Following the end of closed beta testing, The Cycle: Frontier introduced new weapon spawn points on the Bright Sands map. Some locations yield unusual and rare weapons suitable for sale or for use in subsequent battles.
Weapon spawns appear at many landmarks, typically yielding pistols or submachine guns of common rarity. High rarity assault rifles and sniper rifles, however, appear only in select locations.
Where to find the best weapons on the Bright Sands map — Vaccine Lab
A primary weapon spawn point is near the Vaccine Lab POV, positioned just below the Eastern Caverns. Inside the lab premises, two cannon spawn locations can be found:
- On the lower level of the laboratory, near the lone bed, where a weapon often appears on or near the bed.
- On the second floor, step onto the balcony and inspect the white weapon case to locate a cannon.
The road between the excavations and the power plant
When traveling along the river route from the Power Plant to the Excavations, a white suitcase is typically spotted along the way. This area is known for high rarity assault rifles spawning there.
Communication tower
A campsite sits just above the Communication Tower. Exploration of this zone often yields weapons, usually contained in a white weapon case, but sometimes found on crates or on the ground. Sudden encounters with monsters and other players make this spot particularly risky.
Crashed ship
The next weapon spawn is located inside the crashed ship. Players should search the interior and inspect a chest hidden beneath the foliage for a weapon.
Jungle camp
The final strong weapon spawn on Bright Sands lies at the Jungle Camp. This area is guarded by some of the most powerful and aggressive monsters. Players should locate and ascend the tallest building, which houses a known weapon case.
