[@ozuray4307]

I hope they change it so it's worth upgrading the cross... or at least remove the cross from items you can upgrade and add the bows.

[@ReiCaixa]

I'd like to see OP test the cross time to kill instead of hits. He tested the amount of hits waiting for the afterburn to end. Would be nice if he could test the kill time if you constantly press M1. Maybe there is a small difference. Anyways, they shouldn't remove it, just add the bows. Although it would likely not make any difference in damage.

Honestly thats a really cool idea, and i feel it wouldnt be too out of the ordinary, but like imagine if you put it in one of those spear traps and it auto loads

[@cosmicplayz8773]

Kinda lame that guns don't do any more damage. Mutants are the only thing I use them on too, so might as well not upgrade them for now.

[@nyctitogee]

soon they need to add poison arrows etc.

[@tobiask.7346]

Your wish came true, there are now poison, fire, electric and explosive arrows, you can craft.

[@ReiCaixa]

They should change something else with the firearms and bows (if they add those). My idea is to increase either the reload time and time between shots. For bows they could make the range bigger. This could even be added to the Cross, making the time between hits faster (easier to fight multiple Demons at once)

[@OldDud]

Hey what do you edit your vids with? and thumbnails

[@AlexTopG_]

this thing about upgrading weapons, and making them golden using sulphite is really wonderful! at first I thought they would recycle the power-up through feathers, glass shards, teeth like in The Forest, but instead they did something super innovative and really beautiful! It's almost time for the release date of Sons of the Forest, if it will actually be in mid-October as the developers said (after they postponed this game 3 times), I hope that update 13 will add everything that this game is missing to be perfect and let a great game come out, as Sons of the Forest deserves since in my opinion this game has infinite potential. Except that given the short time, I don't know how it will go, but I'm pretty confident!

[@spikechang556]

That makes the weapons pretty op

[@MalieYap-fd9kn]

Man I wish they would add arrow varieties like poison arrows, fire arrows, maybe even a sulfade/sulfite arrow?

TOP 5 ACCORDING TO THE VIDEO: STANDARD UPGRADED SHOTGUN 2 Hits 2 Hits CROSS 3 Hits 3 Hits KATANA 4 Hits 3 Hits FIRE AXE 4 Hits 3 Hits MODERN AXE 6 Hits 4 Hits

[@Maksiuleczka]

The shotgun probably deals more damage but it's used for bigger enemies

[@LiteralistLine]

1:36 nah bro got a lil too excited💀💀

[@Holloaway]

TL;DR don't bother upgrading the machete (pickaxe is stronger XD), golf putter and guitar. Firearms are also not optimal if you intend to use them primarily on mutants as they deal the exact amount of damage gold or not. Just put the plating on the fire axe, modern axe, katana, tactical axe and maybe the cross?

[@quin1841]

Do upgraded axes chop trees more effectively? I doubt it does but it would be a cool feature.

[@diamondjozu4491]

i doubt it does as its meant for a damage boost but you can make certain soups to make chopping better like that lumberjack recipe

[@SonsOfTheForestNotOfficial]

I tried and I didn't really see the difference. Maybe it is just on enemies and animals

[@cheese3764]

The golden catana is just overkill

Mutants apparently take 10% less firearm damage now, the upgraded guns should have a more notifiable damage difference on normal cannibals however.

Anyone else think Guns are under powered ? The katana seems alittle OP but guns apart from the shotgun seem alittle weak in comparison to blunt weapons .

[@comensee2461]

The shotgun does about 1/4th the amount of damage it did at EA launch because it used to be like the super shotgun from doom. Mutants are resistant to ranged weapons because all of them except the puffys don't have headshot weak points. The compound bow and crossbow are better than the pistols and hunting rifle because they do about the same damage with much easier to find ammunition.

[@freki5905]

You're using heavy attacks for all the melee weapons which is not a good test of the overall damage upgrade. I appreciate the effort for the video though.

[@jing_king]

How to upgrade it?

[@Arthurroo00]

Good to know that I wasted few hours on upgrading shotgun, pistol and riffle. Its also insane, that pistol and revolver are so weak, you can swing axe 3 times and kill somebody(thats good and realistic) but you need 15!!! shots to kill him, if that was a case in real life, nobody would ever need a firearm. While playing, I noticed how hard it is to kill something with a gun. Ammunition is not so easy to obtain, but bow arrows can be easily 3D printed and will still kill a mutant faster than a gun. Why do we need technological progress, we should fight each other with bows and axes, they are stronger.

[@CYWNightmare]

Aim for the head revolver takes like 4 shots on a ribcage monster. Or one headshot on most normal unarmored cannibals.

[@Arthurroo00]

@@CYWNightmare Cannibals are somekind easy to deal with just katana once you get used to these cosmic and inhuman dodges that they perform with a reaction time faster than my 24-inch screen. Using firearm on them is a waste, ranged weapons are against mutants because they have no reaction to hits, so they dont stagger witch is pretty riddicoulus. So what is the purpose of a gun when bow can do it much faster in a cheaper way? My point is that this game is becoming more and more unrealistic with each patch, because the developers balance it for nerds who save and load 30 times to collect resources.

[@jcpapacharlie9655]

we need fire arrows, plz!!!

[@goodss2730]

How accurate is this, i assume a head shot deals more than a body hit right?

[@user-td4mo6zb5d]

With most firearms, I think it's reasonable that even if you upgrade them to gold, it's just a gold screen on the gun. It doesn't make the gun more powerful because the strength of the gun is in the bullets. If it were to really make the gun more powerful, it would be Do I have to change the bullet for the bullet or is it gold?

[@cioata69]

At cross its less upgrade 😂❤

[@TAKIZAWAYAMASHITA]

So according to this, upgrading guns is useless as they take the same hits to kill only the melee weapon got a actual buff
