Globbler

Lead Flinger

Revolver; in-game text says it fires slugs as fast as you can pull the trigger and reloads faster after a kill.

Shocklance

Confirmed gun; community-mentioned pairing with Micro Detonators; after 1.0 it leans more toward small groups.

Carver

Industrial cutting tool; seen as a collected gear item.

Diffraction Driver

1.0 new weapon; see below.

A laser weapon firing at a large fungal enemy.

Diffraction Driver: the 1.0 addition

The Diffraction Driver is a 1.0 new weapon: an ion scatter gun that fires a short-range cone. Its secondary fire charges a wheel that narrows and lengthens the range, turning a close spray into a longer, tighter shot. It unlocks at level 10 using resources.

Grenades

Four grenades are confirmed: Snowball, Voltaic, Caustic and Incendiary. Snowball is the freezing grenade, unlocked through X11-B. For the other three, this guide lists the names only, because their exact effects and numbers are not detailed in the verified sources used here.

Snowball also ties this list to the 1.0 update: X11-B is a 1.0 new satellite region, and Snowball is unlocked through it. A player who has not reached X11-B yet has not reached Snowball yet either.

A gun from this list is only half a build. The other half is its upgrade grid: patterns, rarity unlocks and the 1.0 size-scaling rule decide whether the gun you picked actually performs the way you expect.

How to pick from this list

Start from the gun you already have, not from a ranking. If you have a Lead Flinger, the grid guide has a community-mentioned trio for it. If you have a Shocklance, the community-mentioned pairing is Micro Detonators, with the 1.0 note that it now leans toward small groups. If you are at level 10 or above, the Diffraction Driver is the new option with a genuinely different firing shape: short cone by default, narrowed and lengthened when charged.
