The Gustav Musket is a Damiane-exclusive weapon, fitting her role as the party's ranged combatant.
Muskets in Crimson Desert are slow-firing, high-damage ranged weapons that specialize in powerful single shots and charged attacks. They excel at opening engagements from a distance before the player switches to melee or faster ranged options. The Gustav Musket follows this pattern, offering a potent ranged option for players who invest in Damiane's Marksmanship skill tree.

The Gustav Musket is dropped by Samara, the Sandwatcher upon defeating her. Samara is an optional boss located at a fortress in the northern Golden Plains of Demeniss. The fortress is heavily guarded, but players can skip the perimeter guards by jumping over the outer wall directly into the courtyard to trigger the boss fight.
For detailed boss fight strategy, see the Samara article. The Nature's Snare skill is particularly effective against Samara, as it blocks and reflects her ranged attacks back at her.
The Gustav Musket is used by Damiane as part of her ranged weapon loadout. Damiane can equip both a pistol and a musket, allowing her to switch between rapid mid-range fire and powerful long-range shots. The musket excels as an opener: fire a charged shot from distance, then switch to pistol or melee weapons for close-quarters combat.
Key musket-related skills that enhance the Gustav Musket's effectiveness include:
Charged Shot: Hold the fire button to charge a more powerful shot that deals increased damage.
Evasive ShotFire while performing an evasive maneuver, maintaining damage output while repositioning.
Quick ReloadReduce the musket's reload time, addressing its primary weakness.
Focused ShotIncreases accuracy and damage when firing from a stationary position.
The Gustav Musket is one of two drops from the Samara boss fight, alongside the Shadow Contract.
The name "Gustav" likely refers to the musket's original maker or a previous owner. The exact lore connection is not fully explained in the item description.
Muskets are generally considered situational weapons in Crimson Desert, best used as openers before switching to faster weapons.
Damiane is the only character who can equip muskets. Kliff and Oongka cannot use this weapon.
