Starfield features a wide variety of unique and legendary weapons, like most games in the RPG genre. Unique weapons perform differently from their standard counterparts, often granting the player new abilities, modifiers, and buffs. These will make you more effective in combat while adding a tinge of flourish and novelty.
If you want to be the best at combat and take down your enemies effectively and quickly, acquiring unique/legendary weapons is well worth the time and effort.
