Thunder Cage is an SMG that deals insane amounts of damage. What sets this weapon apart from all the other guns in The First Descendant is its unique ability to do an area-of-effect burst of electrical damage to eliminate additional enemies after a kill.

Thunder Cage offers countless benefits, and it's perfect for fast-paced combat situations. It releases electric shock waves every time you kill an enemy, and you can gain access to this weapon very early in the game. Its biggest drawback is its inability to trigger its effects without defeating opponents.

  • Type: Ultimate Submachine Gun
  • Firearm ATK: 24
  • Fire Rate: 666
  • Reload Speed: 1.4 seconds

As with any other weapon in The First Descendant, you can make Thunder Cage even more powerful than it already is. In this case, you can farm this weapon multiple times and use Workbench's Enhance Unique Ability option to infuse one Thunder Cage into another. This is a great way to level up the gun to keep it relevant in all stages of the game.
