Burns (.0): Weapons with this tag cause burns instead of bruises or cuts.They cause Injury Conditions such as Burned Arm or Scorched Face.
Defensive (2): If the weapon isn’t used to attack this round, it grants a +1 Enhancement to defensive rolls instead of the attack. Once it is used defensively, it can’t be used to attack.
Double (.0): The weapon has two sides that can deal different types of damage. The wielder can switch the weapon between being a Bashing weapon or Lethal weapon, but can only use one type each round.
Fragile (-1 or -3): Some weapons can break when used with too much force. The negative one-point version means you have a level-one Complication that you need to overcome when you make an attack with it or else it will break. The negative 3-point version means that the weapon automatically breaks once you’ve hit someone or something with it.

Prototype (-1 or -2): Prototypes are experimental weapons that can be more powerful or introduce a new feature but are also prone to glitching or jamming. Prototype weapons have a Complication of a level equal to this tag’s negative cost; failing to beat that Complication gives the weapon the Glitched Condition (see below).
