**How to Find The Elite Legendary Pistol Early in Dying Light: The Beast**
Dying Light: The Beast wouldn’t be the thrilling open-world game with loot mechanics it is without powerful hidden gear to discover. One of the best—and easiest—to get your hands on early in the game is *The Elite*, a Legendary Pistol you can acquire shortly after entering the open world for the first time. Here’s how to find it.
### Where to Find The Elite Legendary Pistol
The Legendary Pistol called *The Elite* is located inside a locked military convoy resting on a bridge west of the Monastery Safe Zone, which you unlock at the beginning of the game. To find it, head to the western edge of the hill where the Monastery stands. From there, you should have a clear view of the bridge and the derelict train cars where the weapon is hidden.
### How to Access The Elite
Once you reach the bridge, you’ll need to deal with some infected enemies before accessing the convoy. After clearing the area, your next step is to power up the train cars.
Start by turning on the generator — simply interact with the green button nearby. Then, grab the power cable located to the right of the generator. Your goal is to drag this cable straight east across the bridge to the locked bunker car on the other side.
The bunker car is locked, so you’ll need to pick the lock to open the door. Inside, you can connect the cable to the power coupling to restore electricity.
### Obtaining the Keycard and The Elite
To actually retrieve *The Elite*, you must enter a locked room inside the bunker car, requiring a keycard for access. Kill any of the zombies wearing military gear found nearby—one of them will have the keycard you need.
Once you have the keycard, return to the card reader inside the bunker car to unlock the door. As you enter, you will find *The Elite* sitting on a shelf directly to your right, along with some ammo to get you started.
To the left of the room, there’s also a bottle of Old World Wine—a Legendary Valuable that sells for a good price—plus other valuable items scattered around.
### Pro Tip: Loot Respawns
Interestingly, in some players’ games, the train cars respawn their loot after some time. This means you can revisit this location to potentially pick up a second, higher-level version of *The Elite*. Doing so can save you resources since you won’t have to spend upgrade materials to keep the pistol at your level.

With *The Elite* early in your arsenal, you’ll have a strong weapon to help you survive the dangers awaiting in Dying Light: The Beast’s harsh world. Happy hunting!
