Unique charge lance

For the regular variant of this weapon, see Charge lance.

The unique charge lance is the unique weapon variant of the charge lance, a heavy, single-shot ranged weapon which deals a high amount of damage per shot with commensurately high AP, a longer time between shots, an above-average range, and high overall accuracy.

Each unique charge lance comes with a combination of traits that make it different from other charge lances.

Acquisition[edit]

Unique weapons can be obtained through quests, found in loot boxes like sealed crates, sealed containers, or ancient safes, found while fishing, or gifted by visitors. Unique weapons can also rarely be dropped by raiders. Ancient Mercenary and Orbital Item Stash quests will always contain at least one unique weapon, typically masterwork or legendary quality.

Weapons depot and ancient garrison map features do NOT contain unique weapons, nor do ancient dangers.

Summary[edit]
