While the game features a lot of ammunition, certain weapons are a must-have for players to get through combats quickly. One of those is the Va’ruun class of weapons, which once acquired can give players a much-needed advantage, and surprisingly not many gamers who start Starfield might not know about it.

Starfield was added to the Xbox GamePass library giving subscribers Day One access to the game, and those with an Ultimate subscription can also check out the game using Xbox Cloud Gaming. Xbox Cloud Gaming brings GamePass titles to portable devices including Android or Apple devices, as long as gamers remember the one caveat. A constant network connection is essential for a lag-free experience and to have the game.

Gamer and writer for Axios, Stephen Totilo, recently started playing the game and he did so on his iPhone connected to a Backbone controller, all while he was in the passenger seat on a highway drive, with a mobile network. Totilo shared his experience stating while he breezed through the initial few stages, the experience took a turn for the worse when the network lagged.

Totilo concluded his thoughts by saying Starfield is a breeze on any device that supports Xbox Cloud Gaming, as long as a stable network is used to avoid any lags or having the game frozen frequently.

The Sooner Gamers Get Hold of The Va’ruun Class of Weapons in Starfield, The Better

The Va’ruun class of weapons in Starfield is the best-kept secret in the game in a way, as they feel quite illegal to be used in combat. The particle beam weapons in the Va’ruun class are easily one of the best weapons players must have in their armor in the game. They’re just as deadly without any modifiers as they are with them as even the stock guns without upgrades deal quite a lot of damage.

These are the best guns in this class: The Va’ruun Starshard, The Va’ruun Inflictor, and their melee counterpart, the Va’ruun Painblade.

The Starshard is a pistol that’s capable of inflicting hard-hitting damage in Starfield. The damage is comparable to a revolver with a much bigger magazine and a higher fire rate. The Starshard is a standard particle beam pistol with the ammo type being Light Fuse. It unleashes potent and precise energy blasts that deal a destructive impact. The Starshard also has extensive customization options with seven modification slots using which the players can increase the gun’s power, adaptability, and precision.

The Va’ruun Inflictor

Another particle beam rifle that feeds on Heavy Fuse ammunition, and shoots precise energy blasts that have a devastating impact, also has a plethora of customization options. The rifle looks like a submachine gun and works like a semi-automatic. The Inflictor has six modification slots that allow players to upgrade it into an even more destructive weapon in Starfield.

The melee weapon in this class, the Painblade is also the best in Starfield as it can be used to one-shot lower-level enemies. The weapon also has a stealth upgrade that can be used to one-shot even higher-ranking enemies. The Painblade has the highest damage rating and deals two types of damage – energy and ballistic. Hence, if an enemy is resistant to one of these, they will still feel the other.

Starfield also has a lot of pistols as well that can be quite useful in the game. The game is out on Xbox GamePass which is the cheapest way to experience the game, compared to the $69.99 retail price of the standard edition.
