How to get Artificer tier weapons in Space Marine 2

If you want to succeed in the Operations mode in Space Marine 2, you must upgrade your weapons to the Art🔯ificer tier and upward. These are much more powerful andꩲ provide more perks than the base versions.

Here’s what you need to kn🤪ow how to ge𒁃t to that tier and above.

How to get Artificer tier weapons in Space Marine 2

To upgrade your weapon tier from Standard or Master-Crafted up to Artificer (purple), you will need to start playing Operations at dif♛fi🌼culty Threat: Substantial. As you progress through new tiers of weapons in their respective trees, you need the same matching Armoury Data chip.

For example, 𝓰we consider the🍒 Power Sword to be one of the better weapons in the game. Upgrading it from Standard to Master-Crafted will require a green Armoury Data chip, which can ꧋be 𒆙earned from defeating bosses or finding them in a “Threat: Average” difficulty mission. You’ll also need the weapon’s XP to be at max.

You’ll know when you’re ready to upgrade your weapon to the next tier when the tab reads “Unlock for 1 (Armoury Data) or higher”. Now app🎉ly this by upgrading from green (Master-Crafted) to purple (Artificer).

The Substanti𝔍al difficulty in Operations mode is going to be a lot♏ tougher but will help unlock new weapon tiers once you find the Armoury Data chips.  

Why aren’t the Artificer tier weapons unlocking?

Another common problem you may run into is that the XP bar isn’t full despite having mastered all the weapon variations in your current tier. This may happen simply because you paid to master a variant of a 🦋weapon to skip the XP grind. 

What you still need to do is make up for the XP you did not gain when you skipped that mastery. As long as you’re🐟 using weapons within the previous tier (Master-Crafted), you’re building up that bar to unlock Artificer. 

Once you hit that tier, you should finally see a prompt to unlock that tier, but as previously mentioned, you will ไhave to start playing on the Substantial difficulty. All you need is one chip and you now have access to the third tier of weapon upgrades (as long as you have the credits for them).
