Eoka Pistol

A single-shot spark gun you can make from scraps on day one. Fine for an ambush or a wooden door, terrible in a fair fight.

Overview

In-game description
A very cheap, very ineffective, and very unreliable pistol that fires shells.

Day one, a pile of wood and some metal fragments: that is all an Eoka costs, and you do not even need a workbench. Load a handmade shell, creep up on someone farming, and you can win a fight you had no business taking.

Pros

Cons

  • Crafted without a workbench from starter resources
  • One shell up close does serious damage
  • Can break a wooden door when you have nothing better
  • It fires from a scraped spark, which may take several tries to catch
  • Wide spread, so it only works point-blank
  • One shell, then a reload before every shot

That firing delay is the whole problem. In a face-to-face fight the other player jumps or swings while you are still scraping. Many players craft two and swap guns instead of reloading.

As soon as you can afford a waterpipe shotgun, switch. It costs more but fires when you click. Buckshot and slugs fit the Eoka later too, though by then you own better guns to feed them.
