Hand-to-hand combat won't cut it in Dead Sails. To take down mobs and secure the best loot, you'll need to be well-armed. Fortunately, the developers have kept the weapon selection streamlined, with each option serving a unique purpose. Let's dive into the weapons available in Dead Sails, their mechanics, and where to find them:

Armor in Dead Sails

*Chestplate*75 Dabloons at the Shop StoreIncreases your resistance to damage, though it won't prevent death outright.
