Granblue Fantasy Relink requires you to upgrade your weapons, as you’ll often be facing deadly enemies. In order for that to happen, you’ll need to collect upgrade materials, such as Dragon Scale. It’s a rare drop that you’ll receive from the Ancient Dragon after defeating it. Before you can face the Dragon, you’ll need to grind and make yourself a worthy opponent. That’s why this enemy only appears after you’ve completed the main story missions. Finding and fighting the Ancient Dragon can feel like a daunting task at first, which is why we’re here to help you through it.

In this guide, we'll explain where to find the Ancient Dragon and get the Dragon Scale in Granblue Fantasy Relink. That being said, take a look below to find out what you need to do.

To get the Dragon Scale, you must defeat the Ancient Dragon in the Wings of Antiquity quest. It is a "Very Hard" quest, so you must complete the main story quest and reach the Veteran Skyfarer Rank to unlock it. Once you have unlocked the Wings of Antiquity, you can start it by interacting with the Quest Counter.

This quest takes place in the Halewind Altar area where you have 30 minutes to defeat the Ancient Dragon. However, to get the Dragon Scale in Granblue Fantasy Relink, you need to defeat the Ancient Dragon in less than 8 minutes. You can also get an Ancient Hollowpoint (weapon upgrade material) if you manage to defeat it in less than 4 minutes.
