How to Get Better Weapons in No One Survived – Best Traders to Visit

There are three traders in the game that focus on weapons and each of them has different stuff to offer. Let’s examine them in turn.
1. Maria – Animal Trader
She is the first merchant players will meet and focuses on selling animals and items that increase mentality.
Additionally, players can learn from her Tailoring 1-5 and Weapon Manufacturing 1-3, which is used for getting better weapons.
Maria can be found on the east side of the map, at the following coordinates: 1.723, 889.
2. Hank – Gun Trader
Hank is your classic gun trader merchant that sells a variety of guns, ammo, and weapon attachments.
Also, players can learn Medicine 1-5, and Metallurgy 1-3 from him.
Especially during the early game, Hank is a great way to get your hands on some better weapons. He can be found in the middle of the map, at the following coordinates: 994, 1.098.
3. Sarah – Book Trader
Books are an amazing way to increase your skills quickly and that’s why I recommend seeking Sarah, the book trader.
Her stock resets often and allows players to buy a wide variety of books (random each time).
On top of that, she can teach players Weapon Manufacturing 1-5 and Medicine 1-3.
Sarah can be found on the southeast side of the map, at the following coordinates: 1.250, 1.496.
Best Areas to Loot for Weapons in No One Survived

If you don’t want to spend any resources and prefer looting instead, I highly recommend visiting any military areas.
These have a wide supply of military clothes, backpacks, weapons, weapon attachments, and ammo.
With some luck, you can get better weapons by looting without having to spend anything.
Alternatively, if you’re looking for melee weapons, consider checking out any mining areas, since these are full of melee tools.
Wrapping up
To summarize, that’s everything that you should know on how to get better weapons in No One Survived.
Use the available weapon traders or go looting in the right locations and you’ll get better weapons, attachments, and ammo to help you survive longer.
