Acquiring more powerful weapons is a key part of progression in Hytale, because as players venture into new biomes and more dangerous zones, they will face stronger and stronger foes. The key to survival is readiness, and upgrading weapons is a crucial step.

Like Minecraft, weapons in Hytale cannot be directly upgraded. The only way to get a better weapon is to craft one anew. Additionally, unlike the crude weapons that can be crafted straight from your inventory, higher-tier weapons can only be made at a dedicated crafting station. This guide covers how to make a weapon upgrade station, all weapon types, and all the materials required to craft them.
