New ranged weapon attachments have been introduced in the latest patch for ICARUS. The Week 39 Update adds a total of 25 new ranged weapon attachments.
Players can find 10 basic attachments in the Tier 3 Alteration Bench. These attachments can improve all bows, crossbows, and firearms in ICARUS. They are:
- Basic Scope (All ranged weapons)
- Trajectory Module (Bows and Crossbows)
- Economic Attachment (Bows and Crossbows)
- Silencer (All Guns)
- Flexible Frame (All Guns)
- Strengthened Strings (Bows only)
- Lightweight Frame (Crossbows only)
- Handcannon (Pistol only)
- Sniper Scope (Rifles only)
- Spread Reduction Module (Shotgun only)
Another 15 attachments can be found on the Tier 4 Alteration Bench. Here’s a rundown:
- Advanced Scope (All ranged weapons)
- Advanced Trajectory Module (Bows and Crossbows)
- Advanced Economic Attachment (Bows and Crossbows)
- Advanced Silencer (All Guns)
- Advanced Flexible Frame (All Guns)
- Advanced Strengthened Strings (Bows only)
- Advanced Lightweight Frame (Crossbows only)
- Advanced Handcannon (Pistol only)
- Advanced Sniper Scope (Rifles only)
- Advanced Spread Reduction Module (Shotgun only)
- Rapid Fire (Bows only)
- Prototype Notch (Crossbows only)
- Extended Chamber (Pistol only)
- Hunting Scope (Rifles only)
- Spread Increased Module (Shotgun only)
The ones available in the Tier 4 Alteration Bench provide buffs and specialized features. The Advanced Silencer Attachment, for example, increases stealth damage by 40% and reduces perceived threat by 30% as well. Players who want to preserve their weapons may use the Advanced Economic Attachment, which reduces projectile break chance by 10% and the wear rate of items by 40%.
It is worth noting that developer Rocketwerkz will add mounts to the game in the future. So, for players who are asking for a way to move quickly in ICARUS, perhaps they will get what they want soon.
