Part of the appeal of games like Diablo 3, Destiny 2, and The Division is the constant hunt for better and more powerful loot. In many cases, the gear offers combat bonuses to make the player stronger, while also giving their character a more exotic look and feel. Anthem, BioWare's first stab at the looter-shooter style game, is currently available in early access, giving players plenty of opportunities to discover some of the more interesting weapons in the game. One Reddit user managed to put together a complete list of every masterwork level weapon currently available.

Within Anthem, masterwork level items are some of the best and most powerful gear that players can come across, just sitting below the Legendary tier of gear rarity. They display with an orange hue and have a better chance of appearing when players play some of the more difficult missions the game has to offer on the various Grandmaster difficulties or taking on Legendary Contracts and Strongholds. Not only do these items have a unique look to them, but they also come with special perks and abilities already built into each one.

Naturally, this list will likely continue to expand over time as Anthem is considered a live service game which means new content and updates are rolled out on a semi-consistent basis. In fact, BioWare has previously released a downloadable content roadmap for the game following its launch on Friday. The free updates are set to begin in March with the first story act called Echoes of Reality. In addition to more story content, the first act is set to include all kinds of new content like events, quality of life updates, new strongholds, new rewards, and much more.

Anthem releases February 22 for the PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
