You can repair weapons—or in fact any other piece of equipment—if youvisit a tech NPC. These characters are usually located in big settlements and offer their services upgrading and repairing your worn-down gear. The first tech you’re likely to encounter is Lens in Zalissya, butyou can spot them on the map via their little spanner icon.

Speak to Lens, open the upgrade screen, and select the weapon you want to repair. In the bottom right corner of the screen, you’ll spy the “Repair” option as well as a price in coupons it’ll cost you to fix up the weapon. If you’ve got the necessary cash, then hit R and your gun will be repaired. You can tell the current condition of your weapon via the shield symbol next to its name in the upgrade menu: a yellow shield if it’s worn, and a red shield if it’s broken.

So what does weapon durability actually do? Well,guns with low durability are less effective in terms of stats, and you won’t be able to trade them with most NPCs if they drop below 40%.
