Sons Of The Forest: Ten Best Weapons

Keep cannibals at bay with the best weapons in the game.

The Rifle is a long-distance weapon that comes equipped with a red-dot scope attachment, allowing you to accurately take down cannibals from afar. If you're having trouble locating the Rifle, this guide will show you exactly where you need to go to get it.

Where Is The Rifle Located

The Rifle can be found hidden deep inside a cave on the eastern side of the snowy mountains, alongside the shore of the lake; it's the largest body of water on the map.

The entrance to the cave is located on the upper left side of the lake and will be boarded up. Break through the wooden planks and begin your descent inside.

There is a decently long swimming section within the cave, so make sure you have theRebreather equipped before entering.

Once you enter, stick to the right side of the cave and walk past the broken boat. You will head up a path marked by wooden planks on the rocks.

The steep path will spit you out into an open room where you will continue to move against the right side wall. This will lead you to a low entrance that you must crouch through.

Upon entering deeper into the cave, there will be a gold cave painting directly ahead of you.

Head towards the painting and then turn right. There will be a dead body lying against a rock and to the left of it will be some more wooden planks that you will follow.

Keep going down the narrow path, you will end up in a fairly large area with many stalagmites and stalactites.

Stay to the right and travel along a ledge that will lead you to another pathway marked by clumps of golden material. Follow the path, and it will take you to a flooded section.

Using your Rebreather, jump into the water and hug the right side of the wall to find the path forward. Keep swimming forward and you will reach the next section.

After exiting the water, you will follow the stone path ahead into another room with a stone hill on the right. Go up the path and continue alongside the stalagmites.

You will see a lighted spot with skulls hanging from the ceiling. Next to the skulls will be a dead soldier along with some body parts at his feet.

Go left of the body and there will be another stone incline that leads you to two more dead soldiers on the ceiling. The one on the left is holding the Rifle.

All you have to do now is take the gun from him, and now you have found the Rifle.
