All Secret Weapons in Grounded 2 (& Where to Find Them)

In Grounded 2, special versions of regular weapons known as “secret weapons” come with unique effects that aren’t found anywhere else. These exclusive items are often considered as one-of-a-kind, with only one existing in a specific world within Grounded 2. Since they can be acquired just once per world, players in a shared world must make their selection carefully. The only method to get these weapons is by digging them up from where they’re hidden.

As a fellow gaming enthusiast, I’ve found that while homemade weapons are solid choices, the special ones really bring something extra to the table. They come equipped with one-of-a-kind effects that you just can’t craft yourself. If you’re hankering for a fresh, unique weapon to shake up your gaming experience, here’s a guide on how to snag them all.

Bushwacker

Tier 2 Bow

Requirement: Orb Weaver Buggy
Location: Pine Hill

Head towards Pine Hill situated at the map’s upper left corner. Locate the entrance to the western hedge as indicated on your map. Approach the tree root directly in front of you and leap onto the one behind it, which is also part of the same tree. Ascend this second root until you exit the hedge; it will guide you around a hidden portion of the hedge.

This paraphrase aims to provide clear instructions while using more natural and conversational language.

Traverse the linked webs among the treetop branches, and you’ll discover a high-perched yellow leaf adorned with a box. Uncover this box to reveal the Bushwacker.

Crimson Avenger

Tier 2 One-Handed Sword

Requirement: Tier 2 Shovel, Red Soldier Ant Buggy
Location: Spider Den Anthill (Pine Hill)

Find the Spider Den Anthill located in the Pine Hill region, specifically at its southern entrance. This anthill lies right smack in the heart of an enormous spider web nest. Once inside, keep going straight along the path without any turns or deviations. You’ll eventually reach the Memorial Crate – a large wooden box filled with intriguing artifacts.

In this rephrased version, I aimed to maintain the original meaning while making it more conversational and easier to read for the average reader.

In one corner of the box, you’ll find a sticky wad of gum containing the Crimson Avenger. To free the Crimson Avenger, use a medium-sized shovel to carefully excavate it from the gum. An alternative route is through the Northern Entrance of Spider Den Anthill, but this path is longer and there’s a Wolf Spider standing guard at the entrance.

Scarlet Aegis

Tier 2 Shield

Requirement: Bratburst (Any Explosive), Red Soldier Ant Buggy
Location: Ceremony

Just beyond the Lectern and the Ceremony Rock, there’s a cozy little cave teeming with Northern Scorpions. At the very end of this cave, there’s a damaged wall that can be breached using a Bratburst bomb. Breaking through it will uncover a secret room containing a chest holding the Scarlet Aegis, along with some additional treasures.

The cave near the lectern and ceremony rock is home to scorpions. At the back of this cave, you’ll find a damaged wall that can be blown up with a Bratburst bomb. This will open a secret room with a chest containing the Scarlet Aegis and some extra loot inside.

The cave additionally contains deposits of Quartzite and Marble, some being brittle while others are robust. Consequently, it’s necessary to have a level 2 hammer for mining the robust ones.

Pinch Wacker

Tier 2 One-Handed Club

Requirement: Bratburst (Any Bomb)
Location: Fire Pit

Nearby the eastern side of the purple soda can, situated in the north region of the Fire Pit area, lies a concealed cave. Within this cave, there’s a fissured stone that can be shattered by throwing a Bratburst bomb at it.

Upon breaking the wall, you’ll find the Pinch Wacker situated on a purple armchair. Accompanying it will be a Mega Milk Molar and a supply box.

Gloom Skewer

Tier 2 Spear

Requirement: Tier 2 Axe, Gas Mask
Location: Toxic Anthill (Snackbar Front)

Beneath the Poisonous Mound lies a network of twisting passages saturated with harmful substances and teeming with cockroaches. Don a Gas Mask to shield yourself from the toxic surroundings and continue your descent. Over time, you’ll discover the Cockroach Queen’s battle arena.

Following your victory over the Cockroach Queen, you’ll encounter a cluster of mushrooms with a fallen Ominent worker right before them. Fell the mushroom stalks using a level 2 Axe, then retrieve the Gloom Skewer hidden within the cave.

Heatwave

Tier 2 Candy Staff

Requirement: Tier 2 Hammer, Sizzle Reduction Gear
Location: Fire Pit

The Heatwave is situated smack-dab in the middle of the Fire Pit, accessible by scaling over the green soldiers at the Melted Army Men point of interest (POI). Inside, walk around the wood in the fire pit until you spot the action figure’s burning mouth in the center. Knock down the two Charcoal blocks to clear a path and squat to snatch Heatwave from within the mouth.

Instead of leaping from the rusty nail positioned at a distance on the wall, opt for escaping the fire pit. This will enable the accumulated Sizzle to disperse on its own. To ensure your wellbeing, consume smoothies whenever necessary to prevent succumbing to the flames.

Be cautious as a Bombardier Beetle is patrolling the Fire Pit’s outer rim. It’s recommended that you handle this menace prior to attempting Heatwave, since it could surprise and attack you during your escape.
