Best Weapons to Craft First
Roselia for Sakura
Roselia has top-tier attack stats and opens every fight with Concentrate and Sage's Eye. Together they boost her magic damage and how fast her spells stagger, so it is the strongest first pick.
Next Up: Lasswell, Lid and Nichol
These three also start each battle with strong buffs. If Lasswell, Lid or Nichol is a regular in your party, craft theirs next.
- Shisui gives Lasswell Hone Senses and Placidity for 5 turns.
- Mechabo Hammer SUPER gives Lid Overclock and the first move.
- Codex Providentiae gives Nichol Tactic: Fluid Warfare and the first move.
