Best Weapons in Ratatan: Crafting & Upgrade Priorities

At a glance

Choose a weapon by its class, level and usable bonuses, then compare the upgrade cost. Keep a three-class formation for Big Scruffy Decorune, and weigh HP Hustle’s HP penalty against its normal-attack healing. A higher rarity alone is not a reason to replace a well-leveled weapon.

Compare the bonus you can actually use

Equipment or bonus Effect in the listed sample Best use
Big Scruffy Decorune HP +240, ATK +20; CRT +30% with at least three classes, CRT −30% with one or two Keep the class condition intact.
HP Hustle ATK +40, HP −150; normal hits have a 50% chance to absorb 5% HP Consider it for normal attacks if you can afford the HP loss.

These are equipped v1.1.11 samples. The HP basis for HP Hustle’s 5% absorption is not specified here; do not calculate a fixed heal from your maximum HP.

Two crafting candidates

Return to Rataport → Craft → Weapon Crafting. When a recipe is available, compare its preview with your equipped weapon before confirming.

Weapon Rarity Material icons and quantity Crafting preview
Yeehawler Sword Epic Purple tail ×2; blue wing ×2 HP 193 / ATK 42 / CRT 2 / WIZ 25; DEF Lv3, WIZ Lv1
Hangman’s Bow Legendary Rope ×2; horn ×2 HP 136 / ATK 50 / CRT 5 / WIZ 40; WIZ Lv3, SPD Lv2

The material descriptions identify the icons in the recipe screen. Use your menu’s tooltip for the localized item name. Crafting previews and equipped unit totals are different measurements; do not compare a fresh crafting preview directly with an equipped level 90 unit.

If the recipe is absent, check the blueprints available at Support Desk. Buy and craft according to the requirements shown for your progress.

Upgrading without losing useful gear

Weapon leveling consumes other equipment. Protect weapons you intend to keep and check the selection before confirming. The full release raises the level cap to 100; progressing past 90 uses the fourth limit-break materials.

S’word’s Slicer, Big Dekabolt and Bowregard’s Ballista are late-game options when you already own them. For example, a level 90 Bowregard’s Ballista has weapon fields of HP 667 / ATK 134 / CRT 12 / WIZ 73; the equipped unit’s totals are higher and should not be substituted for those fields.

Gem or Mythic?

Mythic equipment has its own Decorunes. Some new materials come from bosses and minibosses starting in Episode 3. Keep investing in a useful existing weapon when its level and conditions fit your squad; compare an actual replacement before switching solely for rarity.

See Gem weapon recipes for selected costs and the difference between Gem and Mythic equipment.
