Quick notes

  • Give each holster slot a distinct job. A silenced firearm or bow supports quiet outposts, a general rifle handles open fights, and an explosive weapon deals with vehicles.
  • Use towers before buying every standard gun. Radio tower progress unlocks standard weapons for free in shops.
  • Treat signature weapons as specific collection rewards. Signature weapons use named requirements such as relics, memory cards, letters or full tower completion.
  • Read the attachment compatibility before spending. Not every weapon supports the same suppressor, sight or magazine options.
Useful tip

Not every weapon supports the same suppressor, sight or magazine options.
