ELEX 2 builds upon what the original game started, offering improvements on how players can build their characters, as well as collect and upgrade gear in a few new ways. Players can pick up weapons that enemies drop, and upgrade them at the smithy to get improved versions of them. That is a great way to increase your damage-dealing ability, but the numerous unique weapons you can find are important if you want to really maximize damage. Here are all of the ELEX 2 Unique Weapon locations we've found, both with a map and individual locations!
We also have an ELEX 2 Map Piece Location Guide and Map, if you're seeking those out too!
There are 29 Legendary Weapons in ELEX 2:
- 7 One-handed Unique Weapons
- 2 Unique Shields
- 4 Two-handed Unique Weapons
- 9 Ranged Unique Weapons
- 7 Heavy Unique Weapons

ELEX 2 Unique Weapons Locations - 1 Handed
#1 - Thumper (Mace)
This is likely the first one you'll come across, as you walk up to the Bastion for the first time.
#2 - Troll Reaper (Axe)
Probably the second best 1-handed weapon in the game (Cutter below is #1), still incredibly solid at end-game. This one is atop the lighthouse, which can be reached even with a basic jetpack.
#3 - Hero's Call (Axe)
Found in some abandoned ruins on the far west side of the map. You'll have to go here during one of Crony U4's missions.
#4 - The Razor (Sword)
Found north of Thompsontown, behind the counter of a car repair shop.
#5 - Butter Knife (Sword)
Solid sword during early and mid-game. You'll be able to have this crafted by Lasse in the Berserker Fort in "The Weapon of An Artist" Mission
#6 - Grinder (Mace)
Found Northwest of the Crater Cliff teleporter, you'll find this on the ground surrounded by enemies you'll want to take down first.
#7 - The Cutter (Sword)
Arguably the best 1-handed weapon in ELEX 2 - you'll find The Cutter inside the Epsilara Former. You'll have to head all the way inside, into the room with the column of light. It's at the top of the winding staircase, guarded by numerous Skyands.
ELEX 2 Unique Shields
#8 - Steel Net
This 100% Damage Reduction shield can be found in the ruins of Thompsontown, indoors leaning up against a couch.

Found inside the "Betara" Former a little southwest of the Alb Depot. This is just inside the door of where the computer console to shut down Betara is.
ELEX 2 Unique Weapons - 2-Handed
#10 - The Executioner (Axe)
You'll find this down on the ice, east of the Ignadon Old Converter, after you take down an Ice Troll you can snag this.
#11 - Basher (Mace)
Just outside Mararcor, you'll find this along the road near some boxes.
#12 - Hacker (Axe)
You'll find this in a scrapyard on the furthest west edge of the map, leaning up against a locker.

You'll find this just outside Betara's Teleporter, atop of a column of rock surrounded by Lava. Best two-handed weapon in ELEX 2.
ELEX 2 Unique Weapons - Ranged
#14 - Fang (Crossbow)
Like Thumper, you can get this one early on for some solid damage output. At the front of the fort, right across from the teleporter - you'll find it up in the guard tower that looks north.
#15 - Bringer of Blessings (Energy Weapon)
You'll find this inside a well-camouflaged hut to the southwest of Thompsontown. If you help Ivan in The Berserker fort, you'll run right past this.
#16 - Calaan's Light (Energy Weapon)
You'll find this atop the old Converter to the northwest of the Berserker Fort.

Inside Mararcor on the southeast side, behind the pulpit of a crumbling church.
#21 - The Master Blaster
Found in a small ruin just outside of the Bastion.
#22 - Thunderclap (Shotgun)

You'll find this inside one of the Skyand "growths" on the south side of Thompsontown - you'll have to come here for the main quest.
