How to Get Immediate Execution in The First Descendant

How to Get Immediate Execution in The First Descendant

To get the Immediate Execution firearm in The First Descendant, you can grind two different missions in the Agna Desert zone’s The Remnant area. The Agna Desert is the fifth overworld zone in the game. Therefore, you must play through the main story campaign to unlock access to it. If you are new to the game, and playing with your first character, you will need to fully advance your first Descendant to Level 40 and beat the Dead Bride before you can unlock it.

The best spot to farm the Immediate Execution in The First Descendant is:

  • Agna Desert zone, The Remnant area, Abandoned Reconstruction Site battlefield mission

Furthermore, the Immediate Execution is a rare hand cannon that you can only get through random drops. Consequently, you cannot craft it at the Research Institute with Anais.

Best Modules for Immediate Execution in The First Descendant

Rifling Reinforcement, Marksman, and Target Detection are the best weapon mods for Immediate Execution. Rifling Reinforcement is a mod you’ll want on nearly every gun, and it’s worth maxing out with Kuiper shards as soon as possible. Consequently, when fully enhanced, it will nearly double your Firearm DPS combined with Action and Reaction. Marksman and Target Detection combined will boost your Crit Rate and Crit Damage and strengthen your attacks against Weak Points.

Maximum Module Capacity

Max Capacity Up on Weapons - the First Descendant

When upgrading weapon mods, be aware there is an increased cost and a max module capacity of 80. The material needed is Energy Activators, and you will get one of these after playing through the end of the campaign, or you can craft them with Anais. Therefore, you want to balance increasing mods and not attempt to max out every one. A balanced approach to firearm ATK, critical chance, and critical damage is the best (+3 or so to each).

Best Weapon Stats for Immediate Execution in The First Descendant

Best Weapon Stats for Immediate Execution in The First Descendant

In the First Descendant weapon stats are randomly generated for all weapons when they drop or are created via crafting. You can change (or re-roll) them through the Weapon Readjustment system, which is covered in more detail below.

There are the best weapon stats for Immediate Execution in The First Descendant:

  • Firearm ATK
  • Firearm Critical Hit Rate
  • Firearm Critical Hit Damage
  • Weak Point Damage

In the First Descendant, weapon stats are randomly generated for all weapons when they are picked up as loot or picked up after crafting. You can change (or re-roll) them through the Weapon Readjustment system. Each weapon has four random traits or stats that can be rerolled to find the ideal trait. These regenerated traits are also random and so is their quality. Therefore, expect to spend a lot of materials to min-max the perfect roll.

How to Upgrade Immediate Execution

The First Descendant provides several different avenues for upgrading and improving your weapons by using their repair station Workbench. The Workbench is located in the same general area as Anais and weapons seller Deslin on the west side of Albion.

Weapon Transmission

The First Descendant Weapon Level Transmission explained

When you pick up a dropped weapon in The First Descendant it will have a level that corresponds with the level of the zone it generated in. However, you can easily bring it up to your current weapon level by using the Weapon Transmission mechanic at the Workbench.

Finally, you will need to reach Mastery Rank 3.

To level up Immediate Execution in The First Descendant you will need:

  • Phase Exchanger
    • 50 Superalloy
    • 2,500 credits/gold
    • 2:30 of research time

To get Superalloy in the First Descendant you will need to dismantle many weapons you don’t want by junking them. This breaks down the weapon into crafting materials you can use to make other items. Consequently, we highly recommend breaking down all of your excess weapons instead of selling them. Credits are easier to earn just by playing the game and completing missions.

Weapon Readjustment

How To Use Immediate Execution

How To Use Immediate Execution in the First Descendant
