Weapon Upgrades
- Main article: Weapon Upgrades
Weapon Upgrades are addons that enhance or customize the stats and attributes of the weapon. Uncommon or rarer weapons gain Experience Points when players use the weapons. As the weapons gain EXP, upgrades will be unlocked. Players can "learn" these upgrades by spending certain currencies such as Glimmer.
- Rarer weapons have more upgrades.
How to Obtain Weapons
Weapons can be obtained through fighting enemies in the Story mode, the Crucible. They can be given as rewards for completing daily bounties, Daily and Weekly Heroic Strikes and the Weekly Nightfall. They are sometimes found in loot chests, engrams, and earned as rewards for fighting in the Crucible.
