Babylon’s Fall – Recommended spectral weapons

gamepur.com:

While playing through Babylon’s Fall, settling on a proper spectral weapon loadout may be more difficult than your standard weapons. The way the game is designed, the light and heavy weapon slots act as the basis for your playstyle, with the spectral weapons meant to supplement this or cover a potential weakness.

With six major weapon types and two spectral weapon slots, what areas should you focus on? Everyone is bound to settle into a preferred playstyle, but our guide will detail spectral loadouts that should cover the widest bases.

The shield and hammer combo is great for beginners. The shield offers protection without hampering your mobility or moveset. You’re able to still run around and attack with an active spectral shield. This is ideal for players that don’t have a handle on dodging, since each dodge drains spirit. It is also useful if you’re a beginner playing solo and find yourself surrounded by enemies. The protection offers extra leeway to be aggressive.

The hammer helps supplement this with its damage and impact. Throughout the game, you’ll come across shielded enemies that repel all frontal attacks. Getting behind them in the heat of battle is sometimes difficult, but the hammer solves this. A charged spectral hammer stuns shielded foes, leaving them vulnerable.

If you’re feeling especially aggressive, you can’t go wrong with a dual hammer setup. As mentioned, the hammer’s impact stat works incredibly well for shielded enemies. However, it also works on most enemy types except bosses and infamous enemies, which you won’t get access to until late in the game.

The charged spectral hammer stuns enemies, allowing you to wail away without having to slow down your assault.
