→Hunting Rig Classifications
Although each Hunting Rig is unique, they are designed to incorporate ritualised combinations of weaponry, so that groupings of hunting styles can be identified. But as the suits adapt to suit the wearer, even two suits that were similarly designed may be completely different by the end of the hunt.{{Fn|3b}}
;Orrus: the most brutal of the Spyre aspects. Specialising in brute force, they are characterised by oversized, piston-powered arms containing [[Bolt Launcher]]s built into their [[Orrus Power Fist]]s.{{Fn|2}}{{Fn|11}} They are also protected from shooting attacks by a [[force field]]. Orrus rigs typically evolve by increasing the caliber and firing rate of the Bolt Launchers or by increasing the effectiveness of their force field.{{Fn|2}} However , a variety of alternative loadouts exist for Orrus Rigs users to choose from, such as [[Volkite Discharger]]s, [[Disintegration Matrix]]es, and [[Orrus Power Talons]].{{Fn|11}}
;Jakara: The lightest but most agile of the Spyre hunters, specialising in speed and mobility. They are equipped with a [[Monomolecular Sword]] and a unique [[Jakara Mirror Shield|Mirror Shield]] which can absorb energy-based attacks and fire it back at their enemies. Jakara rigs evolve by increasing the mobility and speed of the wearer, as well as increasing the sharpness of their sword. They also adapt by expanding the types of energy absorbed by their shield, or even evolving to absorb and reflect kinetic projectiles{{Fn|2}}{{Fn|3b}}
;Malcadon: The most subtle and cunning of the Spyre groups. They are armed like spiders, with [[Web Spinner]]s designed to immobilise the enemy so they can be torn apart by their vicious claws. They are also equipped with climbing hooks and hydraulic pistons to allow the wearer to reach perfect ambush points. The Spinnaret weapons can also be used to generate strands of web to aid in climbing. These suits evolve by synthesising neurotoxins for application to their claws, or by increasing the range and area of their Spinnaret weapons.{{Fn|2}}
