Beast of Reincarnation Weapon Upgrades: What to Improve First, and What Not To


 

In Beast of Reincarnation, weapon upgrades aren't a standalone system. They're tied to Cleanse Walker levels and skill-tree progress. That means you'll often hit a situation where you want to upgrade a weapon, but the equipment screen tells you to raise the Walker's capacity or level first.

Many players respond by searching for a "best weapon tier list" and upgrading accordingly. But there's a risk in that: the released data does not establish a universal damage ranking. A reliable Beast of Reincarnation weapon upgrades guide instead advises: upgrade the weapon you can use consistently, not chase an unsupported tier list.

Four Upgrade Categories

The current weapon record splits upgrade targets into four categories, each answering a different question:

Blade — Your reliable close-range tool, and the weapon used for parries, blade arts, and ripostes. Its core value isn't displayed damage — it's whether you can parry and recover with it reliably.

Crossbow (Spring Thunder Crossbow) — A ranged option for creating pressure before an enemy reaches Emma.

Arrows and Bolts — Ammunition choices. These resources should be matched to the encounter, not spent on every ordinary target.

Walker Upgrades — Capacity and level improvements that open the equipment and material loop.

A Sensible Upgrade Order

The guide's order isn't based on damage numbers — it's based on reliability:

  1. Upgrade the blade you can parry and recover with reliably

  2. Keep one ranged option supplied for bosses and enemies that punish close contact

  3. Improve Cleanse Walker capacity and level when the equipment screen blocks the next upgrade

  4. Add elemental or mod coverage after you know which weaknesses your current route actually presents

Confirmed material names include Generator Devices, Electronic Brains, and Memory Chips, used in Walker progression.

What "Best Weapon" Doesn't Prove

This is the most important point in the whole guide. The released data does not establish:

  • A universal damage ranking

  • A frame table

  • An identical upgrade path on every difficulty

A weapon with a larger displayed effect can still be a poor choice if its recovery is unsafe for your timing.

So the method the guide offers is simple: change one variable at a time, test against the same enemy, record the build before comparing results. That's far more useful than copying a tier list.

Why This Approach Is More Practical


Weapon upgrading isn't about finding "the strongest one" — it's about making Emma's combat loop more stable. If your parry rhythm is already shaky, upgrading a high-damage but slow-recovery weapon will only get you killed faster.

To understand upgrade priorities and material gates, start with this weapon upgrades guide — it'll tell you what can be confirmed, and which claims currently have no backing.

The Question Every Mortal Shell II Beta Player Asked: Did Any of My Progress Matter?

  Anyone who played the Mortal Shell II Open Beta probably asked the same question after launch: was my dozens of hours of progress wasted? The answer comes in two parts: the inventory was wasted. The experience wasn't. What Got Reset The official statement is direct: currency, weapons, Shells, collectibles, and other items found during the Beta were all reset at launch . The reason is stated too — to preserve the balance of the full release. That's standard practice for a test build, but plenty of players still farm materials hoping something will carry over. There's a concrete lesson here: farming materials, optimising builds, and chasing a perfect loadout during the Beta didn't convert into an advantage in the full game. If you spent a lot of time on those during the test phase, that time genuinely produced nothing. The Two Things That Did Carry Over The Flayed Harbinger cosmetic — claimable in the full game simply for playing the Open Beta. Note that it's pur...

What Does a Reaction Time Test Really Measure? – From Neural Pathways to Real-World Risks

You’ve probably taken a reaction time test before – staring at a screen, waiting for a colour change, and clicking. But do you actually know what this test is measuring? Let’s break it down. 👇 ⚡ The three core components A reaction isn’t “instant.” From stimulus to response, your brain goes through three steps: 👁️ Sensory reception – eyes or ears detect the signal 🧠 Central processing – your brain makes a decision 💪 Motor execution – your muscles carry out the action A reaction time test measures the total duration of all three – it reflects the transmission efficiency of your entire neural pathway. A simple reaction time test measures sensorimotor speed and sustained attention ; a choice reaction time test, on the other hand, additionally measures the decision‑making process – the more options you have, the slower your reaction, as described by Hick’s law. 🧠 Cognitive health: variability matters more than speed The traditional view is that a reaction time test measures “how ...
