Crafting and Upgrades in Dying Light: The Beast
Crafting is a cornerstone of survival in The Beast. Combine scavenged parts to build more powerful melee weapons, traps, explosives, and healing items essential for enduring the city’s dangers.
Weapon durability and upgrade paths help you customize gear to fit your combat style, making preparation the key to outlasting even the toughest beasts.
Crafting Essentials and Upgrade Tips
- Collect materials like scrap metal, chemicals, wiring, and electronics from the environment.
- Forge reinforced blades to extend weapon durability while boosting damage output.
- Craft throwable explosives—pipe bombs, napalm vials, shock grenades—to control crowds or stun elite beasts.
- Lay electrified or spike traps at choke points to thin incoming waves before they reach you.
- Install tiered mods on weapons and armor to adapt to escalating threats—bleed, burn, shock, or durability boosters.
- Balance offensive and defensive upgrades for a versatile load-out able to handle any encounter.
