Strengths

  • Carries support effects to weapons that the original support cannot reach.
  • Multiple repeaters can extend the same route through a crowded backpack.

Weaknesses

  • A repeater without an incoming effect adds no useful support.
  • Moving or rotating one link can disconnect equipment farther down the chain.

When to pick it

A useful support cannot directly reach the weapon you want to improve.

When to skip it

The source already reaches the weapon, and the repeater would displace needed damage or protection.

Priorities

  1. Start with one support feeding one repeater and one working weapon.
  2. Confirm the weapon highlights the original support as a source.
  3. Add a second repeater only after the first connection works.

Builds and combinations

A minimal arrangement is support → Wi-Fi Repeater → weapon. Put the repeater inside the support’s valid selector, then put the weapon in the repeater’s output selector. Physical adjacency alone does not establish either connection.

Hover the weapon. The original support should highlight as a contributing source and its effect should appear on the weapon. If it does not, check each selector and the source’s accepted item types before adding more repeaters.

A chain can pass through more than one repeater. Each link needs a valid input and output. Recheck the final weapon after a merge or bag change; moving the first repeater can break every later connection.
