Are any +1 weapons worth making given limited resources?

[craig234]

+1 is better than non-magic of course, but I don't want to make a +1 if it will use resources needed to make a better item. Are any +1 items worth making?

[guard65]

They are all the same and require the same and first material you get, usually. Of course the same +1 material applies to armor. I burn mine the second I can get everything. I end up replacing it when anything else comes up.

There are a lot of resistant to non-magic attack creatures out there, so half damage or full damage makes a difference.

nothing, re weapons and armor, you can craft in Solasta, is overtly necessary within Solasta.

You can usually find plenty of +1 weapons anyway, so crafting them isn't essential. However, its not worth hanging onto stuff because the stuff you need for +1 is not the same as +2, so its not like you are screwing yourself by using the ingredients. However, enchantable weapons and armour can be limited (depending on campaign, RNG, and what you are using) so that is really the main limitation.

so i assume you want to save primed weapon parts for late game top tier weapon

in cotm for example the best late game dps 1 handed str weapon is longsword,warhammer,battle axe
so if i if i got like
primed,scimitar,morning star,primed mace i will make it to +1 if i cant find any +1weapon

or if i just need 2 one handed str weapon one of the primed battle axe/primed longsword/primed warhammer to make +1

This. The mats for the +1 weapons are not very important to be all that careful with, but a second primed weapon/armor of the type you want can be very hard to come by.

But Grumpy is also correct, none of it is NECESSARY

[craig234]

I saw a post from a guy who quit the game a while because he was upset he'd made a weapon then quickly got things to make a better one he'd lost the ingredient for.

Stuff seems expensive. Upgrading to +1 is several hundred gold, to +2 is over 2000.

Yeah you do since the amount of primed weapons are limited unless you get lucky loot.

I save +1 crafting items for armour only usually. Only when I don't get the armour I am looking for at that. I save the primed weapons I want for a bit later on.

That is my strategy to. If you go to the second map you clear there will be a merchant there that has all the recipes you can use prime items in. That will help you plan how you want to use the materials. There are some items though like primed daggers that are a fairly common drop so for those I will go ahead and craft the +1 daggers while holding one for when I get possible ingredients later on.

This has gotten a lot better in Lost Valley as you can buy both the primed item along with the required ingredient to craft items for a good part of the campaign.
