Progress Through Weapon Tiers
Understand the Tier System
Weapons are organized into eight tiers, starting from basic handguns and escalating to superweapons like Tesla cannons and airstrikes. Each tier requires progressively rarer materials and offers increased firepower and utility.
Advance Gradually
Begin with Tier 1 pistols using common resources. As you defeat mobs and gather materials, move to Tier 2 and Tier 3 weapons like SMGs and assault rifles. These mid-tier options provide better damage and fire rates for base defense.
Hunt Bosses for High-Tier Components
To access Tiers 5-8, you must defeat world bosses that spawn naturally or through specific conditions. These bosses drop rare components essential for crafting missile systems, bombardment tools, and Tesla cannons.
Craft Strategically
Search the recipe book for your target tier number to see all available weapons. Plan which weapons suit your playstyle—rapid-fire rifles for mob swarms, or heavy artillery for base sieges. Stock ammunition for your preferred weapons to ensure consistent defense.
