Since Dying Light: Definitive Edition comes with the 26 DLC packs of the original game, there are plenty of blueprints for players to find and use. Due to the high amount, players might wonder which ones are the best, and ones that are worth investing in.
10 Poison Blast
The Poison Blast modification is a blueprint that can be applied to axes, pickaxes, and sledgehammers. The application of Poison Blast will provide the player with a deadly weapon that has medium effects of both toxic and bleeding, specific to a two-handed weapon.
This blueprint can be found in Old Town. It is located by a white truck that isn’t carrying anything and has a side compartment with the modification inside. To build this blueprint, players will need 2 Metal Parts, 1 Alcohol, 1 Nail, 2 Blades, 2 Aerosol, and 1 Electronics.
9 Tesla Shield
Despite having a grey rarity, the Tesla Shield is certainly more useful than it may seem. After unlocking the Shield Crafting Skill, players will be able to stop the hordes from trying to take chunks of flesh from their skin. Not only can it block attacks, but its special effect electrocutes enemies when activated, allowing for players to take a quick breather and regain space against their enemies.
8 Burning Throwing Stars
What makes Burning Throwing Stars so effective, is how cheap they are to craft, and the large quantity players receive upon crafting. These stars travel at a fast speed and are great at making short work of enemies, alive or dead. Not to mention, they burn any enemy that it hits. It’s a great thing to love about Dying Light.

The special effect of the Burning Throwing Stars makes it well worth the journey to get it. Players must unlock the Elemental Throwing Stars skill, and then they will be able to set anyone ablaze with one throw. As long as they have 1 Blade, 1 Gauze, and 1 Aerosol.
7 Volatile Hunter Baton
What makes the Volatile Hunter Baton such a great blueprint is its accessibility. With Dying Light: Definitive Edition, the Volatile Hunter Baton will be available right at the beginning, thanks to it being part of a DLC pack. It applies medium electricity and burning effects to the following items: picks, hatchets, crowbars, wrenches, bats, police batons, hammers, and military shovels.
This blueprint can be a great starting modification for new players. It can be used on a multitude of many different weapon types, and also doesn’t require a lot of tools to craft. Players need 2 Metal Parts, 2 Chemicals, and 1 Electronics.
6 Leaping Tiger Dao
As part of the Shu Warrior Bundle DLC, the Leaping Tiger Dao blueprint will be available at the start of the game for Dying Light: Definitive Edition players. This modification doesn’t add any elemental effects, but this comes as a great alternative. The Leaping Tiger Dao gives players a damage boost after successful consecutive hits.
If players have a short sword, a long knife, scythe, machete, sickle, blade, or cleaver, then they can use this modification. 4 Metal Parts, 2 String, and 3 Blades are the requirements to craft the blueprint onto one of their weapons, thus turning any weapon into a lethal and sharp sword.
5 Medkits
Although weaponry is an absolute necessity for survival in Dying Light’s harsh world of monsters consisting of both humans and infected, being able to fight the hordes would be useless if the player is dead. This is why the medkit craftable utility is a useful blueprint.
The Medkit blueprint only needs 1 Alcohol and 1 Gauze to heal 100 health. Players can also take the Skill “Crafting Expertise” to craft 2 medkits at once instead of just 1. By continuing to craft medkits, players will ensure their survival.
4 All-In-One
This weapon blueprint is titled correctly since it is literally an “All-in-one”. The weapon modification combines edged weapons with medium toxic and electricity effects. It can be applied to blades, handsaws, khopeshes, long swords, short swords, machetes, and scythes. Players that decide to “Be the Zombie” should fear this one.

There will be a stone tower located in Old Town, found just before the stone bridge in the North-western area. The blueprint can be found inside the tower. Players will need 2 Metal Parts, 2 Duct Tape, 1 Alcohol, 4 Toxic Lichen, 2 Batteries, and 2 Electronics.
3 Toxic Reaper
This blueprint is useful on blades, handsaws, khopeshes, long swords, short swords, machetes, scythes, and sickles. The abundance of weaponry to which Toxic Reaper can be applied is one of the reasons that it is so useful. The modification also applies toxic and bleeding effects, at a medium rate.
When players reach Old Town, they can find a tunnel that is noted for having a parachute next to it and being next to a police van. From this tunnel, players will find a yellow van that has the blueprint inside. To make use of the toxic reaper, players will need 2 Metal Parts, 1 Duct Tape, 1 Nail, 2 Blades, 2 Aerosol, and 1 Electronics.
2 Angel Sword
“This’ll put the fear of God in anything it hits!” reads the in-game description for the Angel Sword blueprint. Applying medium electricity and burning effect on blades, handsaws, khopeshes, long swords, short swords, machetes, and scythes, this weapon is truly one to fear for its versatility and power.
This blueprint is received as a reward after completing the last quest in Rupert’s questline, Troll. To begin this quest, players need to head to Harran University, the same location as the Quartermaster. Players will need the following crafting items: 2 Metal Parts, 2 Duct Tapes, 2 Aerosol, 2 Batteries, 2 Power Cables, and 1 Electronics. Demolishers won’t be such a challenge now.
1 God Hammer
The item description for the God Hammer speaks of having “lightning, like Zeus… and fire, like Hephaestus…” Truly making this modification one of godly accomplishments. It is as powerful as any mod. To create this blueprint, players will need to apply it to an axe, hammer, hatchet, pickaxe, or sledgehammer. It bolsters medium electricity and burning effects.
Players can find the God Hammer blueprint during the Chasing Past quest, in which they will find themselves in Old Town inside a cannibal’s workshop. The requirements for the God Hammer are as follows: 2 Metal Parts, 2 String, 2 Aerosol, 2 Batteries, 2 Power Cables, and 1 Electronics.
Dying Light is available now for PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One.
