The Wonder Weapons in Dead Rails are some of the most powerful weapons of destruction in the entire game. Hidden within rare buildings that spawn only in the desert biome, these legendary weapons can help you clear any mobs, especially when facing hordes of zombies or even Werewolves. Each Wonder Weapon has unique mechanics, effects, and drawbacks. So, Here a complete Wonder Weapons guide that will help you locate, purchase, and use every Wonder Weapon in Dead Rails.
All Wonder Weapons in Dead Rails and How To Get Them
Currently, there are three Wonder Weapons available in Dead Rails. Each can only be found inside the Evil Church, a rare building spawn located in the desert biome. Once you find an Evil Church, you need to clear the zombies, find the Wonder Weapon displayed on the altar, and then purchase it from the register behind for $500, currently the most expensive price in the game.
| Wonder Weapon | Effect | Price | Usage Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| Spear of Longinus | A long spear that drenches enemies in holy water upon hit. Deals massive holy damage, capable of two- to four-shotting zombies. | $500 | Works as a reusable melee weapon with no special requirements. Excellent for crowd control. |
| Holy Hand Grenade | A sacred explosive that acts like a mini nuke. Has a massive blast radius and can nearly one-shot Werewolves and large mobs. | $500 | One-time-use throwable weapon. Best used for emergencies or heavy waves. |
| Tesla Cannon | Fires devastating bolts of lightning that chain across enemies. Almost one-shots Werewolves and wipes out smaller mobs instantly. | $500 | Consumes 3 charges per shot. Perfect for late-game defense or clearing clustered enemies. |
Each Evil Church typically contains one random Wonder Weapon, meaning you will have to explore multiple desert biomes to collect them all.
How To Find Evil Church in Dead Rails
The Evil Church is a new, rare building that only spawns within the default desert biome. It has a distinct gothic structure with broken windows and dark stone walls visible from a distance.
When approaching the building, be prepared for getting attacked as there are usually three to four zombies guarding the entrance. Once inside, you’ll see a platform or altar in the center displaying one of the three Wonder Weapons.
To get it, follow the steps mentioned below:
- Interact with the weapon on the platform to pick it up.
- Find the cash register behind the altar, and place the weapon there.
- Spend $500 to unlock and claim the Wonder Weapon.
Since Evil Churches are not guaranteed to spawn, your best chance is to explore every desert biome thoroughly. Especially, keep an eye out for silhouettes on the horizon or faint lights at night, as they can help you locate church spawn nearby.
