Julie's Gearworks is your go-to destination for crafting and upgrading the best equipment in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii. Located in the main city, Julie can take raw materials you've collected and transform them into powerful weapons, armor, and accessories.

Crafting Process:
- Gather Materials: Materials are found by defeating enemies, opening treasure chests, completing substories, or purchasing them from specific vendors.
- Select Item: Talk to Julie and choose 'Craft' or 'Upgrade'. Select the item you wish to create or enhance.
- Pay Fee: Crafting and upgrading require both materials and a monetary fee.
- Receive Item: Once complete, you'll receive your new or improved gear.
Julie's Gearworks also has a 'Gear Level' that increases as you craft and upgrade more items. A higher Gear Level unlocks new crafting recipes and allows for higher-tier upgrades. Prioritize upgrading your main party's weapons first, then focus on armor and accessories. Regularly check Julie's available recipes, as new ones unlock throughout the game.
