How to Use Mastery Points to Upgrade Weapons

You must use the Mastery Points in a particular weapon’s perk tree in Warhammer 40k Space Marine 2 and upgrade it. You can choose which aspect you want to upgrade based on your preferred playstyle. 

Each weapon has two perk trees, and you can choose which one of them to upgrade. Mixing between the two trees is not currently possible in Space Marine 2.

Each weapon has four tiers:

  • Standard – Default
  • Master Crafted – 1500 Exp
  • Artificer – 7500 Exp
  • Relic – 17000 Exp

Upgrading weapons improves their tier, along with giving them a new appearance. The higher your weapon’s perk tier, the more devastating it will become in combat. If at any point you want to change the perks of your weapon or use a different perk tree, you will be able to do it for free.

Note that you cannot just unlock any perk for your weapon as the game follows a tree system. For some perks, you must unlock other perks higher up in the tree first.
