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.

Downgrade Weapons

If you need resources and don't feel like farming them, Rigs can downgrade a weapon by reverting it to +0 and giving you back a portion of its upgrade cost. What you receive depends on how many levels you're downgrading.
