Cyberpunk 2077 Gear and Weapon Rarities
InCyberpunk 2077, the loot rarity system follows the typical ARPG loot format and that of TheWitcher 3, whereas items are divided into five color-coded categories. The system also applies to every item you can get in the game; the list below is the full-color system from worse to best.
Along with borrowing the traditional loot system, all items also have unique stats and buffs that make each piece of gear feel unique. There are even named weapons you can find in the game through special quests, and there is even a special sub-weapon variant called Iconic weapons.
Iconic weapons are a subclass of standard armaments that can be continuously upgraded to allow them to be used through a playthrough. They also have rare perks and abilities that none of the standard weapons in the game can have. That said, you can get Iconics from Looting, Quests, and stores throughout the world; you will also get one early on when you leave your apartment for the first time.
