Recipes are used in the Dragon Quest Builders 2 crafting system. Recipes are needed to craft new items and equipment.

The Builder will either invent these recipes on their own, or a secondary character will give the Builder the idea for a new recipe. The player can not create something without a recipe, even if the player knows the materials required to make the item.

Each recipe requires a certain number of materials. The player will receive various materials by either; killing enemies, breaking objects, opening chests, growing them, or receive them from NPCs.
