Weapon Upgrade Progression
Match your weapon class to the dive: kill for loot, net for farm stock and bombs for crowd control.
Early game
The dive knife and cheap melee tools cover early shallow dives. Add a net weapon as soon as possible because live catches feed the farm and reduce repeat dives for ingredients.
Mid game
Ranged rifles and harpoon upgrades let you take down fast or armored targets before they close distance. Upgrade the weapon you use for boss prep first, then add utility weapons for special encounters.
Late game
Special weapons such as bombs, traps and elemental tools solve specific fights. Keep one reliable single-target weapon, one area weapon and one non-lethal tool in rotation.
