6 Best Weapons in Dying Light

Dying Light puts you into a city called Harran, where you will need to fight both zombies and humans to achieve your goal. The game allows players to choose from a wide range of different weapons. However, not all of them can help you out in critical situations. Therefore today, to help you select the best weapon in Dying Light, we are going to mention a couple of them and explain why they are better than others.

Best Dying Light Weapons 

Keep in mind that we are going to mention those weapons that we think are amazing in Dying Light. You might find some other weapons better than these ones, and that is totally okay. 

God Hammer

The God Hammer can help you become Thor from the Avengers. By only looking at it, you’ll be able to tell that this weapon can destroy even the toughest of opponents.

However, the God Hammer isn’t something that you can find as regular loot or as a reward for completing a mission. Instead, you’ll need to get the God Hammer Blueprint and create the weapon yourself.

The Blueprint can be found during the Chasing Past side quest. During the mission, you’ll enter a workshop inside an apartment, and the Blueprint will be waiting for you to pick it up at a workbench. You’ll then

• 2x Strings
• 2x Batteries
• 2x Power Cables
• 2x Metal Parts
• 2x Aerosol
• 1x Electronic Parts

You can then combine these parts with a Two-Handed Hammer or a Small Hammer to create the God Hammer in Dying Light. 

German 9mm Pistol

Some of you don’t know that you already saw the German 9mm Pistol at the start of the game when the protagonist arrived in Harran city. However, he had to get rid of it because of some reason, so you’ll need to find it again.

Thankfully, it is not difficult to get, considering you can find it in most of the Police Vans scattered throughout the cities.

There is another method of getting that weapon, which involves visiting a house in the Slums and picking up the pistol from the feet of a guy who committed suicide through it. Sounds disturbing, right? Well, on the bright side, you’re getting a free weapon.  

Crossbow

One thing to remember is that the Crossbow is not available in the normal version of the game. You will need The Following expansion pack to get your hands on it.

The crossbow is located in an orange train car right next to Jasir’s Farm. After you have located the train, you’ll need to make your way inside it, where you’ll be able to pick up the Crossbow.

The best part is that you’ll also find a couple of bolts and a Blueprint right next to the Crossbow. This Blueprint will help you transform it into a deadlier weapon. 

Helluva Homerun Baseball Bat

For those interested, we suggest you get your hands on the Helluva Homerun Baseball Bat if you’re serious about using the Baseball to conquer the world of Dying Light.

The Blueprint for this weapon is available for only those with The Following expansion pack. You will need to visit the Hydro Dam Building in the Countryside and then go to a room with a metal chest inside it. This metal chest will provide you with the Helluva Homerun Blueprint, and you’ll need the following parts to craft it:

• 1x String
• 1x Metal Parts
• 2X Gauze
• 1x Household Supplies
• 2x Aerosol

Angel Sword

For this, we will suggest the Angel Sword, which is arguably the best sword in Dying Light. Its damage output is amazing, and you won’t regret choosing it as your primary weapon.

You’ll first need to get the Angel Sword Blueprint to acquire it. To do that, you will need to complete the Troll quest in Old Town and receive the Blueprint as a reward at the end. The following parts are needed to craft the Angel Sword in Dying Light:

• 2x Aerosol
• 2x Batteries 
• 2x Metal Parts
• 2x Power Cables
• 2x Duct Tape
• 1x Electronics 

The best part is that you can create the Angel Sword by pairing the parts with either a Long Sword or a Short Sword. The decision is totally up to you. 

Fenris Axe

If you are someone who is planning to get an Axe, then we will suggest your hands on the Fenris Axe. There are two methods of acquiring the Fenris Axe Dying Light. The first method includes taking down a Demolisher as they usually drop one upon getting eliminated.

However, if you cannot get one through them, you can follow the second method in which you’ll need to complete a challenge called Bloodlust Bounty. The challenge requires you to chop off three zombies in a single hit, and you’ll need to do it thirty times.

This might sound challenging and all, but it isn’t as difficult as it sounds. We suggest you use a Katana for this purpose, a weapon we’ll talk about later.
