Overview[]
Tier 6 sees the usage of new crafting parts! Gone is the duct tape and cloth scrap of the starting tiers and here comes new parts to collect and use! The weapons certainly need the better parts, as they're getting more outlandish! The Bottle on a Stick is one of the exceptions, as is the Handyman, since they're both clearly make shift weapons still, but thankfully they're the only two here. The Offroad could be put into the same category, as it's just a metal location sign with some barbed wire wrapped around it, but it's more deadly looking than the other two! The Reinforced Concrete Hammer is just your normal concrete hammer with some metal strips over it to keep it more secure, while the Tea Pain and Sewing Iron are the more outlandish weapons of the tier. The Tea Pain is a metal tea pot with some jagged pieces of metal stuck underneath it, while the Sewing Irons are great, heavy clothes irons with jagged metal attached to them and gloves used to pick them up!
The firearms are just getting better as we go up the tiers, for all you firearm enthusiasts! The Duct Tape Special is just a regular pistol with some duct tape wrapped around the slide while the Patched Shotgun is pretty much the same. The Reinforced Rifle is, while still not a full, proper rifle, a sight better than the Brass Rifle you got all the way down at Tier 2. In fact, the Reinforced Rifle is just the Brass Rifle with a scope and knife tapped to the front as a bayonet!
