If a weapon breaks, you can simply take it again as many times as you want.

Dying Light 2: How to get the Legendary Goon Smasher Weapon
If you haven’t started your game in a long time and you decide to boot it up now, you will find an info screen that the city has been infected by Goons.

The quest that you need to begin is called “Something Big Has Been Here”, which unlocks by completing “The Only Way Out” quest.
Once you jump into the game, you will automatically track the quest. You can also find the quest in your journal.
The quest will require you to track and kill each elemental Goon. Simply follow the quest markers to complete it.

Killing each goon will award you with the following rewards:
- 1000 Combat XP
- 500 Parkour XP
- Blue Crystal Core
Once you reach part 4 of the quest, you will be challenged to face all 3 goons together at once. It’s a hard challenge, a quick tip to know here is that you can trick them into hitting each other.
When you complete this part of the quest, you will receive:
- 3000 Combat XP
- 1000 Parkour XP
- Goon Smasher Weapon
To obtain this weapon, you will need to go to Aiden’s Stash and open the “Extras” menu on the top border of the screen.

From there you can redeem the Goon Smasher and whenever you break it, you can come back after 10 in-game hours and take it again, which means that you can have this weapon for an unlimited amount of time.
