Star Wars Outlaws blaster upgrades

Your blaster will eventually have four functions, with two available to you in the beginning – Plasma Module and Stun – and two unlockable as you progress through the story – Ion Module and Power Module. Once you have the prerequisite crafting components, head to the workbench on the Trailblazer, where you can unlock new modules and upgrade existing ones.
