Dragon Quest Builders is all about building and crafting, and as such, apart from a few pieces of cursed equipment scattered around Tantegel, you’ll have to find the resources necessary to build the tools to survive, including your weaponry.
Our Dragon Quest Builders weapons crafting guide will take you through every weapon, what’s needed to build them, and their Attack stat. Weapons appear under the “Weapon” sub-menu for every crafting station you come across, and we’ve marked which crafting station you’ll need to visit in order to craft each specific weapon.
We have a stack of other great Dragon Quest Builders guides to help you out on your adventure. We cover the Story Mode challenges with our recipes walkthrough, and also offer armor, shields and crafting guides to ensure you have the basics covered when you set off.
