Chaos Wastes rewards
Buy weapons at Waystone Altars
Turn temporary expedition currency into a better run weapon when an altar offers a useful choice.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Buy weapons at Waystone Altars
Waystone Altars encountered along the Chaos Wastes pilgrimage route.
Before you go
- Start a Chaos Wastes Expedition and collect Pilgrim’s Coins.
- Know which character’s run weapon is weakest or least suited to the team.
- Review the altar’s displayed cost and item before confirming a purchase.
Farming steps
- Follow the chosen pilgrimage route until a Waystone Altar is available.
- Approach and inspect the weapon offer and required coin cost.
- Compare the offer with your current expedition weapon and your remaining route needs.
- If the weapon is useful and affordable, spend the displayed coins to acquire it.
- Equip or use the weapon for the remainder of the run as appropriate.
- If the offer is poor or too costly, keep the coins and continue along the route.
- Reassess at a later altar, remembering that the expedition build ends with the run.
- Higher-priced altar gifts tend to be stronger, but evaluate the actual offer rather than buying by price alone.
- Keep enough flexibility for later boons or shrine opportunities instead of spending the entire coin supply immediately.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat whenever an altar offers a worthwhile weapon during an Expedition. Purchases are temporary and there is no persistent weapon collection from these altars.
Common mistakes
- Buying an upgrade without checking what the altar offers; compare it with your current weapon first.
- Spending all coins at the first altar; preserve currency for later opportunities that may fit the build better.
- Expecting the weapon to appear in the Keep after the run; Waystone weapons belong to that Expedition.
When to stop or switch
Stop shopping when the offer does not improve the run enough to justify its cost; continue the route and reassess at the next altar.
