Notes[ | ]

The Black Widow can be purchased from the following merchants:

The singleplayer stats shown on this page are baseline: Initiative I armor, no skill points assigned, no profile active.

The following augmentations cannot be applied to the Black Widow during development:

It is advised not to apply the Electrical Conduits augmentation to the Black Widow due to an automatic firing problem. (See here for details.)

The singleplayer uncrafted Black Widow will always drop a random augmentation on deconstruction. (See Augmentation Drops for odds of recovery).

The multiplayer stats shown are accurate as of Multiplayer Update - November 7, 2018.

All multiplayer specialized variant weapons are separate weapons compared to the Ultra Rare version.

Due to the different versions of the Black Widow in multiplayer, it is possible to equip multiple versions at the same time in the Loadout screen.
