Far Cry 6 Best Weapons

The biggest addition to Far Cry 6’s combat is the Resolver and Supremo weapons. Both are special types of weapons that can put you at a great advantage against your enemies. However, even though the number of weapons in the game is high, not all of them are going to help you conquer Yara. There do exist some weapons that you should avoid using at all costs as they won’t help you bag in a lot of kills.

Pistola Sportiva

We’ll begin our list of the Best Far Cry 6 Weapons with the Pistola Sportiva. This weapon is easily one of the best secondary weapons in the entire game. This is mainly because of the fact that it offers amazing handling, something that will let you land your shots accurately on your targets.

MP40

The MP40 is yet another weapon on our list that can help you bag in some kills quickly. Since it’s an SMG, its rate of fire is high and it also offers great handling. The weapon has a clip size of 32 bullets, which is decent. 

RMS-18

I’ve always been a big fan of the shotguns that were available in the previous games of the series, and Far Cry 6 hasn’t disappointed me in this scenario as well. I have always kept a shotgun in my loadout as they are the perfect weapon for close-range combat. Just one shot and your enemy will be gone for good.

BP

The BP SMG is yet another SMG that we would like to mention on our Best Weapons list. The interesting thing about this weapon is that you can find it during the early stages of the game. I managed to get my hands on it before I even went to the Montero Farm. 

El Florecer

I was looking for a weapon that would help me become Rick from The Walking Dead. While I failed to find a .44 Magnum in the game, I did get my hands on the El Florecer Pistol. The weapon might not be as powerful as the weapon used by Rick, but it is still something that can help you annihilate your enemy. 

Supercharger

Another shotgun that I would like to mention on our best Far Cry 6 weapons list is the Supercharger. Unlike the RMS-18 shotgun that we mentioned above, the Supercharger is a unique weapon and has its own perks. Its damage output is also massive and you can take down your target in a single shot. 

6P13 AutoFar Cry 6 Best Weapons

The 6P13 Auto Pistol In Far Cry 6 is yet another pistol on our list that can serve as a great sidearm. Unlike the previous pistol we mentioned on our list, this one features an auto-mechanism and will let you empty the magazine on your target within a couple of seconds. 

MP7

Yes, I know, this is the third SMG that we’re mentioning on our list. But what some of you don’t realize is that SMGs are quicker than all of the other weapon types and this is something that always leads to eliminating enemies quickly.

Into Orbit

Far Cry 6 is the type of game in which you can go crazy, and a rocket launcher can help you do that. For this purpose, I will suggest the Into Orbit launcher. While there are a couple of other launchers available in the game, this one seems to perform better than all of them.

Compound Bow

If you’ve played the previous installments of the Far Cry series, then you already know how much importance the bow holds. It is something that can help you take down enemies and you can even use it while hunting. The best part is that it does its job without ruining your stealth. 

AJM 9

The AJM 9 is easily one of the best side arms available in the game. Just like the 6P13, this is also an auto pistol that can empty its magazine within seconds. However, keep in mind that this weapon is available to only those who have the Blood Dragon pack.

Kobracon

The Kobracon is yet another weapon that can be acquired by those who have the Blood Dragon pack. It’s easily one of the best snipers available in the game and it can help you take down even the toughest of opponents. The weapon has a cyberpunk look and its reload animation is something that I love.

Crackle and Pop

LMGs are something that can help you take on multiple enemies at once. In fact, they can even destroy vehicles. In Far Cry 6, Crackle and Pop is the best LMG for me because of its massive firepower. It uses blast rounds, the very type that works well against vehicles. 

El Tirano

If someone asks me about the best sniper in Far Cry 6, then I would definitely mention El Tirano. This is because its damage output is better than almost every other sniper available in the game and it can even pierce through armor.

La Varita

The final weapon we would like to mention on our best Fary Cry 6 weapons list is the La Varita. Without a single doubt, this weapon is the best one to use in the game because of many reasons. However, the thing which I personally love about it is its ability to shoot through walls. Furthermore, its damage output is great and you can take down almost every enemy with a single headshot. 

Urushi

Urushi is a specialized and improved variant of AR-C Assault Rifle. However, it’s a 4 Star firearm while the latter one is 2. Its Large Cylindrical Suppressor, Silencer, and Armor Piercing Rounds make it an excellent Stealth weapon that can be used anytime for taking a headshot of your enemies.

El Caballero

The weapon El Caballero is a unique variant of an existing MGL-6 Grenade Launcher. It’s a more efficient and improved version. El Caballero offers better Handling with a little less Stealth. Its primary convenience is its Incendiary Grenades. They can spread the rapid-fire around and make it a blast zone in no time.

Bullseye

Unlike previous versions of this game, Far Cry 6 boasts new options for bows. Yet, the number is still limited. Bullseye enables you to pin down the enemy with a single shot. Form narrowed collection of bows. This one is extremely useful and gives excellent performance. It’s a unique compound bow variant. Bullseye is a two-star weapon, which serves well for mid to long-range during fights.
