Dragonhold Wiki — Complete Overview
Every major hub in one page — extraction ARPG guides from first flight to dedicated server hosting.
Welcome to the unofficial Dragonhold Wiki for Exis Games’ dragon-riding extraction ARPG on Steam PC. Dragonhold sends members of the Boundless Order from a personal hub island into the war-torn Azarkeen region — fight on dragonback and on foot, loot gear and materials, extract anytime, then rebuild Dragonhold castle and expand your town using Anchor Stones and resources. Hand of Fate modifiers and an AI Director keep missions unpredictable; solo play, online co-op, and self-hosted dedicated servers share the same progression loop.
This overview links every major wiki hub so you never hit a dead end. Early Access began November 10, 2025; Steam reviews often trend Mixed while systems evolve — track changes on Updates and read Early Access Review before buying.
Start here — new riders
- Guides hub — mission loop walkthroughs and first-hour path.
- Getting Started — hub island, first Azarkeen departure, basic combat.
- How to Extract — secure loot before greed kills runs.
- Extract Checklist — printable pre-run habits.
Guides — missions, bosses, castle
The Guides hub collects deep walkthroughs: How to Rebuild the Castle, How to Beat Bosses, How to Play Solo, How to Host a Server, and sibling pages for extraction timing and progression. Guides answer how to execute; hubs below answer what systems exist.
Controls — flight, ground, camera
Dragonhold lives or dies on readable inputs. The Controls hub links Flight Controls, Ground Combat, and Camera Settings — tune these before blaming gear for wipes.
Builds — rider and dragon power
The Builds hub covers Beginner Build, Gear Priority, and Dragon Upgrades. Pair builds with Items loot knowledge so upgrades align with roles.
Extraction — Hand of Fate and mission loop
The Extraction hub frames risk–reward runs: Extraction Mission Loop explains Fate cards, extract timing, and Director pressure in systemic terms. Cross-read Loot Guide when modifiers buff drops.
Castle — hub island and Anchor Stones
Between Azarkeen trips you rebuild on a private island. The Castle hub covers Anchor Stones, Crafting Stations, and town building as a visual tech tree unlocking vendors and recipes.
Items — loot, crafting, relics
The Items hub organizes Loot Guide, Crafting, and Relics — what to pick up, craft, and chase through extraction.
Map — Azarkeen and expedition zones
The Map hub orients combat geography: Azarkeen Overview for regional context and Expedition Zones for camp, ruin, and boss archetypes with loot biases.
Multiplayer — co-op and dedicated servers
The Multiplayer hub links Co-op Guide for roles and loot etiquette plus Dedicated Server for Steam server files and community-reported UDP ports (7777 game / 27015 query — verify locally). Hosts use Server Port Checklist.
Review — Early Access honesty
The Review hub provides buyer context: Early Access Review for Mixed review themes and System Requirements for Windows 10, GTX 1080 minimum, RTX 2070 recommended, 73 GB storage, and Steam Deck not officially supported per developer statements.
Tools — checklists for riders and hosts
The Tools hub hosts practical markdown checklists — Extract Checklist for solo/co-op extract discipline and Server Port Checklist for networking verification.
Updates — patch tracking
The Updates hub tracks Early Access changes from Exis Games and Steam — revisit affected hubs after combat, loot, Fate, castle, or server patches.
