    Exact weapon rarity differences

    Hi.
    Sry for double post, if this topic already exists, but I have a question what is difference between same weapons if they are white, green blue, violet and orange? I have a VBI sniper rifle in all colours but no difference. Orange rifle has syphon on meele but blue has normal incendiary element. So question is blue is better then orange?
    For what is then orange weapons? Thx.

    No difference in base stats. 1 rarity up from white = +1 bonus attribute.
    The lesson here is, orange isn't everything. Check stats if which has more useful attributes to you. The one with more weight wins, regardless of color.

    Bonus attributes increase with full master points? Or bonuses are fixed.
    Thx.

    Its easier to get a Green with good stats compared to an orange as the chances of getting 4 perfect stats are much larger than getting 2. Oranges, in any game without random generated stats, would be much better, but not in defiance.

    Most oranges are just a disappointment. They are so hard to get and when you do eventually get one in a box, its normally crap. They all should have minimum stats on them and then randoms added on top, if they want. If you knew all Orange shotguns had a specific stat that no other weapons can have, then they would be special. D3 did this, Legendary items in that game were crap on launch and have since been buffed (from what I hear) so surely they can make fishing for these orange things worth the effort.

    I only have 1 orange weapon that is remotely any good, but I did use an orange grenade for 2000 ego lvls as the refresh time still beat purples at that stage.

    I think the bonus does increase, I have seen it posted here somewhere...

    The bonuses that you get with a fresh weapons are fixed.

    You will get an additional attribute if the weapon's XP bar is full.

    Do all guns give a weapon mastery bonus? Last night I had to weapons that I just maxed out but no bonus.

    Some of them do. I know the FRC Purple SAWs generally have some sort of damage buff or something. Usually though, any stat bonuses are fairly small. You have to add more mods to really get significant improvements.

    Whites will rarely have bonuses.....as you level up, some whites come with one bonus, greens will have one or sometimes 2 bonuses(and they will be BETTER bonuses than the whites), blues will almost always have 2 bonuses that are also better than the greens bonuses...and so on. At high levels, the purples always have 3 bonuses(one of which will always be something like "10% ego refresh on full reload" or "25% of stowed weapon reloaded on a kill". Oranges have 3 bonuses inherently, with a 4th bonus added at higher levels.

    In closing, the higher rarity guns(purple/orange) have better and more bonuses than the low rarity(whites, greens)

    The oranges are the only guns that have a 4th inherent bonus, and it's a tree of bonuses it chooses from that only oranges have. For example: x1.10 fire rate and others
