To farm a particular weapon, players can unlock "Attunement" and set a specific weapon as "attuned." Doing so will significantly increase the drop rate of the attuned weapon.

Special mention should be given to the Origin Trait, Indomitability, which will be present in all the weapons mentioned above. It states the following:

Final blows grant bonus Grenade energy when playing in Light subclass or melee energy while playing with Darkness subclass
