📖 About
🔑 Just a simple Guide to unlocking powerful weapons, legendary gear, blueprints, and other rare rewards.

🔧 Note 🔧

🏹 Hunting Crossbow
The Hunting Crossbow is an endgame weapon unlocked via:
⠀⠀➥ 🕹️Side Quest ➔ "Hunting Yaga" (Lvl 11)
⠀⠀➥ 📍LocationNational Park

This mission appears after you unlock the 🏠Abandoned House Safe Zone in the National Park. Max will appear in your hideout and task you with hunting a Yaga, promising the crossbow “Lizzy” as a reward.

⚠️ Mission is tough
  • You’ll face a miniboss and waves of human enemies in a forest at night
  • So ideally, attempt it near the end of the game when your character is fully leveled
    • ... or YOLO like me in co-op ;)

💡Tip ➔ Volatiles
  • Hardest part is dealing with 💀Volatiles, which are attracted to loud sounds
  • Stick to melee / stealth for safety ➔ Avoid guns‼️

✅ Reward = Hunting Crossbow
  • Crossbows have no durability.
  • Most enemies die in 1-2 shots depending on size and hit location.
  • Fired bolts can be picked up and reused.
  • Crafting bolts is cheap: 4 bolts = 12 Scrap + 2 Feathers.
  • Special bolts (Fire, Shock) can be unlocked at Safe Zones.
🎯 Shotgun
📜 Story Mission Reward
Easiest way to get the Shotgun is during:
⠀⠀➥ 🕹️Story Mission ➔ "A New Strain" (6/17)

Mid-mission (cutscene), Kyle grabs a scientist’s shotgun ➔ adding it permanently to your inventory and giving you access to powerful one-shot-one-kill attacks.

🚂 Monastery Bridge Convoy
Probably even easier ➔ loot the convoy on the bridge, check the train wagons, and grab regular shotgun

➥ 📍Location: 🗺️Map[mapgenie.io]
➥ 🎁Bonus: The Elite (Legendary Pistol)

🪖 Enemy Drops
After completing Story Mission "Power Gambit" (5/17):
⠀⠀➥ Some human enemies in Castor Woods will spawn with guns.
⠀⠀➥ A few heavy types carry shotguns, which can be looted if you defeat them.

🚚 Military Convoys
Feeling Lucky?
⠀⠀➥ Convoys have a chance to include a shotgun along with ammo and other rare items.
⠀⠀➥ Available early in the game.
🗡️ Korek Machete【Strauss&Broda】
⠀➥ 🐣Easter Egg: Fan-favorite Korek Machete returns with a new name.
    • 🚶How to Get? ➔ Easy to miss!
      • Obtain it on the roof of Nate Market (NW of Memorial Hill of Heroes)
      • In a small locked room
      • 💡Knock 77× on the wall-mounted stash box to open it
⚔️ EXPcalibur II
⠀➥ 🐣Easter Egg: Legendary sword from 1st Dying Light returns with V2
    Collect 8× sigils for Pentagram:
    • The Void ➔ Cave behind waterfall SE of the Monastery
    • Blood ➔ Fountain in the park E of Valentine Asylum
    • CurseN of Memorial Hill of Heroes, near skeletal remains
    • Death ➔ Catacombs beneath Old Town church (enter via main doors)
    • Sacrifice ➔ Ruined structure SW of Abandoned House, National Park
    • Witch’s Mark ➔ Small shack further SW of Abandoned House
    • The Moon ➔ Narrow path by waterfall SW of the Monastery
    • Shadow ➔ Small altar inside Exile's Cave
      • 💡Note: Appears mid-story, likely to prevent unlocking it too early.
Go/Return to the summit and place the 8 stones on the posts bracing the blade ➔ this triggers a fight. Defeat the ambush, and the sword is yours.

🖐️ Last Hand of gloVa
⠀➥ 🐣Easter Egg: Harry Potter × Minecraft × Nazi gold train[en.wikipedia.org] (disappeared in Poland during WWII)
    • 📍Location: 🗺️Map[mapgenie.io]
    • 🚶How to Get?
      • On top of the bridge, look for the debris-covered train tunnel with ❝9¾❞ written on the wall.
      • Walk through the wall and smash the Minecraft gravel blocks.
      • At the back of the train you’ll discover the blueprint.
    • 💥Effect: When used, your character makes a hand sign and triggers an explosion in front of them.

Was just in that cave sidequest full of infected that the dad (william) helped the cops put people there.

Then the game crashed during conversation with said npc.
Kai 28 Sep @ 7:48pm 
Yeah it could be a bug, some things trigger and some doesn't.

About other weapons/secrets/etc you guys posted here ➔ Thx 🫶 I'll try to add them (and more) later today
RalfekS  [author] 28 Sep @ 6:49pm 
@Kai hmm... I don't think there's any spawn requirement for axe (I got it when I was Lvl ~6) and just spawned again ➔ maybe some bug on your end?

Here're some screenshots ➔ maybe will help you?

The legendary axe isn't there so I think there is a level requirement to make it spawn.

In the north west forest - Where the blue 'bear woods river' is written is a mansion. In there is a golden collectable item. there is also an aesthetical item of note (to me) that refers to some old mine complex.

Helping the guy whose father did the tunnel thing, in the mine if you can either hide pretty well/ kill all the volatiles out with a bow/ other way, you can crawl around the space. You find items like a baby crib, notes of betrayal and over-stepping authority, etc. There is also a reference to another cave complex somewhere 'east' but I haven't found it yet. Anyone else had luck?

There is also a tunnel with red meat in the north, I can see something behind it (if you Q near the walls/door you see some item? But its not openable.
Daniel_Zabojca 25 Sep @ 3:12am 
Does anyone know what the archeological site area entrance requires in order to open? I have the icon, I see the entrance, it is unmarked on the map (north east climb up the cliffs, near the tunnels and the broken red brick shrine thing and wooden bridge.

Add UV BARS to the blueprint section. it is in the unmarked cabin NEXT to the cargo station tower safehouse in the north east. It has a screamer in it, then you need to lockpick a door

i dont know if this is consistent or not but when i leveled up my Strauss&Broda it evolved into a new legendary called "THE BRESLAU BLADE" and it looks like a saber on the inventory picture but i think mine is bugged and physically like a regular machete
