an eye on your ammo, though, as this rifle consumes two rounds every time you shoot it.
  • Admittedly, it is not very good when it comes to saving ammo, but it excels at using homing rounds with its automatic mode.
