Materials Needed
Damage
Crafted Bow
Crafted Club
Crafted Spear
Molotov
Time Bomb
The most efficient ammunition for bows are Stone Arrows. These are easy to produce, requiring only x4 Small Stones, x2 Feathers, and x2 Sticks. Assembling a Time Bomb involves gathering rarer materials like Wire and Circuit Boards. Wire is typically found in storage containers or bunkers, particularly in a small cave west of the snow-capped mountains, and south of the island's dividing river.
This cave leads to a room containing a desk, laptop, and 3D Printer. Circuit Boards are found within electronic devices, again found in storage areas, tents, or cannibal camps. You can obtain them by smashing radios or laptops using a Tactical Axe.
Alternatively, you can discover powerful weapons that don't require crafting at all. A great find is the Pistol, found near the island's northwestern shore by a beach cove. Look for an orange raft bobbing in the water, reachable by a short swim, but be wary of sharks lurking in its vicinity.
Once you climb aboard the raft, you can claim not only the Pistol, but also its ammunition, food, and medical supplies. Bear in mind that ammunition for firearms cannot be crafted, and can only be found by looting caves, bunkers, or storage units.
If you establish a relationship with Virginia, you can arm her with the pistol, turning her into a valuable ally for defense and base protection.
