Exploration in Voyagers isn’t only about sailing and fishing—combat plays a huge role as well. Every island holds danger, from enemies to hidden bosses, and having the right weapon can make the difference between survival and defeat.
Weapons are essential items that let players fight enemies across islands, making exploration easier and safer. Some can be looted directly from ships and islands, while others are rare drops from specific enemies or can be purchased at the Merchant Island. Since weapons vary in strength and utility, knowing where to get them will help you progress faster.
This guide covers all available weapons in the game, where to find them, and a simple tier list to help you decide which ones are worth chasing. Check out our other guide for Voyagers in the beginner section.
