The Mobile Weapons Platform (MWP) skill is focused on the weapons mounted to your suit. Each B.E.A.S.T. suit is equipped with three weapon slots: small, medium, and large. Depending on your situation, you can outfit each slot with one of two weapons:

Small slot (on the wrist) can take either a wristblade or a shield. A wristblade focuses on stabbing attacks in melee range, while a shield provides protection for yourself and your allies.

Medium slot (on the shoulder) can take either a netlauncher or a minigun. The netlauncher is focussed on entangling and hindering your opponent, while the minigun provides room suppression and covering fire.

Large slot (on the forearm) can take either a missile launcher or a railgun. Missile launchers provide wide-spread damage to those in the room, while the railgun provides powerful single-target damage to foes near or far. Use the MWP command to check and change your loadout.
