Disassemble Weapons for Other Weapons
In Kaiju No. 8 The Game's Weapon Exchange, you can disassemble weapons obtained from the Gacha to get "Refinement Crystals," which can then be used to exchange for other Gacha weapons. This can be done in the "Weapon Exchange" tab in the Shop.
How to Disassemble Weapons
1. Tap Disassemble

You can disassemble weapons from the menu in the upper right of the home screen > Storage. To disassemble a weapon, first tap "Disassemble" in the lower left of the Storage screen.
2. Select a Weapon and Disassemble It

Select a weapon, tap the "Disassemble" button in the bottom right, then tap OK to complete the process. Note that disassembled weapons cannot be restored, so be careful.
3. Obtain Refinement Crystals

By disassembling 5-Star weapons obtained from the Gacha, you can get Kaijumite III and "Refinement Crystals" used for Weapon Exchange.

![]() [Rating] ★★★★★ | ![]() Supports Gen Narumi, who fights mainly with his Ultimate, with an Ultimate Gauge charge rate buff. |
![]() [Rating] ★★★★- | ![]() The DEF increase and DMG Taken Reduction effects both synergize well with Isao Shinomiya's ability to protect allies with a Shield. |
![]() [Rating] ★★★★- | ![]() Kikoru can apply debuffs herself, allowing her to make the most of Ax-0112's effect that grants increased DMG dealt when attacking a debuffed target. |
![]() [Rating] ★★★★- | ![]() Mina can maximize her potential without letting her buffs expire by alternating between Normal Attacks and Combat Skills. |
![]() [Rating] ★★★★- | ![]() Soshiro has his own Critical Hit-related buffs, allowing him to make the most of SW-2033's effect that grants increased DMG dealt on a Critical Hit. |
![]() [Rating] ★★★-- | ![]() Rin is an Attacker who fights with AoE Attacks, so she has good synergy with GG-5012, which provides a buff when there are many enemies. |
Best 5-Star Weapon Exchange: GS-3305
For the 5-Star Weapon Exchange in the "Weapon Exchange" tab, GS-3305 is recommended if you have Gen Narumi. He is a reliable Attacker, the only permanent 5-Star character with two Elements, and deals high damage against Core Exposed enemies. Equipping his best-in-slot weapon, GS-3305, significantly boosts his performance.
Choose a Weapon for Owned Characters
If you don't have Gen Narumi, you can prioritize exchanging for a weapon for a character you own.
