Heroic Weapons
Heroic-tier weapons are the highest tier in Space Marine 2. Each Heroic melee weapon carries an exclusive Heroic perk that fundamentally alters how the weapon plays. Heroic ranged weapons typically add an alt-fire mode (Combi-Melta, Grenade Launcher) or a unique attachment (laser sight).

Secondary Heroic Weapons
Heroic secondary (sidearm) weapons typically add a laser sight attachment that boosts gunstrike damage. The Plasma Pistol is the exception — its Heroic perk replaces normal shots with charged-only fire. See the Secondary Weapon Stats page for the full sidearm lineup.
