Makeshift Assault Rifle

Weapon · WeaponAssaultRifle0

Assault rifle cobbled together from scrap. Individual rounds hit soft, but it reaches far and empties fast.

Makeshift Assault Rifle is an early assault rifle: 64th of 70 by attack, so treat it as a stepping stone, at 170 against the 15,000 of Charge Rifle.

It feeds no other recipe, which makes it a terminal item: craft what you will actually carry and stop there.

At 15 weight each it eats carry capacity fast, so bring a mount or park a chest nearby. At 27,940 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.

Every Tier of Makeshift Assault Rifle

The same piece exists at 5 rarities, and the gap is not cosmetic: attack runs 170 to 297, a 1.7x swing. Which one you end up with is decided by the rarity of the schematic you built from, not by the recipe — so a legendary copy of this is worth more than the next item up built from a common one.

Alternatives and Upgrades

Step up from here and you get SMG at 175 attack; step down and it is SMG at 156. The size of that step is what decides whether the crafting bill is justified yet.
