Otherwise, they can be obtained from chest, booster packs, can be looted from defeated opponents, or be purchased from offers. Legendary and Unique weapons also come with unique Shadow abilities, but carry three perk slots and one special slot. All Epic weapons come with unique Shadow abilities and carry two perk slots and one special slot.
All rare weapons of a faction share the same Shadow abilities and carry one perk slot one special slot. Common weapons do not have any Shadow Ability and carry one slot. The higher the rarity, the better the weapon (they have higher upgrade value, better shadow abilities and more perks and special moves can be attached to them). Unique have the best rewards when completing the set. There is also another rarity called Unique. Weapons are classified based on their rarity: Common, Rare, Epic, and Legendary. Weapons increase the damage done through attacking with 'punch' button, also changing the animations.
