Dying Light 2 is filled with hours upon hours of side quests for players to complete across Villedor, but "The Ultimate Weapon" has to be one of the more infuriating quests to complete. With the promise of rewarding Aiden with the ultimate weapon, a Monk living among the Survivors entices players with tales of a powerful weapon in Dying Light 2. For the price of 200 Old World Money, the Monk sends Aiden off on a side quest to travel across several rooftops to find the ultimate weapon.
Before players can even speak with the Monk, they'll have to complete the jumping Windmill Puzzle in Dying Light 2 that is located in the northwest area of Horseshoe. Once the Willow Windmill power has been restored and the Survivors have constructed a safe area, the Monk will be located beside the cabbage garden. Initially, he'll charge Aiden all of the Old World Money that players have collected, but Aiden's harsh tone quickly works the Monk's price down to the 200 Old World Money mentioned above.
Once Aiden accepts the side quest, he'll be tasked with searching through two chests that are within 300m of the Monk's location. Reaching both of these chests requires a serious amount of parkour skills and stamina, so this side quest may best be saved for a postgame activity in Dying Light 2 once players have completed the main story. The Monk assures Aiden that one of the chests has the ultimate weapon inside of it, but he can't recall which chest is the correct one. One of these chests is located on top of the building that is Jack and Joe's Bandit Camp, while the other is atop of the Viaduct in the area.
How To Complete The Ultimate Weapon In Dying Light 2
It doesn't matter which of the two chests Aiden goes for first, though the chest above Jack and Joe's Bandit Camp is much closer. By navigating the sloped platforms around the outside of the building, along with other parkour structures, players will be able to easily reach the top of the building. Using the Dying Light 2 parkour skills, Aiden will need to swing across multiple monkey bars to reach the top of Jack and Joe's bandit camp building, and swing from a couple of ropes in order to reach the top of the Viaduct.
After opening both chests, return to the Monk with the ultimate weapon "in hand" and finish the dialogue with either option to complete "The Ultimate Weapon" side quest in Dying Light 2. Aiden can either attempt to get his money back, or leave the Monk and never see him again. Regardless of the decision, players will earn 750 Parkour Points as well.
Dying Light 2: Stay Human is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
