Equipment Traits¶

Equipment Traits make an item more unique. Some Traits can be added to a weapon via attachments and upgrades.

Every Trait costs RES. The RES cost is added to the weapons RES cost. If a character does not have enough RES for both the weapon and the Trait, the Trait is lost first.
