Perk Resources

Replacing or Upgrading Perks costs three new resources:

• RE-PERK!
• PERK-UP!
• Core RE-PERK!

• RE-PERK! is available throughout all zones starting in Plankerton and above.
  • It is used to change or modify a Perk.
• PERK-UP! is also available throughout all zones starting in Plankerton and above, but also has different rarity levels only found in later Zones of the game.
  • It is used to upgrade the rarity of a Perk.
• Core RE-PERK! is only available from Ventures Level-Up rewards and Quests, Weekly 160s Quest and certain Ventures Questlines like Imposter!.
  • It is used to change the last (sixth) perk on Legendary Weapons.

In addition, you’ll be able to choose which element you want on your weapon. This modification requires elemental resources:

• FIRE-UP!
• AMP-UP!
• FROST-UP!

• You can obtain these resources by completing Mission Alerts with a specified Element Modifier.

Legacies

Weapons and Traps that haven't been converted to the new Perk System are considered Legacies. They have outdated and some unobtainable Perks. Perks on a Legacy Item cannot be changed unless it is converted to the new system.

• When players attempt to modify the perks of a Legacy Item, they will first be prompted to opt-into converting the Legacy item into the new system.
• Before opting to convert the item, the system presents you with a before-and-after preview of any changes that may occur to the item.
• In some cases, there will be no change, and in others the perk loadout may be altered.
• Sometimes, a ‘Free’ slot may appear. Free slots allow players to choose what goes into that slot for free after the conversion is accepted.
• In all cases, the Conversion process is free, and on a per-item basis. This means that each Legacy item must be converted to work with the Perk Recombobulator, one-at-a-time. Once the process is performed on an item, you’re free to begin customizing that item’s perks!

Perk Slots

• Elemental items now have a dedicated perk slot.
• Perks have five levels of power; (Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary)
• If you want your Legacy item to reach its full potential, you’ll have to convert it using the Perk Recombobulator.
• Each perk slot has a range of possible perk types that it can contain.
  • Players can choose to replace a perk in a given slot, but the list of perks that a slot can be changed to is limited in scope, and varies from slot to slot.
• Some perks cannot be changed at all.
