Ranged Weapon Upgrades Question

Unread post by RiftJunkie »

I'm still kinda new to Splicers, so bear with me.....

When you add Mega/Omni/Super/Ultra to something like a Casting Thrower, does it remain when you grow it to a Casting Launcher or do you need to get the Upgrade again?

Thanks in advance.

just make sure you pay close attention, or you may find that you're paying more for an upgrade that doesn't do more :P

(after all, upgrading your weapon frequently comes with multiple extra benefits rather than just the one; that's fine if all you want is, say, extra damage, but if you find your casting thrower needs more damage *and* more range, you should upgrade to a launcher).

I thought the casting gun went DOWN in range as you upgraded it... am I thinking of a different weapon?

Borer(sp?) guns, the grub shooters, are the ones that go down in range.
