Makeshift Handgun

Details

At 10 weight each it eats carry capacity fast, so bring a mount or park a chest nearby. At 30,340 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.

Where to Find Makeshift Handgun

The recipe is not on the Technology tree — it is locked behind a schematic you have to find first. The best single source is sea base enemy camp boss stashes in the Grasslands at 0.6% per container, and the table below lists every tier and where each one drops.

Every Tier of Makeshift Handgun

The same piece exists at 5 rarities, and the gap is not cosmetic: attack runs 320 to 800, a 2.5x swing. Which one you end up with is decided by the rarity of the schematic you built from, not by the recipe — so a legendary copy of this is worth more than the next item up built from a common one.

Ammunition Makeshift Handgun Uses

Makeshift Handgun fires Coarse Ammo, and nothing else — running dry mid-fight is the usual way this weapon lets you down, so keep the recipe unlocked before you rely on it.

Schematics That Unlock Makeshift Handgun

The Technology tree hands you the plain Makeshift Handgun at level 24 for 3 Technology points, but nothing above that base version — the rarer builds are schematic-only. One schematic grants the recipe, and they are world loot — chests, boss Pals and the late-game pools — rather than anything you research. Higher-rarity copies of the same schematic raise the quality of what you end up crafting.

Fastest route. Two routes to the top-tier Makeshift Handgun schematic, and they are not measured in the same thing: about 33 kills hunting it directly from fenglope (alpha), or roughly 85 containers farming the 3★ copy from sea base enemy camp boss stashes in the Grasslands and fusing five. Which is faster depends on how long one of each takes you. Schematics fuse five-to-one, so a lower tier with better odds can beat the top tier outright. Counts are containers of that source, not time.

Makeshift Handgun Schematic 4	4★	Grasslands sea base camp stashes, Treasure map digs (tier 1), Forest camp loot +6 more — best 0.6% (grade 3/4/5) · Supply drops in the Grasslands (0.09%) · Fenglope (3%)
