“Isn't that supposed to be attached to a PRIME Drone, ma'am?”

―Katherine Green IV^[src]

Outbreak PRIME is a Legendary Specialized Weapon Variant introduced in Call of Duty: Retribution. The weapon is an identical handheld version of the weapons internally attached to PRIME Drones, AI defense drones controlled by PRIME. They were manufactured and built by Eclipse Advanced Weapons for use by Eclipse Army and Special Operations teams.

This weapon is available for purchase for 1000 Credits in the Armoury. This weapon can only be used in Extinction and Special Operations, and is restricted in Multiplayer.

This weapon can be Masterworked by completing its Masterwork Challenge which requires completion of objectives:

• Obtain 400 kills with this weapon
• Kill 300 enemies while they have PRIME Nanites

Features

Weapon Perks

• Corruption

Corruption allows this weapon to create swarms of PRIME Nanites on consecutive rapid hits and Precision Kills. Every consecutive rapid hit generates one PRIME Nanite while Precision Kills are able to generate 3 PRIME Nanites. These Nanites attach themselves to nearby enemies, dealing a total of 2 damage to them over time. The maximum amount of PRIME Nanites that can be generated is capped at 8.

Once Masterworked, consecutive rapid hits now generate 2 PRIME Nanites while headshot kills generate 4 PRIME Nanites.

• Parasitism

Parasitism allows this weapon to deal increased damage against enemies depending on the amount of PRIME Nanites attached to them. Each PRIME Nanite grants this weapon +4% bonus damage to corrupted enemies. At 8 stacks of Parasitism, this bonus damage is at 32%.

Once Masterworked, this Perk now gains +5% bonus damage against corrupted enemies with PRIME Nanites; maximum bonus damage being 40%.
