The NS Commando is a melee weapon available to Nanite Systems Operatives. It is unlocked by default.

The NS Commando is the standard issue knife issued to all non-Defector operatives. It deals a moderate amount of damage per swing, and has a relatively fast swing speed. It can be used both as a quick melee weapon, as well as a wielded melee tool.

To quick melee with this weapon, press the Melee Attack hotkey ( by default) while holding any other weapon. To equip this weapon for wielded melee, press the Equip Melee hotkey (- by default).

Ribbons and Medals

It is possible to earn both Ribbons and Medals while using the NS Commando. Each ribbon is a standard reward for achieving a set amount of kills with the weapon. Medals are awarded upon reaching kill milestones with the weapon.
