Understanding the None Trait

Best Silver Recipes
Best used when forging DPS-focused weapons like Greataxe or Great Sword.
The go-to recipe for The Peak boss fights where survivability matters more than DPS.

Frequently Asked Questions
What weapons work best with Silver?
Fast weapons like Katanas and Daggers pair best with Silver's trait. Check the /weapons pages for detailed recommendations.
Can Silver be sold?
Yes, but it's usually not the best use. The forge value of Silver far exceeds its sell price. Save it for crafting unless you have a large surplus.
Is Silver worth farming?
For World 1 content and above, yes. Its 1.45x multiplier and utility trait make it a top pick. For early-game (World 1), you're better off with cheaper alternatives.
What's the best world modifier for Silver?
World 1 itself, since that's where the ore drops. Forging in World 1 also applies the local world multiplier bonus, boosting your final stats by roughly 10-20% depending on the tier.
Silver vs Other Ores
Against similar tier ores, Silver wins on trait synergy but loses slightly on raw multiplier. This trade-off is why most experienced players include it in trait-focused recipes rather than pure DPS stacks.
