Scavland Weapons Guide: Getting Started
Scavland weapons explained: 25+ guns and 300+ attachments, melee and stealth options, and how our weapon coverage is organized as Early Access data lands.
How many weapons does Scavland have?

Scavland’s Early Access arsenal includes more than 25 weapons and over 300 attachments, according to the official Steam page. Combat is deliberately tactical: firearms, melee, and stealth all have a place, and the weapon-suppression system means how you fight matters as much as what you fight with — see the combat and stealth guide for the full picture.
What makes a weapon good?

Two things decide a weapon’s real value in the wasteland:
- Condition: durability degrades with use; repairs and maintenance keep a trusted gun reliable — see the crafting and repair guide.
- Attachments: the official customization system lets you swap stocks, magazines, optics, muzzle devices, and grips to tune a weapon to a role — quiet scavenging, bunker clearing, or open-field fights.
Exact stats, attachment compatibility, and recommended builds will be documented here only after they are verified against the live Early Access build — this wiki does not publish numbers it has not checked.
Where do weapons fit into your run?

Weapons are one leg of the survival loop: loot funds your arsenal, jobs give it purpose, and the map decides where you can safely take it. See the beginner guide for the full loop, the jobs and contracts guide for contract play, and the bunkers guide for where a suppressed build pays off.
