Hungry for more information about Haze? It seems only right that I go into some detail about the guns you’ll be using to do this in Haze. As you already know, you’ll be able to play as a Mantel trooper AND a Promise hand rebel, which means you’ll have access to two weapon sets. Of course, your best weapon in the game is your use or abuse of Nectar, but in terms of how you can make holes in people, here’s what you can expect!
MANTEL WEAPONRY:
The ‘Diplomat’- D6 pistol
The ‘Diplomat’ is the side-arm of choice for the smart Mantel trooper. It’s got the kind of stopping power that makes the bad guys feel like they were hit by a steam train full of anvils. It’s especially good at close range “when negotiations fail” – hence it’s nickname.
The ‘BlackSaw’ - B72 Assault Rifle
The ‘BlackSaw’ is the standard issue rifle, but there ain’t nothing standard about it. This baby fires rounds made from
depleted uranium, meaning that not only do you kill your opponent, you give them radiation poisoning too. Yee-ha!

The ‘BlackSaw’ (Suppressed) - B-72(S) Assault Rifle
This sleek silenced version of the standard issue BlackSaw marginally reduces bullet velocity and rate of fire in
exchange for near-silent firing. The perfect tool in covert operations.
The ‘Donkey Puncher’ - D118 Combat Shotgun
As painful as it sounds, this high-end shotgun is more than enough to kick any ass presented to you. At close range,
it’s a one shot kill affair.
The ‘Handy Candy’- 387L Rocket Launcher
The Handy Candy is a state of the art rocket launcher, capable of blowing the living "****" out of any armored target.
Of course, it’s even more fun to try on an unarmored target. I hope you like Sloppy Joes!
The ‘Pinpointer’ - B72 Sniper
This classic sniper rifle couples the ultimate in armor-piercing rounds with a projectile velocity powerful enough to rip
right through the sternum of any Promise Hand soldier. Tasty.
‘Spring Cleaner’ SK3 Fragmentation Grenades
Despite their sweety-pie nickname, these grenades are as tough as they come. Based on the classic dead man’s
switch design, these time-operated babies are perfect for crowd clearance.

The JM90 ‘Heavy Gun’
Weighing in at 180lbs, the JM90 is only practical as a fixed gun in a defensive position. But, once in place, its
firepower is enough to send any sane rebel running for the hills.
PROMISE HAND WEAPONRY:
When your not out fighting for Mantel, your fighting against 'em, these are the weapons you use:
The ‘Razor Tongue’
This classic hunting knife can be used to slash or throw. The rebels can even smear the blade in Nectar by selecting
it before making a Nectar Grenade. With Nectar on the blade, the Razor Tongue will cause any Mantel trooper to
Overdose.
The ‘Lobo’ (Wolf)
The Lobo is the standard rifle for most militia groups across the world, and with good cause. With a quick-load
double-ended magazine and a large clip size, it’s the ideal weapon for both attack and suppression.
The ‘Oso’ (Bear)
This shotgun may be a little rough round the edges, but it still packs a punch. With a slightly larger clips size than its
mantel counterpart, the Oso’s extra cartridges can make all the difference in a close-quarters firefight.
The ‘Mano del Dios’ (Hand of God)
A massive bullet capacity and a surprisingly light weight makes this minigun the stuff of nightmares for anyone up
against it. Not to be messed with.
The ‘Dragón de la Gente’ (The People’s Dragon)
A practical, portable flamethrower with a comparatively long reach, a few sweeps with this fiery weapon can be
enough to clear a room in a matter of seconds.
The ‘Aguila’ (Eagle)
This sniper rifle carries fewer rounds than the Mantel equivalent, but what it lacks in number it makes up for in power.
A deadly piece of hardware.
‘MalaFruta’ (BadFruit)
Old school, but that doesn’t mean they don’t hurt. Filled with a combination of steel chippings and high explosives,
these grenades are just as dangerous as Mantel’s own.
‘Nectar Grenades’
Made on-the-fly by strapping a Nectar Administrator onto a standard grenade, this explosive spreads a thick cloud of
yellow Nectar gas across the area. Any Mantel soldier stuck in the cloud will Overdose.
Thats everything you'll be handling when your out their kickin' ass on the battlefield!
NECTAR ABILITIES & ADVANTAGES:
Nectar Perception: While on Nectar, your enemies will become far more visible to you, even if they are hiding in
the shadows or foliage.
Melee Blast: Performed the same way as the normal melee attack, but with 10 times the power, thanks to Nectar.
Nectar Resilience: Bullets won’t bounce off you, but you’ll certainly take less damage from them.
Nectar Focus: When you are sniping or using the zoom function on your helmet, Nectar will give you a new level
of focus, helping you aim and making it easier to kill in one deadly accurate shot.
Nectar Foresight: If you are in danger while on a Nectar high, a visible “pulse” will ripple outward from the point of
threat. This could be a grenade at your feet, or someone about to melee you from behind.
Mantel uses Nectar to boost their soldiers and make sure they get the best in weaponary defence and mental skill!
