A weapon doesn’t have to be incredibly rare to be great in The First Descendant. Tamer is one of the best rare weapons in the game you can get, thanks to its high DPS potential.
Tamer is a rare machine gun in The First Descendant that uses General Rounds and is one of the strongest rare DPS options, making it perfect for tough Void Intercept Battles like Pyromaniac or Dead Bride.
To make the most of this gun, here’s our best build for the Tamer in The First Descendant.
Best Modules for Tamer in The First Descendant

For the Tamer, you want Modules that increase its DPS as much as possible through stats like Critical Hit Rate, Critical Hit Damage, Fire Rate, and Firearm ATK. Your mobility with this weapon is low, and you can’t do much about it since it’s a machine gun.
Here are some of the recommended Modules for the Tamer:
Module | Effect |
---|---|
Rifling Reinforcement | Increases Firearm ATK |
Fire Rate UP | Increases Fire Rate |
Expand Weapon Charge | Increases Rounds per Magazine |
Better Insight | Increases Firearm Critical Hit Rate |
Better Concentration | Increases Firearm Critical Hit Damage |
Insight Focus | Increases Firearm Critical Hit Rate and Critical Hit Damage |
Weak Point Detection | Increases Weak Point Damage |
Weak Point Sight | Increases Weak Point Damage |
When building Critical Damage on the weapon, try to get as much Critical Hit Rate as possible to deal consistent damage. You can also add Modules that increase attribute damage, like Electric Enhancement or Chill Priority, but those depend on what you’re fighting.

The stats you need on the weapon are similar to what you need on Modules. Because Tamer is a rare weapon, using weapon adjustment is significantly cheaper and faster than on Ultimate weapons, so try to get as many rare and Ultimate stat rolls as possible to maximize damage.
Here are the stats to look for on the Tamer:
- Weak Point Damage
- Firearm ATK
- Firearm Critical Hit Rate
- Firearm Critical Hit Damage
- Bonus Firearm ATK (vs. Colossus)
