Crafting Your Weapons Up To Legendary

[Yankee_LT]

So, I have ALL the perks needed in the "Tech" category in order to craft Legendary weapons. But here's my issue. I have a Purple AR, so then I craft that certain AR so it will be upgraded to a Legendary weapon correct? Nope nowhere to be found. I crafted a Blue AR so I can move it up to a Purple. Did that happen? No, once again. So what's seems to be the issue here?

Thank you.

You need the legendary recipe to build a legendary weapon, upgrade is just DPS + mods upgrade.

" I have a Purple AR, so then I craft that certain AR so it will be upgraded to a Legendary weapon correct? "
- this is not correct, doing this will result in having 2 purple AR rifles.

"I crafted a Blue AR so I can move it up to a Purple. "
- you can improve the stats of a blue weapon by upgrading it but this will not take it to the next tier (purple) it will be a better version of the same blue weapon.


The issue is that you're not looking in the right menu for upgrading, if you go to crafting there will be a tab for crafting (which is opened up by default) and a tab for upgrading. To upgrade a weapon you click on the upgrading tab, select the weapon you want to upgrade and click and hold down the upgrade button.

Not sure which weapon AR is, but I had an issue where the legendary crafting recipe for the Dying Night gun wasn't showing in my crafting interface after I'd upgraded the pistol to epic from rare. I didn't think too much about it, thought I must have to find the recipe somewhere in the world, carried on with my game. Checked the crafting interface next time I logged in for something else and the legendary recipe for Dying Night was right there all of a sudden. I put the recipe being missing first time down to a bug, not sure if it was though!

You have to leave the crafting menu and go back to see the new blueprint sometimes.
