Looking for a full DOOM The Dark Ages weapon Challenge list? Once you’ve invested enough gold, rubbies, and wraithstones to fully upgrade a weapon, you’ll unlock a Mastery Challenge. It’s basically a little bonus challenge to test your skills with that particular weapon and earn some bragging rights in the process. Note that they are different to Mission Challenges, which are mission specific objectives that grant gold.
While not essential to a playthrough, completing the Mastery Challenge for every weapon is needed to unlock the Fully Loaded and Gunpletionist trophies. In this guide, we’ll walk you through a full weapon Mastery Challenge list, including the criteria for each one, which we unlocked while playing for our review.
