Once Human: What do the weapon colors mean? Explained

The game at its core plays like any other RPG like Starfield, which also shares colors to highlight the weapon attributes. In the space epic, the color highlights the weapon’s damage. If it’s green, the gun is in the middle area in terms of how much damage it does. When it has the purple banner, that is as far as that weapon can go for its damage.

 For Once Human, it’s a little different. Every weapon and piece of gear in the game will be color-coded. This seems to have more to do with the weapon’s rarity rather than how it performs. To make the gun better, each one has tiers that can be upgraded. When upgrading, the color does not change. If you find a green weapon and upgrade to tier 5, the color stays green. This may take a little time to get used to because in games like Fortnite when the weapon is upgraded, it changes the color to reflect the damage.

As I’m finding weapons, I pay attention to the other attributes like calibration, the mods I can play, and upgrading it to at least the second tier because that’s what matters the most. If you come across a weapon that is purple or yellow, for example, it might not be as powerful as a green weapon you have. This is because you’ve leveled up the weapon to the highest degree.
