03. Introduction D3000
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Prior to my purchase of Drakengard, I had played a few Dynasty Warriors

titles and found them rather interesting. As a result, when this game was
released, I immediately considering buying it but waited for quite some time
to do so. Fortunately, the game is quite well done and boasts a veritable
cornucopia in terms of weaponry. It should be noted that Drakengard is not
what one would term a typical console RPG, it closely resembles an action
game like Dynasty Warriors but incorporates an almost trivial leveling system
for characters and a more important one for weapons.
Due to the significant role of the weapons in Drakengard, a comprehensive

understanding of said weapons will be tremendously useful for knowing which
weapons one ought to train and which to avoid. This is based on a purely
subjective level and the ultimate decision is your own.
I hope that this guide provides aid to those that seek it. Questions and
comments can be emailed to me at the address above. Please do not ask me a
question if it is explicitly answered in this document. Thank you.

04. Weaponry Declassification D4000
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The weapons of Drakengard are loosely classified into eight major groups
that encompass a total of 65 weapons, sixty-four of which must be unlocked by
some method, which will be mentioned when necessary, and one weapon, Caim's
Sword, is the default.
When a weapon is first obtained, it will be at level 1 and require a

certain number of kills in order to reach the next level. The maximum level
for any given weapon is four. The number of kills is not affected by the
difficulty of the enemies defeated or experience obtained, only the pure
number of kills is of concern. Therefore it is preferable to fight hundreds
of weak enemies rather than hundreds of more difficult ones. You can also
level the weapons on the Easy difficulty setting with no ramifications.
However, certain weapons require a Normal difficulty setting in order to be
unlocked but those will be mentioned later.
Weapon Levels
===================
Each gained level will guarantee an increase in attack power and number
of combo hits for a given weapon. Additionally, other possible increases may
occur in weight or a modest increase in reach (although the given value will
not change, the actual attack range may increase very slightly.) Another
paragraph of the Weapon History will also be available upon each level-up.
Since only the number of kills is used for calculating weapon level-ups,
it is useful to know when they can occur. Weapons only level, meaning you
can only see them level, after a battle in which their "Next Level" kills
count is equal to zero. After said battle, the weapon will be shown to
increase in level and the appropriate increases in attack strength and combo
hit number are shown at this time as well. Additionally, kills DO carry over.
This simply means that if a weapon is below a level of 3 and its "Next Level"
kills count is zero and additional enemies are killed with the weapon, the
extraneous kills will subtract from the NEXT LEVEL's "Next Level" kill count.
For example, suppose there exists a weapon called "Time Scar" that has
a "Next Level" kill count of zero. Assume it is currently at level 1. This
means that the weapon can reach level 2 once the stage is complete (you MUST
complete the stage, you cannot exit it prematurely).
Suppose the following:
Time Scar's Level 1 "Next Level" kill count initially: 400
Time Scar's Level 1 "Next Level" kill count after stage: 0
Time Scar's Level 2 "Next Level" kill count initially: 500
Time Scar's Level 2 "Next Level" kill count after stage: 460
Now if 40 extra kills were made with Time Scar at level 1 AFTER its
"Next Level," these would be subtracted from its initial level 2 "Next Level"
kill count. Then Time Scar's Level 2 "Next Level" kill count would be 460.
From this we can deduce that each weapon has a total number of kills necessary
to max said weapon. The intermediate levels are relatively arbitrary except
that they trigger level changes in the weapons.
Weapon Leveling Methods

=============================
As stated, weapons level by attaining a certain number of kills for the

weapon. Therefore, maps with many weak enemies are preferable for this task.
Here is a short list of maps with many weak enemies:
01. Chapter 01, Verse 02
02. Chapter 01, Verse 08
03. Castle of the Goddess, Castle Environs [Free Expedition]
I suggest leveling on the Easy difficulty since it will make the process
that much faster. Utilize dash attacks on large groups of enemies. Think of
it as bowling and aim for a strike. You can almost always kill a group of
eight weak soldiers with one dash attack with a moderately strong weapon.
Magic can also be very useful, especially if it has a large range or is

target-seeking. Any kills due to a magic attack WILL count toward the weapon
that you currently have equipped, not necessarily the one that caused the
magic to take place. Therefore, one could use a weapon like Windsinger to
produce a magic attack that surrounds Caim for a duration of time, switch to
another weapon and proceed to kill enemies with the magic attack still around
Caim. All those kills will go to the alternate weapon, not to Windsinger
since Windsinger is not currently equipped.
Weapon Attributes
=======================
There exist seven data displayed on the weapon menu screens: Attack
Strength, Sharpness, Reach, Weight, Material, Combo Hits, and Next Level.
Finishing blows, chain attacks, and dash attacks will be explained as well.
Attack Strength:
---------------
Attack Strength clearly indicates the amount of damage a weapon can deal
though the number given is not necessarily the exact point value of the
damage dealt. The higher the attack strength of a weapon, the higher the
estimated mean damage output.
Sharpness:
---------
Sharpness seems to give some indication as to how the weapon is wielded.
Sharp weapons tend to slash and stab more than blunt ones, whereas large,
blunt weapons have smashing and sweeping attacks. Sharp weapons are also
less likely to knock enemies over since they will slice through them with
little resistance. Blunt and Edged weapons knock over opponents very often.
Reach:
-----
Reach is just the attack range of a weapon, however the classifications
for reach represent a range of values, therefore a sword with "Long"
reach may actually have a slightly smaller reach than another sword of
"Long" reach, but both will be in the range for a "Long" reach. For example,
the long sword Moonfire actually has a slightly longer reach than
Slaughterism despite the fact that both of them have a "Long" reach.
Weight:
------
Weight effects the speed with which a weapon is wielded. Obviously,
heavier weapons are slower than smaller, light ones.
Material:
--------
This does not seem to objectively effect anything of importance.
Combo Hits:
----------
Indicates the number of successive attacks that can be made until a small
pause must be taken. The higher the number the better usually.
Next Level:
----------
The number of kills needed to reach the next weapon level. See the above
"Weapon Levels" section for specific information regarding this topic.
Finishing Blows:
---------------
Finishing blows occur when a weapon is swung and a small golden glow
appears on the weapon mid-swing. At that time, if the Triangle (T) button is
pressed then a mighty blow is delivered either as a circular blast or a
projectile. These finishing blows occur at different strokes for each
specific weapon, so one can simply memorize when they occur for a weapon and
always land them. Note that the closer to the maximum number of combo hits
you are for a particular weapon, the more powerful the finishing blow. For
example, a finishing blow on the seventh stroke of a combo (NOT a chain) will
be more powerful than one on the first stroke. You can practice finishing
blows without the presence of enemies if needed.
These extra-powerful attacks also carry a distinct lag time before their
execution. Not only will the stroke itself take longer, it will only take
effect two strokes after triangle is pressed. For example, if the finishing
blow pattern for a weapon is 1,3,6,10 and the triangle button is pressed on
after the first square button, the finishing blow will take effect on the
third stroke.
Chain Attacks:
-------------
Not to be confused with Combo Hits, Chain Attacks are counted by the game
whenever you attack an enemy. The small counter in the left-hand corner will
count your chain number thus far. As far as I know, there isn't any hard
cap on the chain you can get, but this depends entirely on the user's skill.
The benefit of chain attacks is that it can yield healing and destruction
orbs at certain levels of the chain: 17, 36, 57, 77, 100, 150. Healing orbs
are the first to appear in increasing increments. At a chain of 100, a black
orb will appear that increases your current attack strength for a period of
time. If your health is full at the point that a healing orb should appear,
then a large red orb will appear that will explode and deal damage to your
enemies equivalent to a strike from your weapon. Even the red orbs become
stronger at higher chain counts. Note that on the Easy difficulty, orbs
appear earlier in the chain and red orbs NEVER appear.
Since the chain count increases whenever you hit an enemy and whenever
you kill an enemy, it is easiest to maintain a high chain count with a quick,
weak weapon. However, all enemies have a counterattack ability that will
make them invincible for a few seconds, allowing them to hit you once. They
will flash blue just before this happens, so dodge it.
Dash Attacks:
------------
Dash Attacks are performed when Caim is sprinting and the attack button
is pressed. This will cause him to perform a piercing, outward strike that
can deal impressive damage and has surprising range. The alternative is to
jump as Caim is sprinting and press the attack button to cause an explosive
all direction attack with smaller range than the horizontal strike. These are
very effective against groups of weak enemies.
Weapon Nomenclature and Declassification

==============================================
The eight major groups of weapons are sometimes inadequate for describing
a particular weapon. Below is a list of the eight groups and the different
types of weapons they contain:
Sword: short swords, daggers, knives, chakram, machetes

Long Sword: long swords, broad swords, great-swords, katanas, nodachis
Spear: spears, jousting spears, tridents, spades, lances
Staff: scepters, staves
Axe: axes, great axes
Pole Axe: pole axes, halberds, bardiches, scythes
Mace: maces, clubs
Hammer: hammers, war hammers
As noted, many weapon types are classified in one group to save space.

05. Weapon Profiles D5000
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This section will deal with very in-depth, comprehensive profiles of

every weapon available in the game. Spoilers abound, so be careful of what
you read. If you only want to know where to find particular weapons, please
consult the appropriate "Quick Reference" list. Note that there are not any
storyline spoilers, just weaponry-related ones.
Each profile will contain information about a weapon at each level of its
evolution along with specific weapon histories. Author comments will be noted
in the "Comments" paragraph of each profile.
Below is a sample of what a single weapon profile will look like. Note
that the sample weapon is not in the game.

If some of the above seems confusing, consult the appropriate numbers

next to the questionable fields and match them with the ones below.
(1) Name of the weapon as it appears in the game.

(2) Name of the magic attack the weapon grants the user.
(3) Various flags that may or may not appear. Consult the flag legend for
information on particular flag meanings.
(4) Unique search string given to a weapon to allow for quick access.
(5) The Weapon History text as shown in the game weapon menus. Each paragraph
break is identical to that of the in-game paragraph break.
(6) Weapon status as shown in the game weapon menus. However, there are some
key differences. If values are split by a "/" marker, then this divides
values between levels. In the above sample, the attack strength at level
1 is 43, at level 2 it is 54, at level 3 it is 67 and so on.
(7) Weapon information as shown on the game weapon menus.
(8) Magic information as shown on the game weapon menus. For this example,
since the magic only becomes more powerful and does not increase in time
duration nor number of strikes, the magic description is the same for all
levels of the attack.
(9) The information needed to obtain the particular weapon. From this example
one can see that it is only possible to obtain the weapon on Normal
difficulty.
(10) The stroke numbers at which finishing blows are possible. In the example
above, finishing blows can occur on the 1st, 24th, 55th, and 120th
strikes of the weapon.
(11) Number of green dots (MP) used to perform a Level 1,2,3,4 magic attack.
Note that all weapons can perform a Level 1 magic attack even if the
weapon is at Level 4. The exceptions are magic attacks that have equal
MP consumption for all levels or don't use the 5,10,15,20 scheme.
(12) Author comments about the weapon and/or magic attack.
-= Flag Legend =-
---------------------
F01
<A> = Weapon's magic attack is explosive, each strike lasting only seconds.
 = Finishing blow produces a large, explosive, circular blast around Caim.
<C> = Weapon's magic attack's area of effect is around Caim in a circle.
<D> = Weapon's magic attack lasts for a set duration of time. This is
inherent with both <G> and <S> type magics. Any time under 5 seconds
is considered explosive.
<E> = Weapon can be obtained on Easy Difficulty. In this case, the weapon
can also be unlocked on Normal and this will not be indicated.
<G> = Weapon's magic attack spins around Caim and widens gradually in a gyre.
<H> = Weapon's magic attack heals Caim.
 = Weapon's magic attack causes self-inflicted damage to Caim.
<N> = Weapon is unlockable ONLY on Normal Difficulty.
<O> = Weapon's magic attack's area of effect surrounds Caim in a non-circular

formation.
 = Finishing blow produces a single projectile that thrusts forward away
from Caim.
<R> = Weapon's magic attack shoots outward directly away from Caim. Some
magic attacks of this kind may be target-seeking at higher levels.
<S> = Weapon's magic attack spins around or exists only around Caim for a
duration of time.
<T> = Weapon's magic attack is target-seeking. This may only take effect
at higher levels of the attack.
<W> = Weapon's magic attack protects Caim by reducing damage directly.
<X> = Weapon's magic attack produces strikes depending on Caim's viewing

direction.
<Y> = Weapon's magic attack alters Caim's attack power.
<Z> = Weapon's magic attack alters Caim's speed of movement.

] Comments: This is the largest, slowest, strongest weapon in the game. As
] a result, it is also very useful. Although I would avoid using

well. The list is split between three different categories.
Legend:

*Note: Traverse the rooms in chronological order.
The easiest way to get to final destination, "O" on the 5th Floor, is to
simply sprint there and avoid fighting any enemies. The implication here is
that none of the enemies will attack you--except they will. Hence, the best
method of transportation, excepting the dragon, is to run at full speed while
experiencing the effect of a Level 4 "Breath of Sleipner" which Soldier's
Sword can allow Caim to cast. Level this sword to level 4 before trying this
level if you're going to use it.
Firstly, you will start in room (1), immediately run to room (2) and kill
the weak enemies with Soldier's Sword until you have 20 MP. Activate the
magic attack once you are barely in room (3) and RUN to room (6). The magic
will still have effect on the next level so prepare to RUN again...

There are two options now: 1) Run and try to get as far as you can
with the remaining magical haste, 2) Kill enemies in room (1) until you have
full magic again and reactivate the magical haste.
It's up to you to choose one, either way DO NOT get caught in hallway (4)
because the red spiked-shield enemies will trap you. If you have magical
haste on, just hug the wall and run forward and you should get through without
a scratch. If you become trapped, quickly summon your ally and use their
magic over and over and kill whatever you need to in order to reach room (5).
Kill EVERYONE in room (5) to get Devilscale to appear. I can usually do this
in under 3 minutes but you only need to do this in under 5 minutes.

07. Weapon Wheel Configurations D7000
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This section contains a variety of different configurations for the

Weapon Wheel, each designed to meet a specific taste or purpose. If you wish
to offer a configuration to me, simply email it to the address at the top of
the document. Please give your configuration a name as well. You will be
credited appropriately.
Weapon slot numbers merely indicate which weapons will be next to each
other. Since the menu is a wheel, this also makes weapon placement on the
wheel relatively trivial, but it is a method of organizing the configurations
and is used only as such.
You must provide a brief, or extended, explanation of your choices.
001. / Personal Favorite /
01. Hymir's Finger

02. Kingsblood
03. Moonfire
04. Takamasa
05. Swordsmasher
06. Guardian's Sorrow
07. Soldier's Sword
08. Fheng's Glaive
The first four on this list are used mainly for their powerful physical
attacks. Hymir's Finger is excellent for crowd clearing especially if the
enemies are very weak and have limited range. Kingsblood, Moonfire, and
Takamasa are all very powerful and have fast attacks. Kingsblood is the
fastest of the three listed. Swordsmasher's magic attack is useful if you
need to be invincible and have increased attack power. Guardian's Sorrow's
healing magic is invaluable as is Soldier's Sword's magic. Fheng's Glaive is
a strong, quick weapon with a nice area magic attack.

08. Top Ten's D8000
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This section contains a few Top Ten lists that may be of use for those
seeking that sort of thing. Lists can be submitted to me at my email address
if you so desire. You will be properly credited for any contribution(s).
Unless otherwise specified, all weapons in the lists are at Level 4. If ties
occur, lists may exceed ten which is acceptable within limits. Do not make a
list of every weapon in the game. In the case of such ties, nomenclature
takes precedence and alphabetically first weapons will be first.
You must provide at least a brief explanation of your choices IF and

ONLY IF the data is NOT objective.
001. / Attack Strength /
01. Hymir's Finger : 62

02. Balberith's Tears : 54
