Welcome to your quick guide to all the workbench locations in Hunt: Showdown! In this guide, you will learn the locations of workbenches on all three maps in the game and how to use them to unlock weapon variants, custom ammo, tools, and consumables. Whether you’re just starting your journey to Bloodline Rank 100 or already at Prestige 100, this guide will help you progress faster. And if you’re already at Prestige 100, this guide can still come in handy when new guns and items are added to the game. Let’s dive in and discover the power of workbenches!
What are workbenches and what are they used for?
Skip to 4:50 into the video to learn about Workbenches.
Found in all compounds these workbenches can spawn:
- Blueprints – Provides 3 random unlocks (respecting unlock order) from any weapon family. Can also unlock tools/consumables before the required Bloodline Rank is reached.
- Gun Oil – Unlocks the next rank for the equipped weapon/tool/consumable or a random available unlock (respecting unlock order) if the equipped weapon/tool/consumable has no more unlocks. (The second portion of this is bugged as of the time of posting but should be fixed in the next patch)
- Can spawn any weapon variant (yes, even the Avto)
The chance of any one of these spawning is random. Some times you’ll find nothing, other times you may find just a Blueprint or Gun Oil and no weapon. Other times you may find a weapon variant but no Blueprint or Gun Oil.
Compounds that have multiple benches do not seem to have a higher chance to spawn multiple items, so it’s all luck of the draw.
