Combo weapon creation guide

The third Dead Rising makes the crafting of new weapons something really simple and immediate: in Dead Rising 3 we will be able to create any weapon, at any time, the important thing is to know where to find the necessary pieces.

Combo weapon creation guide

In Dead Rising 3 we don't need to find the classic workbench for creating combo weapons. From Vibrating Cannons to Fireballs, the variety of weapons available is truly vast. In this guide we see what are the combo and super combo weapons that can be created, also indicating which are the pieces "ingredients" for the creation and where are the projects (schemes) necessary to create the weapon.

Don't forget to consult the Dead Rising 3 cheats sheet for other useful guides on this game.

Here is the list with all the combo weapons. It will surely come in handy if you want to unlock the "Duct Tape Master: Craft All Combo Weapons" achievement.

Combo weapon creation guide Before starting with the list here is some important information that could save you some time if you are aiming to create ALL the combo weapons to unlock the achievement. Combo weapons you will have to create them yourself or get them from online friends, NPCs or find them in the game world. When you find a pattern for a combo weapon, look well in the area because the required ingredients are always in the same room or nearby.

The most important tip is to create the combo weapon as soon as you find the blueprint and ingredients and take note of the ones you don't do right away, otherwise it will become difficult to keep track of the ones you have already created.

Apparently two of the hardest items to find are the Mini Chainsaw (delivered by Ravi in a side quest) and the Tactical Pistol found in Chapter 0 when you are in the highway tunnel.

Here is the list, the names are in English, but you will have no difficulty in understanding which objects they are. The list also indicates the place where you can find the various schemes, in any case I also propose a video that shows the exact position of all the schemes, use it if you have difficulty finding a particular scheme.
