This weapon takes skill to use, and lets you pack a real punch from afar without getting into striking distance. If everything goes to plan, your foes will be dead long before they get to you – which is a shame, because they’d probably love to get a look at your scoped rifle, considering the sheer number of cosmetics for the Eye Of Reach. But hey, at least you can appreciate them! And here’s our picks for the best Eye Of Reach skins in the game.
15. Dark Warsmith Eye Of Reach
Cost: 249 Ancient Coins Shop Location: Pirate Emporium Let’s face it: Glowing weapons are awesome, but nothing stings more than a stealth mission going wrong because your gun is lit up like a Christmas tree. The Dark Warsmith Eye Of Reach solves this problem, because if you’re using it right, you’re going to be nowhere near your enemy when you pull the trigger! This weapon is dark and ornate, with metalwork built into the stock, and the dull fiery glow from the barrel looks menacing at night. Freshly forged, ready for battle, and a high bar to start off this list with.
14. Launch Crew Eye Of Reach
Cost: N/A Shop Location: N/A Here’s a rifle design that’s lower on the list because it’s not available anymore – and probably never will be. But it’s perfect for you drunkards out there. I’m not shaming anyone, though you know who you are. The Launch Crew Eye Of Reach is a rather unique skin where the scope gets replaced a bottle… Well, it’s Sea Of Thieves so of course it works. And the resulting design will make any pirate thirsty just by using it. The ‘Launch Crew’ label is a nice touch too, as you could only purchase this weapon when the game was in its infancy back in 2018.
13. Parrot Eye Of Reach
Cost: 13,400 Gold Shop Location: Weaponsmith’s Shop Not sure how they managed to make a parrot-themed sniper rifle look good, but here we are! Sometimes themed weapons can be a bit over the top in Sea of Thieves. But the Parrot Eye Of Reach looks superb. This weapon is decorated with exotic bright flecks of green and gold, and has a parrot’s head built around the barrel. Usually I’d recommend a weapon like this to go along with your feathered friend – but the pet is 100% optional here.
12. Lunar Festival Eye Of Reach
Cost: 249 Ancient Coins Shop Location: Pirate Emporium Who said a weapon needed to glow to be eye-catching? The Lunar Festival Eye Of Reach stands out with its bright red and yellow details that look like they came fresh out of a Lego box. Some of the other Lunar Festival weapons look a bit chunky, but they did a great job with the rifle. This is perfect if you want a splash of color in your weaponry, without looking like you have a lantern stuck to your gun.
11. Wild Rose Eye Of Reach
Cost: 75 Doubloons Shop Location: Weaponsmith’s Shop Some of the most stylish cosmetics you can get belong to the Wild Rose set. And the rifle is no exception. The Wild Rose Eye Of Reach is available to all from day one – but getting the doubloons together for it may take a while. The grind is well worth it though, because along with the rest of the set, this beautiful weapon is wrapped in a rose-red ribbon and is laced with gold. This isn’t just one of the most stylish weapons you can get early, oh no. It’s also one of the most stylish in the game, full stop.
10. Ruffian Eye Of Reach
Cost: 9450 Gold Shop Location: Weaponsmith’s Shop There are a ton of weird and wonderful weapons in Sea of Thieves. But if you’re a purist with an appreciation for the simpler things, your options are more limited. Fear not though, as the Ruffian Eye Of Reach may be just what you need. This weapon is as classic looking as you can get. It’s got a fantastic design with the simple grey and silver color scheme, and notable lack of “bits” stuck on it. If you fancy yourself as a bit of a card shark at the Tavern then you’ll dig the Spade symbol on the stock too.
9. Aristocrat Eye Of Reach
Cost: 75 Doubloons Shop Location: Weaponsmith’s Shop Most weapons in Sea of Thieves have seen a ton of use with all the cracks, damage, and muck you shouldn’t ask questions about… The Aristocrat Eye of Reach is beautiful, but it looks so out of place because it has none of that stuff on it. Basically pristine. This rifle is in day one condition, with its wonderful cream-colored stock and pale red details. This will only suit the cleanest of captains. And if that isn’t you… maybe you should put it back in whatever cabinet you pinched it from.
8. Rogue Sea Dog Eye Of Reach
Cost: 9450 Gold Shop Location: Weaponsmith’s Shop Snipers are known for their deadly aim. So it’s fitting that the faction obsessed with collecting skulls can also give you the perfect weapon to remove those skulls. The Rogue Sea Dog Eye Of Reach is a traditionally-styled rifle with a sleek black stock, and is unlocked by reaching level 48 with the Order Of Souls. Voyages for the Order often involve you laying waste to dozens of skeletons – so the picture on the stock of the weapon actually makes a lot of sense!
7. Admiral Eye Of Reach
Cost: 9450 Gold Shop Location: Weaponsmith’s Shop Do you fancy yourself as a captain back to port after a Maiden Voyage? Well whatever your weapon of choice might be, it’s important you look the part! Here’s the Admiral Eye Of Reach, and it’s an exceptionally smart-looking rifle skin. But the best thing about it? You can buy it from day one with gold you can scratch together from your first voyage or two. As the name suggests, this weapon would fit perfectly in the hands of a courageous leader. You may be admiral in name, but do you have the aim of one? Let’s find out!
6. Legendary Eye Of Reach
Cost: 9450 Gold Shop Location: Athena’s Fortune Shop This is a bit much for my taste – but considering all you have to go through to get it, you’ve earned the right to use any weapon you want. The Legendary Eye Of Reach is an eye-catching purple and gold rifle with the Pirate Legend symbol proudly set into the stock. As you may expect, this weapon is only available to Pirate Legends. But there’s a catch: This weapon has the extra requirement of 240 wins in the Arena as a Pirate Legend. Only the most battle-hardened warriors are capable of such a feat. So if you see someone with this skin, then surrender or shoot to kill.
5. Dark Adventurer’s Eye Of Reach
Cost: 2,551,500 Gold Shop Location: Athena’s Fortune Shop After collecting countless bounties and gathering countless riches, you may run out of things to spend your gold on. If you’re in this position then I’ve got you covered. The Dark Adventurer’s Eye Of Reach is only available once you become a Pirate Legend, and is so expensive that even the richest Pirates will shed a tear handing over so much gold! The rifle itself uses a slick black and silver design style, with a red skull decorating the top of the barrel. I just wish they polished off some of the rust for that price.
4. Ghost Eye Of Reach
Cost: 67,595 Gold Shop Location: Athena’s Fortune Shop If you’re looking for something different that only the most experienced & grizzled veterans can ever hope to wield, this rifle has it all. The Ghost Eye Of Reach is only available to Pirate Legends who have fought all the way to Level 18 with the Athena’s Fortune Emissary. Accomplishing that feat alone will take hundreds of hours… and for that time, you’re rewarded with a glowing mechanical monstrosity covered in twisted metal. This isn’t a sniper rifle anymore. This is heavy artillery.
3. Soulflame Eye Of Reach
Cost: 500,000 Gold Shop Location: Athena’s Fortune Shop Let’s say you’re in the market for something truly rare and coveted. Maybe you want something that’s recognized and feared. Well, “feared” may be a stretch… but amongst the more experienced pirates, this will get you some credit. The Soulflame Eye Of Reach stands out like no other. Because aside from the basic shape, everything glows! And what makes this weapon sought after in SoT is its absurd unlock requirement: 25 Fort Of The Damned clears stand between you and owning this weapon. And considering the maniacs the fort attracts, you’ll have to prove you’re worthy of it.
2. Silver Blade Eye Of Reach
Cost: N/A Shop Location: N/A This next rifle is probably the prettiest in the game. And considering how many different skin options there are, that’s quite a statement. The Silver Blade Eye Of Reach is an incredible skin that’s decorated in an icy arctic white and silver with a pale purple barrel. I hope you have a sniper’s patience if you want this for yourself, because this weapon is a reward for playing on the Insider build of Sea Of Thieves for at least an hour a week, for 45 weeks. You’ll need to put in some real time & effort to unlock this exquisite instrument of death. That said, it’s totally worth it.
1. Glorious Sea Dog Eye Of Reach
Cost: 13,400 Gold Shop Location: Weaponsmith’s Shop If you want the perfect balance between classy and colorful, or traditional yet unique, look no further. But the unlock condition is definitely not easy… The Glorious Sea Dog Eye Of Reach stands out with its fiery red and gold color scheme. And you may be asking what that medal is all about… well that’s what makes getting this weapon so difficult. You need to kill 200 pirates in the Arena, and you need to use an Eye Of Reach to do it, if you want to replace your ratty old rifle with this one. There are no tricks here, just skill. Are you up for the challenge?
