Unlockable Weapons

Overview

Unlockable Weapons are customizable weapons that you have to unlock in order to wield. After they are unlocked, you may choose them in your costume options at either Icon or a Facemaker. Currently, there are several ways to unlock the weapons. Defeating a certain number of a specific enemy type, gaining a badge, completing certain story arcs, or purchasing a weapon with Vanguard Merits are the four currently utilized methods of unlocking a weapon. As of issue 12, there are no weapons unlocked by crafting a recipe drop.
