Best Early Game Weapons and Armor in Flintlock
Best Melee Weapon
The Harbinger’s Axe is the top choice for a Melee Weapon in Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn. This fiery weapon inflicts burn stacks on enemies, and its charge attack triggers a powerful explosion. What sets it apart is that it doesn’t need Reputation to upgrade, requiring only Wood and Sulfur. This allows you to focus more on developing your skill tree.
Best Early Pistols
Nor’s Pistol, the first weapon you acquire, remains a reliable choice throughout the entire game. While other pistols like the Sunderer’s Pistol are useful, they lack the consistency, damage, and speed of Nor’s Pistol. With enough ammo to help you stagger bosses and tough enemies, Nor’s Pistol is fast and effective, even if your parry timing is off.
Best Early Armors
The Sunderer’s Armor Set stands out as the best early Armor Set in Flintlock. Acquire this armor after defeating the Revenant boss and heading to the Mireshard area on the map. By defeating the boss in that location, you can obtain the second piece of the Sunderer’s Armor set. This set bonus enhances your dashes, providing more i-frames and allowing you to dash farther with a cool effect. Moreover, it looks aesthetically pleasing. As you progress, consider switching to a different armor set for additional damage bonuses.
