Artwork of numerous gun parts

Guns in Dirge of Cerberus -Final Fantasy VII- can be customized using different frames, options, accessories, and barrels. Which accessory is used where changes the stats of the weapons, so this is a major part of the gameplay. Weapon upgrades and parts can be bought at shops throughout the game, which are shaped as jukeboxes, and at the end of every Chapter. The following is a list of all the various equipment that can be used in the game:

Contents

Stats

There are seven statistics that determine the effectiveness of weapons in Dirge of Cerberus. All of the stats are maxed out at 500 and can only go as low as 0, except Weight.

Stat Description
Weight This determines how fast Vincent can run while in shooting mode. The higher the Weight, the slower Vincent moves. Oddly, it does not affect his speed while the gun is at his side.
Speed Determines the rate of fire.
Power Determines the damage done by the gun.
Range Determines the distance that a shot from the gun can travel.
Short Accuracy at short range.
Medium Accuracy at intermediate range.
Long Accuracy at long range.


Gun Frames

Handguns

Handguns are the most balanced guns in the game, decent at any range.

Cerberus

Gun Weight Speed Power Range Short Medium Long Price
Cerberus 540 80 60 60 110 115 70 1000 gil
Cerberus II 540 80 105 60 110 115 70 2000 gil
Cerberus III 540 80 105 60 120 125 75 5000 gil


Power Cerberus

After the third upgrade, the Cerberus can travel one of three paths, the Power Cerberus, the Speed Cerberus, or the Medium Cerberus. The two major Guns, the Griffon and Hydra follow similar branching paths. As its name implies, this path focuses on power over the other two stats.

Gun Weight Speed Power Range Short Medium Long Price
P Cerberus 540 55 145 60 120 125 75 10000 gil
P Cerberus γ 540 55 145 60 140 145 80 17000 gil
Powered Cerberus 420 55 205 60 140 145 80 26000 gil


Speed Cerberus

The path focuses on speed over the other stats.

S Cerberus 420 95 105 60 120 125 75 10000 gil
S Cerberus γ 420 115 105 60 120 125 75 17000 gil
Zero Cerberus 120 125 105 60 120 125 75 26000 gil


Medium Cerberus

This path is a balance between the Power and Speed Cerberus, not really excelling in either but also not having a serious weakness. It also has a high ammo count.

Gun Weight Speed Power Range Short Medium Long Price
M Cerberus 420 80 110 60 120 125 75 10000 gil
M Cerberus γ 420 80 115 60 130 135 80 17000 gil
Quantum Cerberus 240 80 120 60 130 135 80 26000 gil


Ultima Weapon

This is the most powerful weapon of the Handgun type, though first the player must upgrade a few very weak, seemingly joke weapons. It is not related to the Cerberus branches.

Gun Weight Speed Power Range Short Medium Long Price
Model Gun 30 85 1 5 40 40 40 N/A*
Silver Model Gun 30 85 2 5 40 40 40 15000 gil

Machine Guns

Machine Guns work as their real-world counterparts. They are very effective at close range against several opponents thanks to their fast Speed, but their recoil and weight make them difficult to use at long range. They also have very low power.

Griffon

Gun Weight Speed Power Range Short Medium Long Price
Griffon 1050 150 25 20 65 55 20 1000 gil
Griffon II 1050 150 35 20 65 55 20 2000 gil


Power Griffon

This path favors the power stat.

Gun Weight Speed Power Range Short Medium Long Price
P Griffon 1050 130 50 20 80 70 35 5000 gil
P Griffon β 1050 130 60 20 80 70 35 10000 gil

Dueling Griffon 1050 130 75 20 90 80 45 26000 gil


Speed Griffon

This path favors speed and low weight. It also has the highest range of all the Machine Guns.

Gun Weight Speed Power Range Short Medium Long Price
S Griffon 810 200 35 20 65 55 20 5000 gil

Sonic Griffon 300 200 35 40 65 55 20 26000 gil


Medium Griffon

This path strikes an effective compromise between power and speed.

Gun Weight Speed Power Range Short Medium Long Price
M Griffon 900 150 35 20 65 55 20 5000 gil
M Griffon β 900 150 40 20 75 65 35 10000 gil

Starry Griffon 300 150 50 20 75 65 35 26000 gil


Blast Machine Gun

This weapon, unrelated to the Griffon branch of Guns, does not have very good stats, but is useful in its ability to knock down nearly all regular enemies.

Rifles

Rifles are slow weapons but are very precise and accurate. They have excellent range and work very reliably at long range. Combined with the Sniper Scope, they are the perfect weapon for long range combat.

Hydra

Gun Weight Speed Power Range Short Medium Long Price
Hydra 1050 65 140 140 120 120 140 1000 gil

Hydra III 1050 65 160 150 125 125 150 5000 gil


Power Hydra

This branch focuses on power over the other stats. These weapons have very small magazines and are incredibly slow, thus limiting their usefulness.

Gigant Hydra 1050 1 280 200 160 160 180 26000 gil


Speed Hydra

This branch focuses on the Speed and Weight stats, thus weakening Power. But it is more balanced than the Power Hydra.

Gun Weight Speed Power Range Short Medium Long Price
S Hydra 570 85 130 150 125 125 150 10000 gil
S Hydra γ 330 85 130 170 125 125 150 17000 gil
Feather Hydra 30 125 130 170 125 150 170 26000 gil


Medium Hydra

The most balanced of the three branches. It is the only one of the three branches that does not sacrifice some stats to boost others.

Gun Weight Speed Power Range Short Medium Long Price
M Hydra 570 55 160 150 125 125 150 10000 gil

Velvet Hydra 570 80 170 170 125 125 150 26000 gil
