7DS Origin Weapon Crafting Guide (March 23, 2026): Best SSR Weapons & Meliodas Endgame Build

Updated for Day 3 of global launch — your complete guide to weapon crafting, SSR progression, Meliodas DPS builds, and efficient farming.


🧰 Overview: Why Weapon Crafting Matters

At launch, weapon gacha has been removed, and all weapons are now obtained through crafting and farming systems.

This makes crafting the core progression system in Seven Deadly Sins: Origin, especially for unlocking SSR (5★) power spikes early.

⚒️ Weapon Crafting Basics (Day 3 Reality)

📌 Weapon Proficiency System (IMPORTANT)

Weapons are not generic types — they are tied to character proficiencies, meaning each weapon directly affects skills, scaling, and combat style.

For example:

  • Meliodas uses:
    • Longsword
    • Axe
    • Dual Swords

👉 This connects directly to the game’s core combat mechanic:

🔹 How SSR Weapon Crafting Works

To craft an SSR weapon, you need:

  • SSR Blueprint (crafted from fragments)
  • Platinum Ore (main bottleneck)
  • Gold Ore (support material)
  • Boss-specific drops (e.g., Dragon materials)
  • High-level workbench

Blueprint System:

  • Combine fragments into a full SSR blueprint
  • Use crafting materials to unlock the weapon

💡 Key Insight:
SSR weapons provide bigger early power spikes than armor, so prioritize them first.


⚡ Hidden Power Spike: Multi-Weapon Scaling (Day 3 Insight)

One of the biggest mistakes players are making right now is ignoring secondary weapon slots.

Each character can equip up to three weapons, and even when not active, these weapons still contribute stats to your build.

Why this matters:

  • Empty slots = lost stats (massive DPS loss)
  • Even weaker SSR weapons still boost your total power
  • Crafting multiple SSR weapons is more valuable than over-investing in one

💡 Takeaway:
Don’t stop at one weapon — your 2nd and 3rd slots are a huge hidden power spike.

🗡️ Best Weapon: Gluttonous Soul Longsword (SSR)

Confirmed top weapon for Meliodas:

Why it’s meta:

  • Boosts Darkness damage after skills
  • Strong scaling with burst builds
  • Works as a stat stick even across builds

🔥 Crafting Requirements

  • Platinum Ore ×30
  • Dragon’s Fire Sack (Corrupted Dragon boss)
  • Basic materials (wood, adhesive, etc.)

Best Farming Difficulty:

  • Nightmare → best efficiency per run
  • Hell → higher rewards but slower

🔥 Meliodas Rotation 

Optimal DPS Combo:

  1. Abyssal Dash → activates Haste
  2. Spam E Skill → cooldown resets during burst
  3. Switch to support (Jericho) → trigger Elemental Burst
  4. Swap back → Meliodas burst damage
  5. Use Ultimate during Burst → massive damage spike

💡 This rotation enables:

  • Fast boss clears (Red Demon, Dragon, Gila)
  • Continuous burst uptime

❄️ Hidden Meta: Jericho SSR Synergy

From expert testing:

  • SSR engraved gear allows Jericho to:
    • Fill burst gauge extremely fast
    • Enable near-instant burst cycles
  • Back attacks significantly increase burst gain

👉 Result:

  • Faster rotations
  • More Meliodas uptime
  • Easier boss clears

💡 This combo is currently one of the strongest early endgame setups.

🪙 Core Resources

Resource Priority Why
