The Best Heavy Gun in The Finals https://playerassist.com/the-best-heavy-gun-in-the-finals/ Wed, 31 Jan 2024 19:06:11 +0000 https://playerassist.com/?p=437311

The Finals is a new multiplayer gaming experience that pits players against each other in intense, high-stakes battles. Set in a destructible virtual arena, players must navigate various challenges, combining skill and teamwork to emerge victorious. In the game, the player can play as either of the three different builds: Light, Medium, and Heavy. Each of these builds has its different abilities and purposes.

The Best Heavy Gun in The Finals

In this guide, we will talk more about the Heavy build and the best gun to use for it. In the high-stakes world of The Finals, choosing the right gun when using a Heavy can be the key to securing victory and leaving a lasting impact. Whether you’re a seasoned competitor or a budding contender, this guide is your ultimate resource for discovering the most potent guns for a Heavy that can turn the tide in your favor during the crucial moments of The Finals. 

The Best Heavy Gun goes to… the Lewis Gun!

The Lewis Gun is a Light Machine Gun type weapon for the Heavy build. The player can use it and shoot on an enemy’s body to deal 25 damage. When hitting an enemy’s head, the damage will deal damage with a 1.5x multiplier. This means that one headshot hit will deal 38 damage. This heavy gun can deal 200 damage per second and has a fire rate of 480 rounds per minute. The Lewis Gun has a magazine size of 47 bullets, and reloading using this weapon lasts 3.5 seconds.

The Lewis Gun is well-rounded but effective for the Heavy build, making it arguably the best in The Finals.

First, the Lewis Gun can deal massive damage, allowing it to defeat enemies quickly and even destroy their shields. This Heavy gun also has an impressively low firing rate. This makes it easier to use when aiming and shooting using its sights. Because of this, the Lewis Gun works great when the player uses it to attack from a slightly long range. The player can also use the weapon in single-fire mode to make it simpler to shoot targets in this range.

Following the last open beta, the Lewis Gun has undergone some changes. This made it more manageable when the player fires the Lewis Gun in full auto mode. This makes this gun a unique, reliable, and sturdy choice. Its well-balanced performance makes it easy to handle and gives it a tactical edge even when used in close quarters. These give the player an unmatched combination of powerful firepower and accurate control.

Honorable Mentions

Choosing which Heavy guns is the best is very hard as they are all very competent and reliable. Even though we think the Lewis Gun is technically the best gun to use when using a heavy weapon, the best gun for the player still depends on the player’s playstyle in the Finals. For that, the player can also use the following Heavy guns if they better fit the player’s playstyle:

  • SA1216

The SA1216 is a semi-automatic shotgun. This Heavy gun can shoot 13 pellets at a time with a high spread in a set pattern. Each shot has a pattern that looks like an ‘x’ with a couple more pellets on top and the bottom. As of update version 1.4.0, each pellet will deal seven damage.

Because of that, if all 13 pellets hit an enemy, it can deal 91 damage per shot. This can deal 341.25 damage per second and a fire rate of 140 rounds per minute. The SA1216 also has a magazine size of 16 bullets; reloading using this weapon lasts 3 seconds.

This Heavy gun’s big magazine capacity and fast firing rate are among its most distinctive characteristics. This allows the player to do much damage over time, especially up close. However, one common downside when using a shotgun with wide and fixed spread is that it narrows its effective range to below medium range. This makes it challenging to deal damage and become effective from medium to longer ranges. Not only that, but the weapon also has quite slow reloading speed.

The Heavy build’s limited moving speed and lack of long-range damage mean mastering this weapon requires the right fight strategies. This means the player may find it hard to run a gun when using this weapon. To become effective with the SA1216, the player has to be smart when positioning in fights and maintain cooperation and collaboration with teammates.

This is the only reason we don’t think the SA1216 is the best Heavy gun, aside from the fact that it only works best at close range. It is only good for players with specific playstyles or experienced players.

Most confrontations in The Finals occur at close quarters, so some players would find it best to carry the SA1216. With it, the player can become a force to be reckoned with—if they can learn how to manage it well.

  • M60

The M60 is another Light Machine Gun weapon for the Heavy build in The Finals. It can deal 22 damage per hit on the body. If this weapon hits an enemy on the head, each shot has a multiplier of 1.5x. This means that one headshot can deal 33 damage. It can deal 230 damage per second and a fire rate of 600 rounds per minute. The M60 has a magazine size of 70 bullets, and reloading using this gun takes 3.5 seconds. This is a dependable gun for Heavy Build because of its rapid firing rate and overall solid effectiveness.

The M60’s maximum ammunition capacity, a whopping 70 rounds, as opposed to the Lewis Gun’s 47, is one significant advantage of this weapon. Its large magazine capacity makes up for its deficiency in handling and slightly bad recoil.

This means that it is slightly challenging to shoot accurately with this weapon. Although this Heavy gun can shoot great damage, its poor handling and recoil make it less effective at longer ranges. It works best in close-quarter battles, especially the ones in enclosed spaces.

This gun’s characteristics are excellent; its sole weakness is its reload speed and handling. Additionally, the player can use this Heavy gun right from the beginning of the game. The player will not have to grind and collect in-game currency to get this gun.

The M60 would’ve been the best Heavy gun in The Finals if not for its recoil and bullet spread. Range is not much of a problem unless shooting from longer ranges is the player’s playstyle. Again, the player will engage in battles in medium to close ranges anyway.

With this Heavy gun, the player can run and gun. However, it may take some practice to get the hang of it. With the right hands, the M60 can prove quite lethal.

Conclusion

The Lewis Gun stands out for Heavy builds, offering a well-rounded and effective performance. With its impressive damage output, manageable recoil, and versatility in various combat scenarios, the Lewis Gun is probably the best choice for players seeking to dominate The Finals.

However, we must acknowledge that personal playstyles and preferences are crucial for the player to win. Because of that, honorable mentions like the SA1216 and M60 provide viable alternatives for players with distinct strategies. Whether you favor the balance of the Lewis Gun or opt for the advantages of the SA1216 or M60, mastering the player’s chosen gun for the Heavy build will undoubtedly elevate their gameplay and position them as a force to be reckoned with in The Finals.

May your shots be accurate and your victories plentiful as you shoot through the challenges of this exhilarating gaming experience!

How To Install Mods in Lethal Company

How To Get Past the Museum Crash in Coral Island https://playerassist.com/get-past-museum-crash-coral-island/ Wed, 06 Dec 2023 18:15:49 +0000 https://playerassist.com/?p=433364

Learn how to get past the Museum Crash in Coral Island!

How To Get Past the Museum Crash in Coral Island

Stairway Games’ Coral Island has been getting a lot of positive buzz ever since it launched, and many fans have been enjoying this very intricate farm simulator. Not only do they get to plant crops and harvest all kinds of fruits and vegetables, but they can also roam around the island, doing activities like mining and scuba diving; they can also form relationships with several of the attractive NPCs in the game.

Like every new game released nowadays, though, some Coral Island players have found some bugs that need fixing, and they can get as severe as having the game crash multiple times on a player.

Luckily, there are some fixes that players can do to get around the bugs and continue building their Coral Island utopias.

The Museum Crash Coral Island Bug

Though there are multiple points in the game where players have reported bugs, this Museum crash bug has become prominent for many players, and some have reported up to 4 crashes with multiple attempts.

In the game, the Museum is located to the left of the Community Center, and players can choose to donate all kinds of items to it, including artifacts, gems, insects, and fish they find on their adventures.

Donating to the Museum will help increase the rank of the town, and that’s the main incentive for the players to do that.

The problem is that multiple players have reported that they would donate to the Museum, which would result in the game crashing, and they would lose all their progress since the last saved game.

Has the Bug Been Addressed?

The good news for Coral Island players is that the developers know the Museum bug and have addressed it with a patch. One developer post on Reddit says:


Hi everyone. Thank you so much for your patience during this process. I’m happy to share that we have fixed the museum crash and will be included in our future releases! The timing may vary depending on the platform, stay tuned for the update!

Looking at the post, though, you’ll notice that many players still report that they are still experiencing the bug on Xbox days after it was said to have been fixed. Even if that is the case, there are some workarounds that other players have suggested online that could save you from a game crash.

What Other Fixes Can You Do?

Despite Stairway Games saying they’ve already addressed the crash, some players are still reporting on it—specifically on the Xbox Series X|S. Some recommended fixes for this problem include:

Updating to the Latest Version of Coral Island – Sometimes, players can experience the bug because they haven’t been able to update their version to the one that contains the fix. Usually, updates will be automatically prompted by the game, but if that isn’t the case, you can go to Profile, then Options, and from that point, you should see an option that will allow you to Upgrade the game to its latest version.

Check if the Console Itself Isn’t Faulty – Sometimes the problem isn’t the game itself, but the actual console. With Coral Island being such a huge game, some platforms won’t be able to manage it; make sure that your console has all the minimum specs required to run Coral Island. If you’ve already checked that, troubleshoot your device and make sure everything is upgraded to the latest version.

Reinstall the Game – If all else fails, a fix that is always suggested is uninstalling and reinstalling the game on your console. Sure, the method is tedious, but at least this way, you can address all of the problems you can’t detect and have a fresh start with the game. Of course, there is also an option to keep your save files, so back those up before a complete uninstall/reinstall.

If you plan on getting a DLC for My Time at Sandrock, check out our breakdown of the game’s available downloadable content.

The Best DLC for My Time at Sandrock

My Time at Sandrock was fully released in November after a year and a half of early access. The sequel to Pathea’s My Time at Portia gained popularity for its engaging gameplay mechanics, gripping story featuring a diverse cast of characters, and unique desert setting that takes place years after an apocalyptic event.

In this game, you can also modify your workshop and character, another factor contributing to the game’s success. Pathea released several DLCs for My Time at Sandrock that mostly focus on these aspects. But which of these DLCs can fully maximize your experience in the game?

Every DLC Available for My Time at Sandrock

There are currently seven downloadable add-ons available for My Time at Sandrock. Most cosmetic DLCs do not affect the gameplay but allow you to customize your builder or home. Below, we’ve listed all the key features for each downloadable content:

My Time at Sandrock – Original Soundtrack

The first DLC on the list came out during the game’s early access version. As the name indicates, you can get the official soundtrack or musical score, including 59 tracks you can download and listen to outside the gaming environment. 

Whether you’re a collector, a big fan of My Time at Sandrock, or just appreciate its music, this is a great addition to your DLC collection as it lets you enjoy the game’s soundtrack.

Alienware Gift

This DLC became available on the same day the game got a full release. Pathea’s partnership with Dell Alienware brought players a T-shirt with the Alienware logo for builders to wear. The best thing about this DLC is that it’s completely free! So get your builder a free Alienware Tee now if you haven’t had the chance to claim it yet.

Pet Pack – Lil Gecko

Pet Pack – Lil Gecko lets you instantly adopt a loveable little lizard named Gecko. You can pet it, give it gifts, and even ask it to gather resources for you. If you aim to take home all the adorable domestic pets you see in Sandrock, you might not want to pass up on this DLC.

Builder’s Beach and Ball Clothing Pack

This content pack features a beach and ball attire with four different swatches. Builder’s Beach and Ball is a perfect add-on if you like some variety in your everyday outfit or if you’d like appropriate clothing for certain in-game events. Unfortunately, like all the DLCs for the game, this content pack is not currently available in multiplayer mode, which can be a huge letdown for those who enjoy gaming with their friends.

If you like crafting objects and furniture and decorating your home with them, this DLC is just what you need. This pack features ten deluxe oriental-style furniture. The only downside to these furniture packs is you can only get one piece of each type of furniture, meaning these items can’t be duplicated.

Cute Critter Furniture Pack

This DLC adds ten pieces of animal-themed items mostly suitable for a house with children and adopted pets. The cute Critter Furniture Pack might be up your alley if you like collecting adorable-looking objects in the game with assorted colors.

Interior Decorator Pack

The Interior Decorator Pack features four roof tiles, eight wallpapers, and eight-floor tiles for home construction. It’s a must-have DLC if you often spend hours and invest Gols on designing and renovating your workshop.

Which DLC Should You Pick?

If you can only choose one DLC right now, consider the pack that has a significant impact on your gameplay and garnered the highest ratings from the players, and that is Pet Pack – Lil Gecko! Owning an adorable lizard you can interact with in your home will complete your cozy Sandrock experience.

However, go for the interior decorator and furniture packs if building and beautifying houses is your ultimate passion. Your personal preference still plays an important role in your decision. So go ahead and purchase the DLC you feel like you would enjoy the most!

Find out if you should purchase Cities: Skylines 2 Ultimate Edition in this article.

Should You Purchase the Ultimate Edition of Cities: Skylines 2? - Answered

Cities: Skylines 2 is a popular urban management sim and city builder game created by Colossal Order and Paradox Interactive. And like most modern titles with a huge fan following, they released an Ultimate Edition of Cities: Skylines 2, which provides significant features that extend the gameplay. However, it is worth twice as much as the standard version.

Fans of the series might go ahead and buy the pricier version for additional content. But for players wondering if Cities: Skylines 2 Ultimate Edition is truly value for money, you can check out all the extra features this version offers below.

Cities: Skylines 2 Ultimate Edition Features

The standard edition of Cities: Skylines 2 contains content that gives players hundreds of hours of gameplay. Purchasing the Ultimate Edition will immerse you in creating your metropolis and managing the intricacies of your people and economy.

Here are all the features the Ultimate Edition of Cities: Skylines 2 provides:

San Francisco Set – A pack that adds a San Francisco map with some new assets, including muscle car models, a muscle car garage, a new police car model, and the Golden Gate Bridge.

Beach Properties Asset Pack – A pack that adds various items you can use to create lavish beach housings for your city.

Content Creator Packs (2) – Two asset packs (Urban Promenades and Modern Architecture) created by Cities: Skylines 1 modders that add 60 items you can use to spruce up your metropolis.

Bridges & Ports Expansion Pack – An asset pack that gives you tools to create structures like lighthouses, draw bridges, and a port city. Also included in this pack are 100 new assets and the Marine Industries used to improve your waterfront landscapes and help support your city’s economy.

Radio Stations (3) – Adds three radio stations, each playing 60 minutes of music and having a different radio host.

Cities: Skylines 2 promises to give city builder fans a relaxing city management simulator with extensive content that you can ease into for hours on end. However, it had a rocky launch upon its release on October 24.

The sequel to Cities: Skylines 1 was criticized for having poor performance and lacking certain gameplay aspects. Since then, several hotfixes have been released to sort out these issues. Colossal Order continuously strives to give players the best gaming experience, but Cities: Skylines 2 is still far from surpassing its predecessor in terms of quality and stability.

So, should you buy the pricier edition of Cities: Skylines 2 despite its technical shortcomings?

The answer is yes if you are a big fan of the Cities: Skylines series. This will give the developers additional revenue that will further help them enhance their game and release more free content. If the features we’ve laid out above have piqued your interest, you might want to give this version a go.

Otherwise, sticking to the standard version of the Ultimate Edition’s features does not justify the expensive purchase. Overall, the decision hinges on the player’s preference and enthusiasm for the game.

Can you play Slender: The Arrival in multiplayer mode?

Does Slender: The Arrival Have Multiplayer? - Answered

For the game’s 10th Anniversary, Slender: The Arrival received multiple updates, including updated visuals and a new chapter focusing on one of Slender Man’s characters. While the updated visuals and new content are something to be excited about, there is one feature that Slender Man fans have wished to have in the game for a long time – a multiplayer mode that will allow them to play the game with their friends online.

So, does Slender: The Arrival have multiplayer? Read on to find out.

Does Slender: The Arrival Have Multiplayer?

Slender: The Arrival does not have multiplayer capability right now. Still, the feature has been officially confirmed and added to the game’s 2024 Roadmap.

You can play on your own as Lauren as you try to save her friend Kate from an ominous figure. But don’t worry – help is on its way. Soon, you can team up with your friends and work together to escape and survive against Slender Man.

Is Slender: The Arrival cross-platform?

Alongside the planned addition of a multiplayer mode, Slender: The Arrival is also set to receive a Cross-Platform Mod Kit that allows players to create their own custom Slender Man scenarios. The same scenarios can be shared across various gaming platforms, and players can also leverage the brand-new multiplayer mode to create online scenarios.

While Slender: The Arrival is arguably best played as a classic single-player first-person thriller, it can be repetitive. Having the option to play with friends and experiment with new custom scenarios will help keep the game feeling fresh and make subsequent replays more exciting.

Final Thoughts

Slender: The Arrival does not have multiplayer as of now. Still, the feature will arrive sometime in 2024, alongside a neat new cross-platform mod kit. This will allow you and other players to create custom scenarios and share them with other players online. You can keep yourself busy by playing single-player mode and unlocking secret levels that feature alternate game modes.

Farming legendary weapons in Borderlands 3 can be a bit of a grind, so knowing when and where to farm them will make your life much easier.

When to Farm Legendary Weapons in Borderlands 3

There are a ton of legendary weapons, artifacts, shields, grenade mods, and class mods that players can choose from and farm in Borderlands 3. These legendary items can be game-changing for players who obtain them, so it’s no surprise that many want to farm for legendaries as early as possible.

However, farming for legendary items is easier said than done. Some of these can be hard to find and even harder to acquire. Once you get a legendary weapon, it will make everything a little bit easier due to its strength and power.

Luckily, some veteran players have discovered which areas are easy and effective in farming these coveted legendary weapons. This is most useful for those who are having trouble getting the weapon they’ve always wanted. Certain areas in the game yield a lot more loot that players can sell or store at the Sanctuary.

There is a certain debate about whether farming legendary weapons early in Borderlands 3 is a good idea. Many veteran players often advise newbies to postpone farming them until they are maxed out, while some say otherwise.

As you continue to play the game and level up, you will most likely replace your current weapons with better ones as soon as you get them—legendary weapons are no exception.

However, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you should completely abandon the thought of farming them during the early stages of your playthrough. What most players don’t realize is that there are a few legendary weapons that you can obtain early. Some of them are even hidden in the very beginning.

If you have all the time in the world, farming is not harmed for them early in the game. However, should you choose not to farm legendaries early, you can still obtain a couple by running Mayhem mode or completing the main story.

Legendary Weapons You Can Get Early in Borderlands 3

A couple of legendary weapons in the game are obtainable at an early level. We’ve listed some of the best early-game legendaries you can utilize well, even if you’re just starting in Borderlands 3.

1. Bankrolled Predatory Lending

This weapon is a unique legendary submachine gun you can easily obtain by killing the mini-boss, Lavender Crawly, in The Droughts area on Pandora. The flavor text “bullets are cheap, but not that cheap” is written on the weapon.

Although using money as ammo may seem impractical, high-level cash drops can provide more rounds than necessary, leading to an unlimited ammo supply for your character. This is essential during raid fights and other instances where you might run out of ammo. Aside from that, this weapon has better stats than most SMGs of purple-rarity, making it one of the most versatile weapons in the game.

2. Stabby Broosin SkekSil

This weapon is a legendary pistol that, even though it has a bottomless magazine, can overheat occasionally and eventually break. This pistol is only obtained by killing the mini-boss, Skrakk, located in Ascension Bluff on Pandora.

3. EMP

The EMP is a grenade mod dropped by Baron Noggin, a respawnable mini-boss, in Meridian Metroplex. Although this legendary grenade mod is not the strongest in taking out enemies, it is mostly used in depleting the shields of powerful enemies such as Guardians. Alternatively, if you want to rapidly deplete your shield, throw this Grenade mod at your feet without risking self-crippling.

4. Redundant Phebert

This legendary shotgun is only obtained by killing the respawnable mini-boss, Wick, in Lectra City on Promethea. As its flavor text says, “faster than all estimates,” its bullets reach far and travel almost instantaneously toward the enemy. Although it has a reduced pellet count than most shotguns in the game, it is still a pretty solid weapon overall.

5. One Pump Chump

This unique legendary weapon is a shotgun that can be obtained from any source but has a higher drop rate from defeating the One Punch boss in Lectra City on Promethea. This shotgun is unique as it reloads after every shot and has a 1.50% chance not to consume the current ammo.

Tears of the Kingdom: How To Fuse Arrows https://playerassist.com/tears-of-the-kingdom-how-to-fuse-arrows/ Tue, 19 Sep 2023 16:01:20 +0000 https://playerassist.com/?p=427491

In the beautiful kingdom of Hyrule, where legends and adventures abound, archery has always played a crucial role. In the latest installment of the iconic Legend of Zelda series, Tears of the Kingdom, players are presented with a thrilling new mechanic that takes archery to a whole new level: arrow fusion. Link can attach different items to his normal arrows in Tears of the Kingdom.

Tears of the Kingdom: How To Fuse Arrows

With that, each arrow can have many different effects and applications. In this guide, we will walk you through how to fuse arrows in Tears of the Kingdom. We will explore the intricacies of arrow fusion and unravel the mysteries of this mechanic.

This guide will empower you to harness its full potential in your quest to save Hyrule once again. Get ready to fuse arrows and unlock a world of limitless possibilities in the Tear of the Kingdom!

Arrows

Link may inflict damage to foes over large distances through the use of Arrows. The damage inflicted on the enemy with this method is determined based on the Bow used to shoot it rather than the Arrow itself.

Link must search the overworld for Arrows to obtain them. Link can obtain Arrows by purchasing them with Rupees, discovering them within chests, collecting them from slain opponents’ drops, and picking them up from broken crates and barrels‘ drops. 

Now, let’s talk about how to get a lot of them in a short period of time. The following are common methods to farm arrows:

1. Buying Arrows

Buying Arrows is one of the quickest methods to obtain them. Arrows can be purchased in a variety of locations. These include General Stores in certain settlements, Beedle in the Stables, and even traveling merchants located, well, traveling on roadways.

However, the sole prerequisite for this strategy is Rupees. The more Rupees Link possesses, the more Arrows he can obtain.

This is the suggested strategy for fast farming Arrows via purchasing them:

  1. First, proceed to Lookout Landing, located immediately south of Hyrule Castle.
  2. Then, head to the General Store on the eastern side of Lookout Landing.
  3. Next, buy as many Arrows as you desire or as many as they have. There are five bundles of five Arrows in this General Store. Link can purchase a pack of five Arrows for 20 Rupees. Buying all five bundles, which equals 25 Arrows, will cost you 100 Rupees.
  4. When they’re out of stock, go to the center of Lookout Landing and go to their Emergency Shelter.
  5. Press the A button next to the bed to sleep or wait on the lit cooking pot inside the Emergency Shelter. Select sleep or wait till dawn at the prompt.
  6. Then, once the game loads back, press the – button to access the Map. To fast travel to the Lookout Landing Skyview Tower, hover on it, hit the A button, and then confirm on the prompt.
  7. Once the game loads back, return to this area’s General Store, and Link will find that the Arrows have now been completely restocked. If this does not work, simply sleep or wait until the next morning in the Emergency Shelter again. Then Link can buy as many Arrows as you like or as many as they have available.
  8. Finally, Link may repeat steps 4 through 7 to obtain all the Arrows he desires!

2. Enemy Archers

Hunting enemy groups and camps with archers on them is another dependable way to farm Arrows. Once defeated, these enemy archers typically leave a few singles or bundles of arrows. There is, however, a way to acquire more arrows from them than that.

All Link has to do for this method is grab the Arrows that the enemy archers shoot. These opposing archers appear to have an infinite supply of arrows to shoot.

Link must perform the following to obtain Arrows via this method:

  1. When encountering a group or a camp of monsters, eliminate any enemy not carrying or using bows and arrows. This is to get rid of the inconvenience while farming Arrows.
  2. Next, allow the enemy archers to continue shooting Arrows at Link. Avoid the shot Arrows via running and sprinting about. If Link is hit, there will be no arrow to pick up.
  3. Afterward, gather all of the shot Arrows from the ground.
  4. Once you’ve collected all of the Arrows you want, defeat the enemy archer so that it drops the singles or bundles of Arrows.
  5. Next, locate another monster group or camp to repeat the process and obtain additional Arrows!

It’s worth noting that after a while of scooping up the opposing archer’s shot Arrows, sometimes they stop appearing on the ground once the Arrow misses. This implies that the opposing archer will continue to shoot Link, but Link will be unable to find an Arrow on the ground if it misses.

In our experience, there is no set quantity of Arrows that Link must collect before they cease appearing. They differ from one enemy to the next. With that in mind, Link can collect as many shot Arrows as the player desires or until they stop appearing.

The Fuse Ability

Link must first acquire the Fuse ability before he may fuse items to arrows. This ability allows Link to combine an object with arrows and his equipped weapon or shield. This ability enables Link to build different weapons, shields, and arrows with varying effects.

Link has to visit the In-isa Shrine, with the title “The Ability to Combine,” to obtain the Fuse ability. This is Link’s second encounter with a Shrine in the game. The In-isa Shrine is on a mountain beside a huge lake northwest of the Room of Awakening. Link can discover the Shrine in the Great Sky Island’s southwestern corner. Link will find the Shrine at the following coordinates: 0027, -1503, 1408.

How to Fuse Arrows

Once Link has Arrows and the item you want, Link can now fuse them with the Fuse ability! To do that, Link must do the following:

  1. To begin, hold down the ZR button to aim and ready Link’s Bow and Arrow.
  2. Hold the up directional button to see what items Link can fuse to his readied arrow. To move between the items, use the right stick.
  3. After navigating to an item, release the up-directional button to return to the game.
  4. Finally, the item will fuse to the arrow!

Link may create many arrows with distinct effects by fusing materials into arrows. Link can create the following types of Arrows with specific items and the Fuse ability:

Fire Arrow

Link can create Fire Arrows, which burn foes and other explosive objects. To make Fire Arrows, Link must use the Fuse ability to fuse a Fire Fruit, a Red Chuchu Jelly, or a Ruby onto an Arrow. 

Even so, it is not recommended to attach Rubies. This is because they are much more difficult to get and are more valuable than Fire Fruit or Red Chuchu Jelly.

The Fuse Attack Power of Fire Fruits, Red Chuchu Jellies, and Rubies are only 1.

Water Arrow

Link may utilize Water Arrows to clear the goop across Hyrule. Link must fuse a Splash Fruit, a Chuchu Jelly, or an Opal to an arrow to create Water Arrows.

Splash Fruits or Blue Chuchu Jelly are suggested among these goods. This is because Opals are highly valuable and difficult to come by, so using them to produce Water Arrows would be a waste.

The Fuse Attack Power of Splash Fruits, normal Chuchu Jellies, and Opals are only 1.

Ice Arrow

Link can use Ice Arrows to literally freeze an adversary. Link must attach an Ice Fruit, a White Chuchu Jelly, or a Sapphire to make one.

Utilizing a Sapphire to produce Ice Arrows is not recommended because this item is difficult to come by and highly precious. However, if you want to, the possibility to employ them for creating Ice Arrows remains.

The Fuse Attack Power of Ice Fruits, White Chuchu Jellies, and Sapphires are 1.

Electric Arrow

To shock enemies, Link may shoot Electric Arrows at them. When shot in water, these Electric Arrows may generate a dome of electricity. Electric Arrows are also handy while defeating large enemies. Link must fuse a Shock Fruit, a Yellow Chuchu Jelly, or a Topaz to arrows to make Electric Arrows.

Electric Arrows should be made with a Shock Fruit or a Yellow Chuchu Jelly like the other elemental arrows. This is because Topaz is a rare and valuable item that would be a waste if utilized to create a single Electric Arrow.

Topazes, Shock Fruits, and Yellow Chuchu Jellies have the same Fuse Attack Power of 1.

Bomb Arrow

Link may fire Bomb Arrows, which explode when they collide with an adversary or a surface. Certain structures, like breakable rock walls, may get destroyed using this type of arrow. Link must fuse a Bomb Flower to an arrow to create one.

Bomb Flowers have a 1 Fuse Attack Power as well.

Light Arrow

Link can utilize Light Arrows to illuminate dark areas. The Light Arrows will cling to the surface they hit and emit light when it does. Link must use the Fuse ability to fuse a Brightbloom Seed to an arrow to make a Light Arrow. 

The intensity of the light emitted is determined by whether an ordinary or large Brightbloom Seed is used.

Homing Arrows

Link may fire Homing Arrows, which will continue to follow an enemy until it clashes. With this type of Arrow, Link can easily hit fast-moving opponents. Link must fuse a Keese, Fire Keese, Electric Keese, Ice Keese, Aerocuda, or Octorok Eyeball to an arrow to create a Homing Arrow.

It’s also worth noting that using an elemental Keese Eyeball will give you the element’s effect. Attaching an Ice Keese Eyeball to an arrow, for example, results in a Homing Ice Arrow. As a result, it will pursue an enemy and freeze it upon hitting.

Regular Keese Eyeballs have 1 Fuse Attack Power, Octorok Eyeballs have a 3 Fuse Attack Power, Aerocuda Eyeballs have 4 Fuse Attack Power, Ice Keese Eyeballs have 4 Fuse Attack Power, Electric Keese Eyeballs have 6 Fuse Attack Power, and Fire Keese Eyeballs have 8 Fuse Attack Power.

Flash Arrows

Link may create Flash Arrows, which have the same impact as a flashbang. Link can momentarily blind and disorient foes through this type of arrow. This will allow Link to get near and attack them faster. Link should use the Fuse ability to attach a Dazzlefruit to an arrow to make a Flash Arrow.

Dazzlefruits has only 1 for its Fuse Attack Power.

Smoke Bomb Arrow

Link can make a Smoke Bomb Arrow, which emits a cloud of smoke similar to a smoke bomb. This type of arrow will obscure your adversaries’ view. Link must fuse a Puffshroom to an arrow to create a Smoke Bomb Arrow.

Puffshrooms possess a Fuse Attack Power of 1.

Confuse Arrow

Link can launch Confuse Arrows, which erupt into a cloud of spores that confuse foes. When foes become confused, they target other enemies rather than Link. To make a Confuse Arrow, Link must fuse a Muddle Bud to an arrow.

Muddle Buds only have a Fuse Attack Power of 1.

Bee Arrow

Link may use Bee Arrows to conjure a swarm of bees that attack foes. Link must fuse a Courser Bee Honey to an arrow to create a Bee Arrow.

The Fuse Attack Power of Courser Bee Honeys is only 1.

Sniper Arrow

Link may create Sniper Arrows, arrows that shoot straight out rather than in an arc. This type of arrow flies farther than conventional arrows. Link must fuse a Keese Wing, Fire Keese Wing, Ice Keese Wing, Electric Keese Wing, Aerocuda Wing, Gibdo Wing, Gleeok Wing, or a Molduga Fin to an arrow to create a Sniper Arrow.

The Fuse Attack Power of Regular Keese Wings is only 1, the Fuse Attack Power of Fire, Ice, and Electric Keese Wings are 2, the Fuse Attack Power of Aerocuda Wings are 4, the Fuse Attack Power of Gibdo Wings are 8,  the Fuse Attack Power of Molduga Fins are 12, and the Fuse Attack Power of Gleeok Wings are 24.

It is also worth noting that fusing elemental Keese Wings to arrows will add to the element’s effect. For example, fusing an Electric Keese Wing with an arrow results in an Electric Sniper Arrow. This implies the arrow will fly farther than a conventional arrow and shock foes when it hits them.

Wind Arrow

Link may make Wind Arrows, which blow away foes in its path. Link must use the Fuse ability to fuse a Korok Frond to an arrow to create a Wind Arrow.

Fuse Attack Power of Korok Fronds is 1.

Conclusion

Mastering the art of fusing arrows in Tears of the Kingdom is a pivotal skill that will greatly enhance Link’s capabilities on his heroic quest. By harnessing the power of these fused arrows, players can turn the tide of battle, solve puzzles, and conquer the formidable challenges that lie ahead. The fusion mechanic offers the game a rich layer of depth, inviting players to experiment and adapt their strategies.

As Link’s journey unfolds, remember that the power to fuse arrows is not just a gameplay mechanic but a testament to Hyrule’s ever-evolving and immersive world, where adventure and innovation go hand in hand. So, take aim, experiment, and prepare to unleash the full potential of your arrows in this captivating installment of the beloved Zelda series.
