How much does it cost to upgrade weapons in STALKER 2?

It costs as much as it costs – early game guns aren’t expensive to upgrade, but the further you get, the bigger your bill will be. Before long, something like attaching a laser to a weapon or boosting its damage output will cost thousands of Coupons.

What is the best weapon in STALKER 2?

That’s a subjective debate, as one man’s trash is another man’s treasure.
