MK1-Braton

The MK1-Braton is one of two starting Primary weapons available to new Tenno that can be acquired during the Vor's Prize tutorial prologue. It is a long-since-rendered obsolete Corpus manufactured rifle, and is standard issue to most Tenno recruits. The damage and fire-rate are sub-optimal in comparison to other assault rifles, but the strongest point lies in the accuracy and stability, allowing easy handling of the weapon. It is generally recommended to replace the MK1-Braton whenever possible.

Trivia

 * The writing on the receiver of the weapon reads "LUKSOR FORGE" in the Corpus Language.
 * The MK1-Braton is one of two Corpus-forged knock-offs of the Orokin Braton Prime rifle. It was replaced by the Braton, but was mass-produced in massive quantities, making it a widely-accessible weapon.

 * Originally, the MK1-Braton was unable to equip skins. This was eventually fixed in
