Weapon Progression Guide

Starting Weapon Choice

Your initial weapon choice cannot be changed without wiping your character. Choose wisely:

  • Broad Axe - Best for contract builds (recommended)
  • Katana - Good all-rounder
  • Gun - If committed to Gun Hunter

Weapon Tiers (Mythic Max)

Sword-class weapons can be upgraded up to Mythic tier. Higher tiers require more materials:

  • • Common → Uncommon → Rare → Mythic
  • • Dual Swords: 2× Uncommon Devil Flesh
  • • Craft at Division 2 in HQ

Weapon FAQ

Can I change my starting weapon?

No. Once selected, you must wipe your entire character to change starting weapons. This is why Broad Axe is recommended for flexibility.

Is AK-47 worth 200k?

Yes, if you're running Gun Hunter. It's about 10 optimal missions (2 hours) of farming and unlocks the strongest ranged build.

What about Fiend weapons?

Fiends cannot use human weapons. They start with Fists and unlock abilities through Fear progression instead of crafting.

Crafting Basics

Weapon crafting happens at Division 2 in HQ. You need Devil Flesh materials which can be farmed or bought at the Black Market.
