Where to Find Dragon Stone
Farming Dragon Stone requires access to World 3. Break Dragon Vein nodes with a compatible pickaxe. The 1/400 drop chance means you'll want to farm in longer sessions rather than in short bursts.
Understanding the Burn Trait
The Burn trait on Dragon Stone activates whenever Dragon Stone is one of your 3 recipe ores. When active, it 20% burn for 3 seconds. Because each ore in a 3-slot recipe counts as ~33% of composition, a single Dragon Stone is enough to satisfy the 30% threshold.

Frequently Asked Questions
What weapons work best with Dragon Stone?
Fast weapons like Katanas and Daggers pair best with Dragon Stone's trait. Check the /weapons pages for detailed recommendations.
Can Dragon Stone be sold?
Yes, but it's usually not the best use. The forge value of Dragon Stone far exceeds its sell price. Save it for crafting unless you have a large surplus.
What's the best world modifier for Dragon Stone?
World 3 itself, since that's where the ore drops. Forging in World 3 also applies the local world multiplier bonus, boosting your final stats by roughly 10-20% depending on the tier.
Does Dragon Stone stack with other traits?
Trait effects are independent. Burn activates alongside any other traits that hit their 30% threshold. Multi-trait recipes are exactly how top-tier builds work.
