The EX weapons from Yakuza Likes a Dragon are the final upgrade for the weapons wielded by your character Ichiban and his entourage of randos he can recruit off the streets.

To get any weapon upgrades into an EX variant is a laborious task that takes grinding for millions of yen and rare ingredients required for each specific weapon type.

Just to get started, you need to spend over twenty million yen on the Romance Workshop that lets you upgrade your gear. From then on, the list of resources only grows in number, and to make even one EX weapon, you'll need to invest a lot of time into the most profitable minigames, as well as search and shop for the extremely rare resources used in crafting them.

All this extra work may not seem worth it, but while the game won't mention this to you, combining the right EX weapons with their corresponding profession and elemental damage makes a tremendous difference when taking on the Millennium Towers in the final parts of the game.

With the EX weapons in your hands, earning all of the achievements for Like a Dragon is a walk in the park.
