Learn how to equip trinkets in Warhammer 40,000: Darktide. Follow these simple steps to customize your weapons and show off your unique gear.

Alright, so you've been grabbing all sorts of cool trinkets in Darktide, but you're not sure how to actually slap 'em onto your weapons? No worries, it's pretty straightforward once you know where to look. Think of it like adding those little charms to your backpack – just a bit more grimdark.

Here’s the rundown on how to get those trinkets equipped:

  1. First things first, you'll want to open up your Inventory. You can usually get to this by heading to your Character screen and then selecting the option to view your loadout.
  2. Once you're looking at your loadout, find the section for either your Melee or Ranged weapons. Pick the specific weapon you want to deck out with a trinket.
  3. With your weapon selected, look for the Appearance button. You'll need to press this to get into the customization screen.
  4. Inside the weapon's appearance menu, you'll see a few tabs up in the top left. You're looking for the second tab – that's where the trinkets hang out.
  5. Finally, just select the trinket you want from the available options, and boom, it's equipped!

Just a heads-up, you'll typically earn these trinkets and other cosmetic goodies through completing Penances, snagging the Imperial Edition, or sometimes from the microtransaction shop. If your trinket page looks a bit bare, you'll need to dive into earning more cosmetics first.

Oh, and if you were playing during the beta or got the Imperial Edition and are missing your unique trinkets, Fatshark is aware and working on getting them to you. You'll usually get a notification on the right side of your screen when they're ready.
