List of battle equipment in Dragon Quest Builders 2

This article is about descriptions of equippable equipment in Dragon Quest Builders 2. For player customization at a dressing table, see Character customization in Dragon Quest Builders 2.

The following list includes all available weapons, armour, and clothing available to the Builder (+ NPCs) and Malroth in Dragon Quest Builders 2.

Weapons

All weapons can be crafted at an anvil.

Builder's weapons

With the exception of the poison needle and the sword of ruin, all Builder's weapons are also able to be given to certain story-relevant NPCs and Explorer's shores recruits with the description of "soldier" on the Residents' register. All soldiers from Moonbrooke have a copper sword by default. The following story-relevant NPCs are able to be given weapons:

• Bonanzo
• Britney
• Clayton
• Babs
• Den
• Dougie (eventually)
• Digby (eventually)
• Magrog
• Ordelia
• Serge
• Anessa
• Warwick
• Gerome
• Zara

All one-star and three-star weapons (except the falcon blade line) have unique attack patterns, where on the third attack in the sequence it appears purple and the attack is a forward strike instead of sweeping. Notably, the dragonsbane is worn on the hand instead of held in the hand.
