Shopping District
The Shopping District is an area in Pioneer 2 which houses the various shops, at which players can spend
Meseta for Weapons, Frames and Barriers, and Tools. The Tekker is also located here.
In Episode 1 and 4, the Check Room is located outside of the Shopping District. In Episode 2, the Check Room is located inside.
Arms shop
The Arms Shop allows the player to purchase common weapons. Stronger tiers of common weapons are made available both as a character's level increases, and are also affected by difficulty.
Weapons offered by the Arms Shop are randomized each time the player enters Pioneer 2. A player can purchase an unlimited amount of copies of any weapon available.
Weapons on offer can have up to second-tier specials (e.g. Heat or Fire, but never Flame or Burning), and can sometimes have one or two attributes, up to a maximum of 50% in each.
Notably, common sword-, partisan-, slicer-, handgun-, mechgun-, and shot-type weapons with the Charge special and 50% Hit may be available for purchase, and are some of the strongest options available to players.
Second-tier specials, including Charge, begin appearing in Ultimate at level 100+. The highest tier of common weapons (Gladius, Calibur, Ripper, Gungnir, Diska, Raygun, Laser, Vulcan, Arms, Club, Striker, and Scepter) are all available in Ultimate by level 151+.
The distribution of weapon types seen in the Arms Shop is partially affected by Section ID - somewhat like weapon item drops - as seen on the weapon drop tables page. For example,
Purplenum is the most likely Section ID to see Mechguns,
Whitill is the most likely to see Slicers, and
Viridia is the most likely to see Shots. Contrary to weapon item drops, the Arms Shop also follows a few rules regulating the amount of
melee,
ranged, and
technique weapons available. There will always be several weapons available for each of these three categories.
