How to get it
Every account owns the Scattergun from the start: new Vanguards start with it.
Scrap is the grade rolled on 40% of drops on tier-1 maps, 10% of drops on tier-2 maps, 0% of drops on tier-3 maps, and 0% of tier-3 boss drops. See loot and drops.
A gun you already own is scrapped for gold when it drops again.
Best classes for it
- Vanguard: a close-range gun for the class that stands at the front.
Upgrades
Spend gold in the Inventory to upgrade each part up to its grade’s cap. Taking every part to the cap costs about 1,460 gold. An Augment Core plus gold then pushes a capped part 2 levels further at 1.5× strength.
