Weapon

There are 7 main weapons and 3 secondary **weapons** used in Shell Shockers. You can choose between the seven primary guns either on the main menu or before spawning into the map. To change your weapon after spawning into the map, press the ESC or Tab key to despawn. Each weapon comes with a unique purpose and performance:

* EggK-47
* Scrambler
* RPEGG
* Free Ranger
* Whipper
* Crackshot
* Tri-Hard
* Pistol (a secondary, always equipped)
* Whisk (a melee weapon, always equipped)
* Grenade (always equipped unless used )

## Weapon Skins

**Weapon Skins** are the skins that are put onto a **weapon** in the game. They are a great way to customize the loadout of your egg in game. They can be purchased from the Shop for prices ranging from 1,500 - 150,000 Golden Eggs. Each weapon has eight core skins that will always be available for purchase in the shop, with their own unique themes, features and designs. Other skins can be found during annual and monthly events like Halloween, Christmas or Easter. This can also happen under special circumstances like the EGG ORG, Star Wars and New Years events and others non listed events.

Weapon skins do not alter the performance of the weapon, but it can change the dimensions of the weapon in terms of height or length—it is impossible to "upgrade" a weapon's performance. In each price range, there is a specific theme in all weapon skins of the same price (For example, all skins that cost 2000 Golden Eggs have a brown and gold rustic themed look.) These weapon skins can be used to show your wealth or status in the game.

There are also monthly premium skins that vary from month to month, which can only be bought with real online money. The premium skins can also be obtained with a VIP Club membership, which awards 2 premium skins to the player per month, and 3 temporary VIP skins to the player. Some premium skins say a certain phrase when shot, like "Catz", "Untz", or "Badoosh" and some others have unique sound effects such as the Valkyrie Skins. Many premium grenades also make special sound effects. Same with many melees like Harrison melee which goes "meow" and "purr" when you use it. Premium skins do not usually have codes made for them meaning they are only available to players who get/have VIP.

Weapons skins can also be won from giveaways, like from Blue Wizard Digital Discord server, Blue Wizard Digital Content Creators, Blue Wizard Digital code supported servers, BWD competetions, or leagues (or wizard support's monthly stream). It is one of the only ways that you can obtain super rare skins like the 2019 New Years Skins (crackshot and whipper), Buck Rogers, Albino Snake Skins, Flame Skins, rare hats and stamps such as Fez Hat and Stressed Stamp. To learn more ways to obtain codes head to BWD Discord Server and ask our friendly helpers.

Blue Wizard Digital Twitch Drops events also contain 1-4 different weapon skins for various guns, usually themed around a BWD content creator (BWD Partner Content Creators), such as the Thee\_Owl Scrambler, MenoXD Crackshot, Graysocean Crackshot and more.

You can find all of the Weapon Skins on each weapons respective page. (EggK-47, Scrambler, Free Ranger, RPEGG, Whipper, Crackshot, Tri-Hard, Pistol (Cluck 9mm), Grenade, Melee)

## History

Before Version 0.25.5 (November 2019), and subsequent updates, the selectable classes were differentiated from their weapons. For instance, the EggK-47 was referred to as "Soldier" in the menu, and "EggK-47" was just the soldier's gun. With vesion 0.25.5, the old classes and weapon names were amalgamated into singular names for each weapon class. EggK-47 and RPEGG kept their old gun names (dropping "Soldier" and "Eggsploder") while the rest kept their class names. Also, new default skins were added for the guns present at the time, and the older skins have been considered retired and might be brought back sometime.

The old system was as follows:

* The "Soldier" class used "EggK-47".
* The "Scrambler" class used the "Dozen Gauge".
* The "Eggspolder" class used the "RPEGG".
* The "Free Ranger" class used the "CSG-1".
* The "Whipper" class used the "SMEGG" .
* The "Crackshot" class used the "M2DZ".
* The Pistol was called the "Cluck 9mm".
* Grenades existed but could not be customized.

In Version 0.39.2, the Tri-Hard gun was added and grenade skins became available.

In addition to different names, the guns before 0.25.5 were blander-looking and much less colorful. They also had different sounds back then.
