Far Cry 6 features a lot of distinct and useful weapons that players can discover but there are some that stand out from the rest.

This guide helps players know which weapons in the game are worth upgrading all the way to the endgame and how to get them. Far Cry 6 has a robust and deep upgrade system that was designed to benefit players who put time and effort into it.

Some of the most powerful weapons in the game can be acquired at rank 1 early in the game and later just upgraded. Read on to see how you can get stronger with these items.

The .308 Carbine

This weapon is a sniper rifle that can be purchased from Juans Arms Dealers and Guerrilla Garrisons. Players can also get one by looting from a chest outside Gabriel Castillo Public School (Lozania), according to Game Rant.

The Rank 2 .308 Carbine sniper rifle does not have very good stats at its base level. However, once it gets four attachment modification slots and one stat-boosting mod slot, it can become a powerhouse.

This particular weapon has a lot of staying power and a lot of players will use it until they can upgrade to something a lot better. You need to be Rank 4 to buy one from Juans Arms dealers but even at Rank 1, you can purchase it from Guerrilla Garrison.

SVD

The SVD is a good step up from the .308 Carbine sniper rifle due to its power and handling. This weapon is a Rank 3 sniper rifle that can be purchased from Juan Arms dealers and the Guerrilla Garrison. It can also be looted from the FND cache located in the GDP Oil Platform's main office.

Many players often argue that this sniper rifle is the best in the game only lagging behind the MBP .50. The main advantage of the SVD is that it does not need to reload after every shot you fire.

Hi-Fi

This is a Rank 3 rifle that is a good all-rounder choice and gives players some flexibility while out and about. This weapon offers a decent fire rate, solid accuracy, and deals a decent amount of damage to enemies, The Gamer said.

One more thing to note about this rifle is that it is automatically loaded with blast rounds that are useful for taking out vehicles. The Hi-Fi can be found at the El Rancho Bicho in the Noventarmas region. You need to find a crocodile chest at the end of a bed to get it.

La Varita

Arguably the best weapon available in Far Cry 6 is La Varita, a Rank 4 resolver weapon that deals devastating damage to enemies. One drawback that this weapon has is that for you to get the full strength of it, you need to use it alongside its companion Supremo, Triador.

The two work out well because Triador's special ability is to see through walls and La Varita can shoot through walls. Both of these can be acquired when you finish the Triada Relics trio of treasure hunts.

La Varita is powerful enough to one-shot almost any enemy with a headshot. Alongside the ability to see through walls, this weapon becomes a menace in the hands of a good shooter, according to Rock Paper Shotgun.
