In Dead Sails, hand-to-hand combat won't get you far. To defeat mobs and secure the most valuable loot, you need to be armed and ready. The developers have kept the number of weapons manageable, each serving a unique purpose. Let's explore the weapons in Dead Sails, how they work, and where to find them:

NameWhere to get itInfo
ShotgunCosts 30 Dabloons at the Shop Store in any safe zoneAbsolutely devastating at close range; it’s an excellent weapon for night-time mob rushes.
Shotgun AmmoAvailable for 25 Dabloons at the Shop Store or a special boatComes in batches of 12 rounds, so use them wisely.
RevolverCosts 20 Dabloons or $35 (all $ symbols refer to in-game money)Has only 4 bullets per barrel, defying conventional gun design.
Revolver Ammo15 Dabloons or $15 at any Shop Store in a townOnly 4 bullets, so make every shot count.
RifleYou can buy it at the Shop Store for $75 or 25 DabloonsVersatile for sniping enemies at long range and effective at mid-range.
Rifle AmmoCosts 25 Dabloons or $35 in-game moneyAmmo refill for your rifle, more generous than revolver ammo.
GrenadeCosts 15 Dabloons at the Shop StoreBest used to clear out barns, garages, and houses; watch mobs scatter when you throw one.
Dynamite15 Dabloons at the Shop Store or roll a Miner class to get itPowerful AoE explosive for removing obstacles and dealing massive damage.
TurretVaries in cost depending on the type, found at every Shop storeStatic machine gun for your boat, requires a player to operate and has a high RPM.

Armor in Dead Sails

While the armor section of Dead Sails could be more extensive, the simplicity of the game is part of its charm. There are only two types of armor available, but they can significantly enhance your survival:

NameWhere to get itInfo
ChestplateCosts 75 Dabloons at the Shop StoreReduces damage from enemies but won't prevent outright death.
HelmetCosts 75 Dabloons at the Shop StoreDecreases overall damage sustained; combined with chestplate, very useful.

Full List of Boats in Dead Sails

Boats in Dead Sails are more than just transportation; they're essentially oversized inventory bags. With a team, you can shuttle loot back and forth, selling it later for a good amount of money. While there's no difference in speed or size, the aesthetics are unique:

Shark Boat150 Dabloons in the starting lobbyUnfortunately, it doesn't play "Baby Shark" when you start the engine.
Bling Boat150 Dabloons in the starting lobbyFor those who want to feel like 50 Cent in 2005, all about that bling.

If you need more space for your team or extra loot, consider getting a raft.
