The final upgrades also require either Ascendant Shards or Ascendant Energy (for pre- House of Wolves weapons only). Legendary weapons also require either Spinmetal, Helium Filaments, Spirit Bloom, or Relic Iron. Uncommon and Rare weapons typically only require glimmer and Weapon Parts to upgrade.

Additionally, while certain weapons will have a more or less "linear" upgrade tree, some weapon trees will diverge into different "branches", allowing for certain weapons to have more specialized applications as well as making it impossible to obtain all upgrades for that particular weapon. Each individual upgrade per weapon is unlocked with more experience. Each weapon has an upgrade path that allows certain capabilities and improvements to be applied to the weapon, at the cost of a certain amount of Glimmer and potentially other materials. Weapons that are Common quality or better are capable of being upgraded by Guardians. This re-rolls their stats, but resets progression. Ĭertain weapons are re-forgeable, which is done by Lord Saladin. This encourages Guardians to plan their weapon selection in advance before entering a firefight. It should be noted that while Guardians are able to switch their weapon selection at any time through the menu, this comes at the penalty of losing both special weapon ammo and/or heavy weapon ammo for the switched guns. Exotic weapons, meanwhile, can only be purchased from Xûr, Agent of the Nine, acquired through an exotic bounty, or as a random reward during a Raid or Nightfall Strike. This is the only way to obtain Legendary weapons, outside of the very rare chance of finding a legendary engram or earning them as a random drop in a Raid. All the factions, the Vanguard and the Crucible sell Legendary weapons of each type. Basic and Uncommon weapons can be easily purchased at the gunsmith, with Rare weapons sometimes available. Rarity of the weapon as well as armor is color coordinated into five tiers: Basic (white), Uncommon (green), Rare (blue) Legendary (purple), and Exotic (gold). Many of the weapons in Destiny carry "implied fiction," bearing details of its creator, where it came from and the sort of person who had wielded it.

These weapons have a damage bonus against absorption shields, with an additional bonus to matching shield energies. Certain weapons are infused with different energies - Solar damage, Arc damage, and Void damage. Purple is the rarest ammo to find, encouraging Guardians to use heavy weapons sparingly. Ammo for the weapons will be color coded by slot type white for primary, green for special, and purple for heavy. The third slot is for heavy weapons such as rocket launchers and heavy machine guns. The secondary slot is for specialty weapons that are highly situational such as shotguns, fusion rifles, and sniper rifles. The primary slot is for the weapon used most frequently, such as auto rifles, scout rifles, pulse rifles, and hand cannons. Įach Guardian has 3 weapon slots to be able to carry a Primary, Special, and Heavy Weapon on their person, with the potential to store and access up to 9 additional weapons of each type. Scopes and various sights have also been seen. Such notable "exotics" include the Fate of All Fools, Thunderlord, Patience and Time, Red Death, and Gjallarhorn, along with Thorn, Pocket Infinity, and Super Good Advice. Each weapon type contains exotic variants, which are given a unique name and which have additional abilities and/or effects.
