How to get weapons
In one sentence: Farm the right dungeon → keep the materials → talk to the right NPC → then power the weapon with upgrades and Weapon Level.
Quick version
- Find your row on the ladder below.
- Meet level / Dragon Rank / Gear Score (check the teleporter).
- Farm the source and keep the materials.
- Exchange at the NPC listed (amounts are in the tables).
- Power it up: Upgrade Systems.
If an NPC cost looks different after a patch, trust the NPC window in-game.

Cloak vs weapon vs +upgrade (don't mix them up)
| I want… | Who / where |
|---|---|
| Cloak stages | [Dragon Chip Dealer] Jeff — Dragon Cloak |
| Bloody Dragon craft | Ice Lord [Weapon Exchanger] |
| Weapon boxes / tokens | Dragon Quest Steward Drago |
| Obsidian armor boxes | Hiroshi |
| Fragment materials | Ernst |
| Sealed weapons | Master Jo (+ Shadow Citadel) |
| Normal + on gear | Your inventory + Oricalkum — not Crafting |
Power it up after you get it
- +upgrade toward +10 (use protection on hard rolls).
- Pierce + cards if allowed.
- Element.
- Awake.
- Raise Weapon Level by using the weapon + dusting spares.
Don't mess this up
- Don’t trade your only good weapon for Dragon Weapon Treasure without a plan.
- Crimson Cave needs Dragon Rank 50 and Gear Score 6200 after level 150 — not “level 50.”
- Obsidian / Shadow entry numbers: always read the teleporter.
