How to Craft Weapons¶
Crafting is done at any Shrine once you’ve acquired the recipe. This won’t be available to you until you get the 
Twin Serpents Staff recipe upon defeating the 
Whiteclad Noble boss in Chapter 1. As you progress through the game and unlock more recipes, you’ll either unlock an upgrade to an existing weapon tree, or you’ll unlock a new weapon tree altogether.
To find the upgrades, expand a weapon (some can’t be upgraded), select the upgrade, and you’ll find what materials you need to craft it. Some materials will be shown as ???? but you can check the weapon in the lists below to find out what they are. Once you have the recipe, the required materials, and the currency for it, you can craft the weapon.
(1 of 4) At a Shrine, select “Craft” followed by “Craft Weapons”.
