Hi just bought a chain sword (heavy eviserator?) from the bounty guy to get the shred 4 blessing so i could put it in an axe. Axe currently has shred 3, but shrine doesn’t give me the option to change the unlocked shred 3 to shred 4. It will only let me put shred 4 on another chainsword. Is there no shred 4 for axes? The crafting is so confusing, I only bought the weapon for the tier 4 shred. Is there a way to see what the <?> tier blessings are so i can at least see what tier 4 blessings can be used on each weapon? Is shred a different blessing on each different weapon, and i needs to be locked separately for each one?
The crafting in this game is bonkers. Blessings can only be used on the same type weapon. You’d need to buy/get Shred 4 from the same family of axes, as the axe you want to put it on. (There are tactical axes and combat axes. If you have a tactical axe, you need to get shred 4 from another tactical axe, and so on.)

blessings with the same name do not necessarily have the same stats or in some cases functionality, or sometimes two identical functionalities will have different names for some reason. it’s a rich tapestry. sometimes bugs will effect some but not all instances of say, fire frenzy. i think a lot of this is hangover from when blessings were intended to be consumable, like gems or something.

Damn that is confusing but thanks for clearing that up. I wasted 3100 credits 
As of now, the crafting system really is quite unintuitive and a bit hard to get into, without having read through the patchnotes since crafting was implemented.
I never thought much about it, since i do read all of the patchnotes and have been around since before release, but now that i saw this post, i did think about it, and agree that the system is confusing and not properly explained ingame.
FS could make a little tutorial sequence that has you upgrade a weapon and sacrifice an other weapon of the same type to rebless the weapon you upgraded.
This tutorial should explain that blessings are “weapon family bound”.
Also maybe they should add a little info text in the menus where you extract blessings, and where you rebless.
Earn blessing:
When extracting a blessing, the weapon gets destroyed. The extracted blessing is permanently unlocked and can then be applied to any weapon of the same type.
Rebless:
In order to replace a blessing on your weapon:
1. select the blessing you want to replace
2. select a new blessing from the catalogue of blessings that are available for the weapon
In order to add a new blessing to the catalogue, extract the blessing from a weapon of the same type.

Yeah I haven’t exactly looked, since the patch notes have told those of us who read those, but I’m 99.9% sure little to nothing about the crafting is actually explained in-game.

It would also be good to see what the locked blessings are instead of question marks. Also when selecting a blessing to extract it could list all the weapons it can be applied to. I found a website that lists all the blessings which should help. The Evicerator, combat axe, sword, force sword etc shred being different is painful though, seems unintuitive when the blessings have the same name.
Yes.
There is a mod that does this, but it really should be default.
Reveal Blessings at Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Nexus - Mods and community (nexusmods.com)
No idea why they would purposely hide information, thereby making you rely on third party websites to find out which blessings are even available for your weapon.
