Summary

Obtain powerful weapons by vanquishing dragons, NPCs, or exploring, leveraging unique abilities and perks. Weapons offer bonuses like freezing/chilling effects, critical rate boosts, and specialized skills for diverse playstyles.

However, certain weapons stand out due to their unique abilities, skill boosts, or impressive damage output. This guide highlights some of the most powerful weapons in this RPG.
