Weapons are one of the five categories of items available to the player in Band of Heroes.
Aquiring weapons[]
- Common weapons can progressively be bought in the game's depot using in-game 'war funds'.
- Uncommon weapons are available through completing tasks, missions, and collections; and through bonus drops.
- Rare weapons are available only through random bonus drops.
- Epic (or 'premium') weapons are (rarely) available through random bonus drops, and a limited supply is occasionally made available through the depot's contraband section, where they can be purchased using 'favors'.
- There is currently only a single 'legendary' weapon available, the M1897 Trench Shotgun DX, which is only available for favors in the depot's contraband section. It is the most expensive item in the game, requiring 198 favors. When the weapon was first offered this was the maximum amount of favors a player could earn in-game without paying with real money, or completing offers, for more. The addition of more missions (and consequently more favors being available) means that this is no longer the case.
