The Dragonforged can be found in theBay Wayside Shrine, which is north of Bakbattahl, and he’ll only sell you the following weapons for Wyrmslife Crystals, which you obtain by slaying drakes.
The following table shows the names of the weapons, their weapon type, their associated vocations, and their Wyrmslife Crystal cost.
Note that the Warfarer is not listed as a vocation on this table, because the Warfarer is a jack-of-all-trades class that uses weapons from all other vocations.
While Dragonforged weapons might be renowned for their strength, there are plenty of regular weapons that are more than worthy of serving as your Arisen’s main means of fighting. You don’t need to endlessly grind for Wyrmslife Crystals to obtain these stellar options, but they do require you to either have lots of gold and Seeker’s Tokens, or in some cases to unearth locked chests in dungeons.
The following table shows the names of the best regular weapons, their weapon type, their associated vocations, their location, and their cost in gold (G) or Seeker Tokens. Some of these weapons can only be purchased inNew Game +, and we’ve added a note when this is the case. There are three options for each vocation, except for the Fighter, who gets five due to their ability to use shields.
Like our previous table, the Warfarer is not listed here, because they can technically use all of these weapons.
