As an ARC Trooper of the 212th Attack Battalion you are equipped with a standardized set of equipment given to all ARCs with an additional specialization based on the battalion's focus. Your standard loadout is comprised of the Westar M5 Blaster Rifle and the DC-17s Blaster Pistol. The specialized equipment given to 212th ARCs are the Jump Pack and Thermal Detonator.
The Westar M5 is a High DPS, any range rifle, that excels in all situations and environments. Use your scope to pick off enemies at a range and tear swaths of enemies apart up close with it's firerate.
The DC-17s is a high fire rate pistol that comes as a handy side-arm when in high intensity close-range firefights. It will reliably finish up anything the Westar M5 ran out of ammo for.
The Jump Pack is a short range mobility booster. It can be used to get to rooftops for a vertical advantage or to rapidly move across open areas on the ground. It runs out quick, so use it wisely.
The Thermal Detonator is great for clearing up groups of enemies at the start of a fight. It's destructive power will tear apart droids in a split second. Just be aware of it's long throw time.
