What is the Dragon Tooth Blade?
The Dragon Tooth Blade is a weapon in the free-to-play MMORPG Metin2 by Gameforge AG. The name references the characteristic dragon theme that runs through many high-end items in the game. In the international Metin2 community, the weapon is known by various localised names – including Drachenzahnklinge (German), Lama Dente di Drago (Italian), Klinga Smoczego Kła (Polish) and Lâmina Dente de Dragão (Portuguese). This shows that the weapon exists in virtually all European server versions of the game and is therefore one of the widely known items across the board.
In Metin2, weapons are fundamentally differentiated by class. Before you actively search for or farm the Dragon Tooth Blade, it's important to know which class it's intended for – because weapons in Metin2 are class-bound.
Classes and Weapons in Metin2
Metin2 distinguishes weapons by five playable classes:
- Warrior – Melee specialist with swords, axes and two-handed weapons
- Sura – Magical-physical hybrid with blades and staves
- Ninja – Fast class with daggers and bows
- Shaman – Support class with fans and hammers
- Lycan – Transformation class with unique weapon types
Since the Dragon Tooth Blade is a blade, it's primarily suitable for classes that can equip this weapon type – principally Warriors and Suras. Depending on the exact game version and server status, availability may vary. Always check in the character menu whether the weapon can be equipped by your class.

Tips for Farming and Trading
Since Metin2 is a dynamic game and drops as well as prices change with every update, the following general strategies apply to obtaining rare weapons like the Dragon Tooth Blade:
- Farm monsters: Dragon-themed weapons often drop from thematically matching enemies or in dungeons that belong to dragon content. Keep an eye out for corresponding areas in your level range.
- Traders and player market: In the Metin2 shop system, you can buy directly from other players. Compare prices across different market channels before making a purchase.
- Use events: Gameforge regularly runs events where rare weapons are available as rewards or with increased drop rates.
- Guilds and community: Experienced players in your guild often know where specific items are currently most efficiently farmed. Ask actively.
Upgrading and Improving Weapons
Like all weapons in Metin2, the Dragon Tooth Blade can be improved via the game's standard upgrade system. Metin2 offers several mechanics for this:
- Smithy (enhancement): Using enhancement stones and Yang, you can raise the weapon to higher plus levels (+1 to +9 and beyond).
- Bonus system: Weapons can receive up to two bonuses that affect their attack values, speed or other attributes.
- Weapon set templates: The game offers set templates (weapon set template) that allow you to deliberately create specific bonus configurations – helpful if you're aiming for an optimal PvP or PvE setup.
- Horse book: With the weapon horse book, you can also optimise weapons for mounted combat – relevant for players who spend a lot of time fighting on horseback.
Generally speaking: only upgrade weapons heavily if you're sure you'll use them long-term. High plus levels cost considerable resources and can be lost if an upgrade fails, unless you use protection.
Dragon Tooth Blade in PvP and PvE
Choosing the right weapon always depends on your playstyle and preferred content. For PvE use (dungeons, monster farming), a high base damage weapon with matching attack bonus is ideal. In PvP, however, additional bonuses like hit chance, strength or special resistance negation play a larger role.
Since blades in Metin2 are designed for Warriors and Suras, it's worth checking out the skill guides for these classes – in particular, the weapon Sura skill guide provides concrete recommendations on which weapon maximises damage in which build.
