Island 359™ Equipment Guide
Firearms
Stiletto: Sell Price: 1,000 MC Capacity: 15 Rounds
The default pistol you get at the beginning of every loot drop mission, in early loot drops, and sometimes found as random loot. Decently powerful with a large clip, with plentiful ammunition.
Brock: Sell Price: 2,500 MC Capacity: 20 Rounds
Usually, the next pistol to appear in loot drops after the Stiletto, and occasionally found randomly. Fully automatic, but very inaccurate, ammo hungry, and weak in my experience. Good gun if the dinos are very close.
Magnus: Sell Price: 1,700 MC Capacity: 6 Bullets
Classic magnum pistol. Appears in later loot drops, as random loot, and is available for purchase at the mercenary store. Great damage and accuracy are offset slightly by its small capacity.
Falcon: Sell Price: 1,750 MC Capacity: 7 Rounds
Heavy pistol that appears in later loot drops, and sometimes found as random loot. Very powerful handgun, but sports a relatively small clip and is very loud. Ammo is also pretty scarce.
Izu: Sell Price: 3,500 MC Capacity: 25 Rounds
Sub-machine gun. Found in later loot drops and maybe as random loot, though I’ve never seen it in the wild. Pretty much a straight upgrade from the brock in terms of damage, ammo capacity, and accuracy. Chews through ammo quickly.
AKX: Sell Price: 5,000 MC Capactiy: 30 Rounds
Assault weapon found in late-game loot drops, though I haven’t survived long enough to see it outside the Mercenary store where it’s also sold. Full auto, good damage, and decent accuracy make for a powerful weapon if a little expensive to keep loaded.
The Bow: Sell Price: 1,000 MC Capacity: 1 Arrow (Duh..)
Not exactly a firearm, but more at home in this section than any other. Often found in loot drops and in all Big Hunts. Infinite arrows, practically silent, and a potential one-shot kill to unaware raptors. Formidable weapon in the right hands.
Melee Weapons
Combat Knife: Sell Price: 10 MC
Your basic knife found at the beginning of every level. Very short reach and decent damage. Wouldn’t recommend fighting anything but Compies with this one.
Latin Machete: Sell Price: 250 MC Purchase Price: 3,000 MC
Basic machete for sale at the mercenary store. One of the melee weapons with better reach, sporting a long, flat blade and good damage against compies and raptors.
Panga Machete: Sell Price: 500 MC Purchase Price: 10,000 MC
More advanced machete for sale at the mercenary store. Has a short blade than its Latin counterpart, but is stronger, more durable, and has a wicket curve on the end.
Baseball Bat: Sell Price: 75 MC
Wooden baseball bat usually found in hunter towers and as random loot. Good length and damage for clubbing dinosaurs and sending compies flying. Breaks very quickly against larger dinos.
Golf Club: Sell Price: 150 MC
A golf driver. The longest melee weapon in the game, but is set back by low damage and durability, losing its one-shot killing power on harder difficulty and above unless you hit them just right. Still a fun tool against a pack of compies.
Axe: Sell Price: 100 MC
A long yellow axe with a sharp grey head. More of a club than a blade in my experience, launching compies away and downing raptors with its high damage and good durability. Still prone to breaking if you wail on the bigger dinos enough.
Crowbar: Sell Price: 125 MC
Curved metal crowbar. Effective at batting around compies and raptors with good damage and high durability. Fairly short range.
Monkey Wrench: Sell Price: 90 MC
Solid metal wrench. Very short range but still good at striking down compies.
Pan and Deluxe Pan: Sell Price: 150 MC
Not strictly a melee weapon as you have to hold the grip button to wield them, but i’m including them anyway for fun. The basic pan has very low damage and poor range, and the deluxe pan actually bends around dino’s heads. Users beware.
Attachments
Reflex Sight: Sell Price: 350 MC
Red reflex sight that attaches to any firearm. Perhaps I’m using it wrong, but I can almost never land shots reliably using this thing. Rely on the laser sight for accurate shot placement.
Silencer: Sell Price: 750 MC
Silencer that masks the sound of your shot to a certain distance. A must-have to avoid attracting unwanted attention during the hunt.
Laser Sight: Sell Price: 500 MC
A small device that emits a laser from under your gun barrel. Absolutely essential to have on all your guns, as it makes shooting over long distances and hitting weak spots on dinos much easier.
Flashlight: Sell Price: 250 MC
Under-barrel flashlight. Useful if your loot drop is running long and night sets in. The flashlight and the laser sight can’t be used at the same time, so take this into consideration.
Maglight: Sell Price: 100 MC
Not an attachment, but still utilitarian. Held in either hand and emits a bright light. Useful to have in your pack if night falls.
