Affixes

Affixes are modifiers that can be applied to weapons to alter their performance, mechanics and occasionally add new mechanics. Affixes are divided into 4 categories; Preset, Green , Blue and Alt-Fire. Elements are also counted as affixes.

Preset affixes are affixes that are always found on certain weapon types without fail. Green and Blue affixes are functionally the same; they are affixes randomly generated from the pool of modifier affixes that may modify the performance and projectile mechanics of a weapon, with the only difference being the number of each on a given weapon based on rarity. Alt-Fire affixes are a form of affix that adds a secondary mode of attack to applicable weapons with various different effects, selected from a pool of applicable affixes.

The chance of finding a weapon with affixes can be increased through both upgrading the Basecamp and through certain Gadgets.
