Where to Get the M416 Scorched Earth in Once Human

As a seasoned survivor in the post-apocalyptic world of Once Human, I can wholeheartedly vouch for the M416 Scorched Earth as a formidable addition to any Burn build. Having braved the treacherous Onyx Tundra numerous times, I can confidently guide you to this fiery weapon’s location at the top of the mountain base in Obsidian Camp.


In the latest update titled “Way of Winter,” a handful of fresh weapons were added to the roster in Once Human, among them being the M416 series of assault rifles. One variant within this weapon family that has been introduced is Scorched Earth, which serves as an excellent early-game option for players exploring elemental builds.

The M416 Scorched Earth, a rare blue-tier rifle, can be utilized as an alternative starting weapon for a “Burn” build by the faction known as “Once Human“. Acquiring the blueprints for this firearm is relatively straightforward, but if you’d like to obtain it promptly, here’s a concise guide detailing the process.

Once Human M416 Scorched Earth Location

The M416 Scorched is located at the peak of the mountain base within Obsidian Camp, a Vulture Stronghold situated in the southeastern Onyx Tundra region. The enemy level here is approximately 15, and they primarily use ranged weapons. Despite this, you can attack this area as soon as you enter the map since you gain access to the motorcycle early on in this scenario. So, go ahead and make a beeline for the mountain following the introductory sequence.

Bring a set of crafted armor and a Torch so you don’t freeze to death.

To find the Mystical Crate in Obsidian Camp, first, travel beyond the roadside apartments and venture inside a big cavern. Overcome the Vulture camp by either stealth or combat, and you’ll eventually emerge at ground level once more. From there, you can attempt to locate the temporary platforms that lead to the Mystical Crate, or head to the second floor via the main lobby and use the balconies to access the open window, as shown in the image provided.

M416 Stats and Overview

Just like any other weapon in “Once Human,” the M416 Scorched Earth’s basic damage increases depending on its level. When it’s at level 1 (Tier 1) without any additional attachments, it has the following specifications:

StatValue
Base Damage16
Fire Rate750
Magazine36
Stability36
Accuracy45
Range40
Reload Speed55

Furthermore, with each discharge from the M416 Scorched Earth, there’s a 12% probability that it will cause a Burn effect. This Burn effect gradually damages you according to your Psi Intensity level, and multiple instances of Burn can accumulate, enhancing the damage inflicted with each subsequent tick.

In other words, this weapon’s Burn ability shines particularly well when facing enemies with large health reserves. Unfortunately, weaker enemies often perish or are on the verge of death before the first Burn stack is applied using the M416 Scorched Earth. This makes it less suitable for mass combat compared to other weapons. However, it remains a viable option for Burn-focused gameplay if you don’t possess the KAM Crank or the latest ACS12 Pyroclasm Starter. Once you begin adding mods and attachments, it becomes more effective.
