*Weapons from Trials of the Nine and Raids have a set of two Traits rather than a set of Magazines and Batteries perks.

^Lost Prophecies weapons have 3 Sight/Barrel perks and 3 Magazine/Battery perks. Most other Legendary/Masterwork weapons have 3 Sight/Barrel perks and 2 Magazine/Battery perks, though quite a few, including all Legendary/Masterwork Swords, have 2 Sight/Barrel perks and 2 Magazine/Battery perks.

Note: Quest-reward weapons of a particular rarity may have the perk characteristics of the next rarity up (example: Lionheart, a Rare quest reward, has the weapon perk characteristics of a Legendary weapon).
