Power Cells are one of the most important resources in Solo Hunters. They are the primary way you increase the level of your weapons, which directly increases your damage output and overall power. Upgrading weapons early makes dungeon runs much easier, and it’s one of the fastest ways to strengthen your character.
Where to Find Power Cells
Power Cells are mainly obtained by completing dungeons. Every dungeon run tends to reward multiple Power Cells — especially if you clear it successfully. You can also find them sometimes from special events like Power Break portals or other in-game activities.
Since dungeons are the core progression loop of the game, you naturally get Power Cells as you play. This means the more you grind dungeons, the more cells you earn, and the stronger you become.
How to Upgrade Weapons Using Power Cells
Upgrading weapons is straightforward, but you need to know exactly where to go and what to spend.
Step-By-Step Weapon Upgrade Process
Open Your Inventory
Press the button that brings up your gear and items.
Here, you can see all weapons you’ve collected from dungeons.
Select the Weapon You Want to Upgrade
Click or tap on the weapon you want to improve.
Your base weapons’ power is often more important than rare ones early on, so choose wisely.
Click the “Level” Button
Once the weapon detail screen is open,
Find and press the button labeled Level or Upgrade.
Use Power Cells to Increase Weapon Level
Each upgrade costs a certain number of Power Cells.
The more you invest, the higher the weapon’s level — and the more damage it deals.
Confirm the Upgrade
After choosing how many cells to use, confirm the upgrade.
Your weapon’s stats will increase immediately.
Upgrading weapons in Solo Hunters isn’t just cosmetic — it’s core progression.
- Increased Damage Output: Higher weapon levels mean you kill enemies faster.
- Higher Power Score: Power Cells improve your weapon’s contribution to your overall power, unlocking tougher quests and stronger dungeons.
- Dungeon Efficiency: Stronger weapons make dungeon clears quicker, giving you more rewards per hour.
- Progression Loop: Better weapons lead to better performance in harder content, which leads to more Power Cells and better gear.
The upgrade loop becomes a feedback cycle — the more you dungeon grind, the stronger your weapons become, and the tougher dungeons you can attempt.
How to Use Power Cells Efficiently
Upgrading every weapon you own isn’t always the best idea, especially early on. Focus on:
Your Main Weapon First: Invest Power Cells into the weapon you use most.
Legendary / Mythic Weapons: These weapons often have higher growth ceilings; powering them up gives more long-term benefit.
Don’t Spread Cells Thin: It’s better to have one very strong weapon than multiple weak ones.
