Weapons Guide

Complete breakdown of all weapons in Blind Shot. Learn about damage, range, costs, and which weapons work best for different strategies.

Pistol (Starting Weapon)

Every player starts with a basic pistol equipped with a visible red laser pointer. This is your default weapon and serves as the foundation for learning the game mechanics.

Characteristics:

  • • Basic damage output
  • • Standard range
  • • Visible red laser sight
  • • Free starting weapon

Best For:

  • • Learning game mechanics
  • • Early game survival
  • • Budget-conscious players

Tip: The pistol is perfectly viable for winning rounds. Focus on positioning and prediction rather than rushing to upgrade.

Revolver

An upgraded handgun option that offers improved damage over the starting pistol. A solid mid-tier weapon choice for players looking to increase their firepower without breaking the bank.

Advantages:

  • • Higher damage than pistol
  • • Good accuracy
  • • Moderate cost

Strategy:

Use when you have some cash saved but want to invest in power-ups rather than expensive weapons. Good balance between cost and effectiveness.

Shotgun

A powerful close-range weapon that deals devastating damage at short distances. The shotgun excels in the final stages when the arena has shrunk and players are forced into close quarters.

Strengths:

  • • Extremely high damage
  • • Area-of-effect potential
  • • Devastating at close range

Weaknesses:

  • • Limited range
  • • Less effective early game
  • • Higher cost

Best Use: Save up for the shotgun when you're consistently reaching late-game scenarios. It's particularly effective in the shrinking arena.

Laser Gun

A futuristic weapon that fires energy beams. The laser gun offers unique advantages in the invisible combat environment, with potentially better visibility and precision.

Features:

  • • Energy-based damage
  • • High precision
  • • Unique visual effects

Tactical Advantage:

The laser gun's beam may provide better visual feedback, making it easier to track your aim in the chaotic invisible combat.

RPG (Rocket Launcher)

The RPG is one of the most powerful weapons in Blind Shot, capable of dealing massive area damage. It's particularly devastating when multiple players are grouped together or in the shrinking arena.

Power:

  • • Massive area damage
  • • Can eliminate multiple opponents
  • • High single-target damage
  • • Explosive radius

Considerations:

  • • Very expensive
  • • Requires careful aiming
  • • Best saved for late game

Strategy: The RPG is a game-changer but comes at a high cost. Consider whether investing in power-ups like Nukes might be more effective for the same price.

Cobra

The Cobra is a premium weapon option available in the shop. This weapon likely represents one of the highest-tier options, offering exceptional performance for players who can afford it.

Premium Features:

  • • Top-tier damage
  • • Excellent range
  • • Superior accuracy

Investment:

The Cobra requires significant cash investment. Only purchase if you're consistently winning and have cash to spare.

Weapon Strategy Guide

Early Game (0-2 Wins)

Stick with the starting pistol and focus on learning mechanics. Save your cash for essential power-ups like Forcefields rather than expensive weapons. The pistol is perfectly capable of winning rounds with good positioning.

Mid Game (3-5 Wins)

Consider upgrading to a Revolver or Laser Gun if you have extra cash. However, prioritize defensive items and strategic power-ups. A well-timed Forcefield or Bomb can be more valuable than a weapon upgrade.

Late Game (6+ Wins)

With accumulated wealth, you can afford premium weapons like Shotguns, RPGs, or the Cobra. At this stage, consider your playstyle: Shotguns excel in close quarters, RPGs dominate grouped enemies, and premium weapons offer consistent high damage.

Key Insight: Weapon upgrades are important, but power-ups often provide more game-changing advantages. Balance your spending between weapons and consumables based on your playstyle and current situation.
