As a new player, the survivors of the undead virus may wonder what weapons they can use to maximize their efficiency so early on in the game, and there are plenty of choices available, as long as the player is aware that they won’t be gunning down their enemies with an arsenal of machine guns.
Although the Ranger Bow is part of the Harran Ranger’s Pack DLC, this weapon has great base damage and is craftable from the very start of the game. It’s an easy weapon to craft and one that players might want to carry with them for a long time. Having a weapon that shoots is always an advantage, especially when it allows them to remain in stealth through this open-world horror game.
The bow has ammunition that can be crafted thanks to its use of arrows. It deals a great deal of DPS and is the second-highest damage bow in the game. Considering it’s available from the start with the right DLC, the Ranger Bow is a must-have for Dying Light early-game weapons.
A unique and legendary melee weapon makes its way into Dying Light. This sharp melee weapon can be found in a scripted encounter, and it involves the player venturing to the Fisherman’s Village in the southeast part of the Slums. Here, they will want to swim out to a rocky island, an island that could be safe during the night.
On this island, players must hold the action button on the sword for 2-3 minutes to claim the sword. Considering the EXPcaliber is easy to get to from the early game, it’s a great weapon to have, even if it cannot be repaired.
