Don "Rigs" Rigler (Remnant II)
Need to upgrade a weapon? Need to downgrade a weapon? Rigs is your man.
Free Upgrades
Note that you can only have one of each weapon. If you find a weapon you already have, picking it up upgrades it by +1. This works up to +5. After that, picking up a "duplicate" weapon gets you Scrap. Unless you need to upgrade a weapon immediately, being patient and finding multiples of the same weapon is a good way to get five free upgrade levels.
