Weapon Crafting V1.0

Weapon Crafting V1.0

This is my take on weapon crafting in Starfield, by utilizing new items called Weapon Kits!
Weapon Kits are a new crafting component needed to craft weapons, in addition to using vanilla resources.
A new workbench, the Weapon Crafting Workbench, has been added too – you’ll use this to craft your weapons. So how does this all work?

Let’s say you want to craft an AA-99. To do that, you first place down the new workbench in your outpost, ship or home!
After that, you’ll need a Weapon Kit – AA-99 and other resources to fully craft it. These new weapon kits can be purchased from various vendors or looted.
Once you have all the resources, use the workbench and craft your weapon! This will also consume the Weapon Kit, these are one-time use only.
Crafted weapons will be created based on your level, for example, the AA-99 may end up being an Advanced AA-99. However, no weapon attachments will be added during crafting.

Weapon Kits
Each craftable weapon has its own weapon kit.
They act like any other resource and are getting consumed during the crafting process.
They are quite expensive, but still cheaper than buying the weapon you want to craft.
Due to the nature of these kits, weapons don’t need as many other resources for crafting.

Where to get Weapon Kits
Weapon Kits can be purchased from various vendors around the Settled Systems.
Below is a list of vendors and which kits they sell.

Arboron – Exclusively sells Arboron Weapon Kits
Centaurian Arsenal – Allied Armaments, Melee Weapons, Old Earth Weapons, CombaTech, Kore Kinetics
UC Distribution Center – Allied Armaments, Melee Weapons, Old Earth Weapons, CombaTech
Aludra, The Key weapon vendor – Exclusively sells Crimson Fleet Weapon Kits
Laredo Firearms – Exclusively sells Laredo Firearms Weapon Kits
Rowland Arms – Melee Weapons, Old Earth Weapons

Weapon Kits can also be looted, and Va’ruun ones are only obtainable that way.

Crimson Fleet Weapon Kits can spawn as loot on Crimson Fleet members
Old Earth Weapon Kits can spawn as loot on Spacers
Va’ruun Weapon Kits can spawn as loot on Va’ruun Zealots
Furthermore, all Weapon Kits have a low chance to spawn as loot in rear loot containers, such as boss chests.

Other Crafting Requirements
Weapon crafting is locked behind the Weapon Engineering skill. Below is a list of which skill rank unlocks which weapons!
I based the skill rank on which levels these guns usually spawn in as loot and at vendors.
