'''Weapon Crafting''', referred to in universe as '''Shaping''' is a feature introduced with ''[[The Witch Queen]]'' expansion which allows players to make, upgrade, and customize their own weapons. It can be accessed by interacting with the [[Relic (Mars)|Relic]] found in [[The Enclave]] in [[Savathûn's Throne World]] near the left-hand side of the map. The Relic where weapon crafting is performed is found behind large black doors down the steps in The Enclave.

====Deepsight Resonance====
====Deepsight Resonance====
'''Deepsight Resonance''' is a new weapon feature also added with the Witch Queen expansion. Weapons with extractable '''Patterns''' have a chance to drop with Deepsight Resonance, marked by a red border around the icon of the gun. In order to extract the pattern, players can dismantle the weapon, or if they wish to keep using it, they can fill up the bar labeled '''Attunement Progress''' to progress the pattern without destroying the weapon. Once a weapon's pattern is fully extracted, future copies will no longer drop with Deepsight Resonance.

====Patterns====
====Patterns====
'''Patterns''' are needed to craft weapons and are unlocked by extracting Deepsight Resonance from a certain amount of the same gun. For example, in order to craft an [[Austringer]], you will need to extract the resonance of five Deepsight Austringers in order to unlock the pattern. Your progress for patterns can be seen by going to '''Patterns & Catalysts''' under the Triumphs page. Some weapons require more Deepsight Resonance extractions than others in order to unlock their pattern.

Some weapons require more Deepsight Resonance extractions than others in order to unlock their pattern. Players can also use '''Deepsight Harmonizers''' to unlock patterns faster at the cost of one harmonizer and [[Spoils of Conquest]] on craftable [[raid]] weapons.


====Alloys====
====Ascendant Alloys====
'''Alloys''' are a random material drop from dismantled Legendary weapons. These alloys are needed to select between different Intrinsic Traits. '''Resonant Alloys''' are needed to craft most weapons, while '''Harmonic Alloys''' are needed to craft [[Raid]] weapons and drop by dismantling craftable raid weapons.
'''[[Ascendant Alloy]]s''' are needed to craft weapons with '''Enhanced Perks'''. They can be obtained from [[Master Rahool]] (once per week), the weekly campaign missions, some seasonal activities, the Master version of [[The Wellspring]], as well as from [[Banshee-44]] upon reaching reputation rank 16 or the Seasonal vendor's track.

==Weapon Upgrading==

They can be obtained from [[Master Rahool]] (once per week), the weekly campaign missions, some seasonal activities, the Master version of [[The Wellspring]], as well as from [[Banshee-44]]'s or the Seasonal Vendor's track.
Weapons can have their perks changed and upgraded by going to the '''Reshape''' tab when interacting with the Relic. Note that you cannot reshape weapons that are locked and/or that are currently equipped. Adept raid weapons can only be upgraded by reshaping the weapon and then spending Glimmer and Upgrade Materials to unlock the ability to enhance the traits that dropped with the weapon.

===Leveling Up===
===Leveling Up===
Newly crafted weapons will only start off with a handful of perks and intrinsic traits. In order to unlock all the available perks from your weapon, you must level up the weapon by getting kills or completing activities with the weapon. You may also spend resources to upgrade your weapon, with increasing costs as level increases. You can track your progress by checking the "Weapon Level" progress bar beneath the weapon's Power Level. Your perk options will increase per level and all perks and their enhanced versions will be unlocked by level 16.

Players can also level up a weapon instantly at the cost of Glimmer and Upgrade Materials.


When a weapon reaches level 7, it can be reshaped to have an enhanced intrinsic trait, giving it bonuses like a Legendary weapon's Masterwork. When a weapon reaches level 20, this intrinsic trait will have its value increased. Intrinsic traits cost Resonant Alloys, or Harmonic Alloys in the case of Raid weapons.
