How to Fish Weapon Attachments — Suppressor, Compensator & More
Weapon attachment guide for How to Fish covering suppressor, compensator, sights, extended magazines and tested attachment trade-offs.
Attachments observed in launch-day play
Video-tested: Weapon shops and upgrade menus show attachments including Suppressor, Compensator, Sniper Scope, Red Dot Sight, Laser Sight, and Extended Magazine, alongside repeated damage/bullet upgrades.
Suppressor vs Compensator
A key tested limitation is that Suppressor and Compensator occupy the same choice: buying/equipping one replaces the other rather than stacking both.
For high-recoil automatic weapons, both were tested as ways to make the gun easier to control. The exact recoil numbers are not exposed in the supplied footage, so this guide does not invent percentages.
Sights
Red Dot and Laser are convenience/aiming tools. A Laser is especially useful when attempting hip-fire or no-scope trick shots because it gives a visible reference without using a scope.
Extended Magazine
Extended Magazine is useful on automatic weapons and in add-heavy fights. Some weapon types do not accept every attachment; one multiplayer group specifically found a mismatch while trying to put an extended magazine on a double-barrel-style shotgun.
Upgrade priority
For bosses, direct damage and controllability generally produced more value in the videos than cosmetic purchases. Buy the sight you actually use, then prioritize the attachment that fixes your current weapon’s biggest weakness.
