What Weapons Should I keep?

Once a weapon you are not interested in keeping reaches rank 30, instead of selling it, you might want to check if the weapon is required as a crafting ingredient of another weapon: Use CTRL  + F  or ⌘  + F  to use your browser's search function.

Crafting another weapon does not mean the product weapon is necessarily better than any of its ingredients.

A product cannot be crafted using ingredients that are still waiting to be claimed in the foundry. As such, managing the order in which weapons are claimed is a requirement if you have limited empty weapon slots. For instance, in the process of crafting the Akjagara: if the Dual Skana is claimed before you start crafting the Akbolto, you will need a total of three slots at the same time to hold the ingredients; whereas if you craft the Akbolto first, you will only need a total of two slots at the same time.

Also, if an ingredient is required multiple times such as dual wielding weapons, only one can be crafted in the foundry at a time. For instance, without rushing with platinum, obtaining the ingredients for the Afuris will take a minimum of 24 hours (12 hours for each Furis).

Beware that any applied Formas, Orokin Catalyst, Exilus Weapon Adapter, or Focus Lens on requisite weapons will not carry over to the newly crafted weapon.

Combined Blueprints

In this section are blueprints that require weapons as crafting ingredients (without mentioning their components). The weapons on the left side are consumed in the process of crafting the weapon on the right.

If you are wondering whether you should delete a weapon from your inventory (based on the currently known weapons available for crafting), use CTRL  + F  or ⌘  + F  to use your browser's search function to check if the weapon you wish to discard is present in the left side of this table.

The Dual Kamas, Tipedo, Bolto, Mutalist Cernos, and Akbolto are special cases in that they are both products and ingredients on this list; be careful not to sell any of these if you want to craft them.

Note that some weapons are listed twice in the below table for ease of access since it is sorted by alphabetical order. Primary weapons as crafting components
