On Reddit, a player from The First Descendant introduced a useful tool that he created for the new loot shooter. He is celebrated by the community for it.
What kind of tool is this? The Reddit user “Crazyatman” has created a so-called Weapon-Builder. This is a tool that allows you to plan your weapons from The First Descendant – without having to be in the game yourself. You can access the tool online via a website, and no registration is required.
With the tool, you can experimentally build weapon builds without actually owning the weapons or the modules used. You simply select the respective weapon, such as the submachine gun Python, and then add various modules.
The tool then calculates the weapon’s stats, including damage (Firearm ATK), rate of fire (Fire Rate), or chance for critical hits (Firearm Critical Hit Rate). This way, you see how the modules affect the weapon and can compare different builds.

“Someone must protect this person!”
Why is the tool commendable? Build planners are extremely useful as they allow you to create various weapon builds without owning the weapons or modules.
If you want to test the damage of a Python with various modules, you usually have to farm the Python and the modules first. Only then can you create the builds and test the damage in the lab.
The tool saves you the grinding time. You can freely combine the builds and have all the values presented clearly. This way, you neither waste time nor resources on weapon builds that may not be worth it.
What exactly does the community say? The community is extremely grateful to the user in the comments on Reddit and asks if he is a saint. The players greatly appreciate the tool and are thankful for the service.
- “Great job, man!!”
- “Are you a saint?”
- “Great job! Do you have a GoFundMe?”
- “Someone must protect this person!”
- “You should be incredibly proud of your work.”
- “Thank you so much! Fantastic tool!”
Does the tool also have disadvantages? Yes, it is not yet 100% complete. The creator states on Reddit that he is still working on calculating the damage per second.
Additionally, the tool is only available in English. You will need to recognize the weapons and modules by their English names, images, or values.
