Zap Gun<\/li> <\/ul> Lethal Company <\/em>has several monsters that can spawn at random locations depending on the selected moon. Most of the smaller ones can be killed, and to do so, you’ll need to have one special item equipped: the shovel<\/strong>. Carrying the flashlight can only illumine locations and help you find your way, but the shovel is a fantastic tool for defending yourself or saving your allies in dire situations. <\/p>
The shovel, alongside the stop sign which can be found in the wild, can be used as a whack-a-mole weapon to put some of these horrifying creatures out of their misery. You can also use it to stop certain monsters from attacking your allies, such as that one face-hugging bug that likes to jump on everyone’s heads. Shovels are a fantastic tool in Lethal Company <\/em>and should always be considered when purchasing items.<\/p>
The Zap Gun may cost 400, but it’s for good reason. This weapon allows players to stun most enemies at a close range. The Zap Gun, combined with another player wielding a shovel or stop sign, makes for a good one-two punch.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Going through all the game's maps and facilities is a huge challenge in the dark. So let us take a look at how to get and use the flashlight in Lethal Company. How to get the flashlight in Lethal Company Players need to purchase flashlights from the Terminal in order to start lighting their way through Lethal Company. One of the commands gives you access to the store, where you can promptly purchase valuable equipment, including the flashlight. So, here's how to do it: Aboard the spaceship, access the Terminal. Type in \"store.\" Then type in \"flashlight.\" And that should be it! You've now purchased the flashlight, which costs 15 credits a pop. You can also purchase several flashlights by adding a number next to it, for example: \"flashlight 3.\" Flashlights and other purchased items won't become immediately available to you in the spaceship. You'll have to start a run and land on a moon, then wait until a care package drops down and plays the notorious ice cream van music. You can then open it, and the flashlight, alongside any other purchased item, will drop out of the pods. These flashlights are cheap and a great way to put some light in the hands of each crew member, but the downside is that their batteries don't last long at all. If you're looking for a more powerful illumination item, a Pro Flashlight can be purchased from the Terminal store for 25 credits. Yes, they're more expensive, but their improved battery life is an enormous boon for lengthy excursions. Other recommended items in Lethal Company Some key defensive items: Shovel Stop Sign Zap Gun Lethal Company has several monsters that can spawn at random locations depending on the selected moon. Most of the smaller ones can be killed, and to do so, you'll need to have one special item equipped: the shovel. Carrying the flashlight can only illumine locations and help you find your way, but the shovel is a fantastic tool for defending yourself or saving your allies in dire situations. The shovel, alongside the stop sign which can be found in the wild, can be used as a whack-a-mole weapon to put some of these horrifying creatures out of their misery.

Shovels are a fantastic tool in Lethal Company and should always be considered when purchasing items. The Zap Gun may cost 400, but it's for good reason. This weapon allows players to stun most enemies at a close range. The Zap Gun, combined with another player wielding a shovel or stop sign, makes for a good one-two punch.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Lethal-Company-Bigger-Lobby-Players.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1036337"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2309"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1036337"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1036337\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1079494,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1036337\/revisions\/1079494"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1045194"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1036337"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1036337"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1036337"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=1036337"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=1036337"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=1036337"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=1036337"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
