How to get it

The Rotary Cannon only drops in missions, from gun cases (amber) dropped by enemies, bosses and mission wins. It can drop once you’re level 9 or higher: gear more than 2 levels above you never drops.

Elite is the grade rolled on 0% of drops on tier-1 maps, 10% of drops on tier-2 maps, 32% of drops on tier-3 maps, and 45% of tier-3 boss drops. See loot and drops.

A gun you already own is scrapped for gold when it drops again.

Upgrades

Spend gold in the Inventory to upgrade each part up to its grade’s cap. Taking every part to the cap costs about 68,000 gold. An Augment Core plus gold then pushes a capped part 2 levels further at 1.5× strength.
