tiny tina’s wonderlands weapons: Danger lurks around every corner, so take heed, noble warrior, and arm yourself with a big ol‘ boomstick. Spellcasting and melee combat is all well and good, but when your back’s against the wall, you can always count on guns. Shooting and looting are the essences of Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, so it’s crucial that you get to know the high-powered weaponry you’ll be working with.
There are millions of different guns to loot across the Wonderlands, as each one is randomly assembled from a huge assortment of parts and components with their own properties. But they all belong to one of six basic categories, corresponding to the six types of ammo found across the environments. Here’s what you’ll see in your ever-growing arsenal:
PISTOLS
If you’ve got a good aim and a steady hand, Pistols can take you far. These trusty sidearms are great for practicing clutch headshots and picking off rank-and-file targets from close- to mid-range.
SMGS
Pepper nearby attackers with a barrage of hot lead using SMGs (Submachine Guns, if you fancy) and their high rate of fire. Eliminating tougher enemies will quickly chew through your ammo supply, so try to make every bullet count.
ASSAULT RIFLES
Whittle the opposition down using the solid, sustained damage of Assault Rifles. These versatile tools of destruction are effective at just about any range, provided you keep an eye on how many bullets are left in your magazine.
SHOTGUNS
If you like your fights up close and personal, Shotguns are ideal for blasting nearby baddies. Their wide bullet spread makes them less effective from a distance, but they pack one hell of a punch in close quarters.
SNIPER RIFLES
Eliminate key targets before they even see you coming with Sniper Rifles, every long-range hunter’s weapon of choice. Granted, zoomed-in scope shots aren’t ideal when a charging skeleton is swinging a sword right in your face.
HEAVY WEAPONS
Make quick work of enemy hordes with the powerful splash damage of Heavy Weapons. Just make sure you don’t miss the few shots you get because reloading is going to take a while.
As you grow stronger during your journey, you’ll unlock three additional weapon slots, turning your Fatemaker into a walking arsenal. Some guns will have added elemental damage types that’ll further enhance their effectiveness or alternate firing modes that expand their capabilities. A gun’s rarity is a good indicator of how far it’ll take you in a fight, with precious Legendary guns having the best damage, stat buffs, and combat effects.
It’s generally a good idea to carry a variety of guns in order to balance your supplies of the six ammo types. Nothing worse’s than hearing the click of an empty magazine during the heat of battle, only to realize you’re rolling with four SMGs and have exhausted all your ammo.
