Question about weapon Tier
« on: August 20, 2011, 09:28:16 PM »

What exactly does this mean or do? As far as I can tell, it isn't even needed by the game, as it loaded my CSVs without it fine.

It's something for the next tier of gameplay. Basically, a lower tear means the weapon is one of the following:

  • worse quality
  • blueprint for it is generally easier to obtain
  • from an earlier Domain epoch

Details TBD, obviously.

So I can just sort of ignore it until details are fleshed out?
