Question T 2.0 Weapons

[Moto]

Hi , Question , how can i Unlock Tier 2 Weapons?

First you need to unlock the base after completing sector 13, then it's the second upgrade from there... So, plausibly you're a little bit away from it still.

I have no idea where you are, but I can't imagine that T2 weapons are the difference maker for your situation if you haven't unlocked the base at s13 yet.

You will get the next tier of weapon before you can even afford it's use. so you don't need to worry about it as it won't help you even if available. Starting price will be more salvage then you can generate until you get enough boosts in other areas. The boost in DPS isn't that high until you can actually level the new weapons to around lvl 50 where your weapons get their unique boosts. you will still run lower tiers of weapons for their stat boost without the cost as those are consistent no matter the tier.

There is one exception to this rule and that is when a active challenge mode disables core upgrades in which case you want to go for the highest tier weapons possible even if you normally can not afford it yet.

The boost worth switching isn't at level 50, it's at level 60. a +2x modifier on shields and damage is an insanely vital boost, if you can't afford to get a T2 weapon/shield to level 60, don't bother, for reference it takes just under 2e16 salvage to get it.

A T1 level 60 is stronger than a T2 level 59 of any weapon or defense because the level 60 scales with elapsed time during a run whereas the level 59 is static and does not get stronger by doing nothing Luigi-style.
