Obtaining Rais’s Gun in Dying Light: A Comprehensive Guide
Rais’s Gun, a powerful and coveted firearm, can be obtained in Dying Light by completing the side quest “The Shadow of the King”. This quest is given by Ishaq in Old Town. You will eventually venture into Rais’s old hotel room during the quest’s progression. The gun is located inside a locked supply crate within the room, requiring you to open the crate to acquire it.
Delving Deeper: “The Shadow of the King” Quest
The “Shadow of the King” quest is a pivotal side mission that unlocks access to this unique firearm. Ishaq, the quest giver, tasks you with investigating Rais’s past, specifically focusing on his former hotel room. This involves navigating the treacherous streets of Old Town, battling the infected, and overcoming various challenges to reach your destination. Once inside the hotel room, you’ll need to locate the locked supply crate. Depending on your lockpicking skill level, you may need to level up your skill tree or use lockpicks. Upon successfully opening the crate, Rais’s Gun will be yours.
A Gun Worth the Effort
Rais’s Gun is a significant asset in the game, especially when facing hordes of zombies or powerful enemies. Its high damage output and relatively good accuracy make it a valuable addition to your arsenal. Remember to keep your gun maintained with metal parts to ensure it continues to serve you effectively throughout your adventure in Harran.
