You Don't Need to Make an Ultimate Weapon Early Game

As you progress through the Main Quest, weapons obtained at higher levels can offer greater DPS, making it less critical to prioritize crafting Ultimate Weapons early on.

However, materials obtained from subquests for weapons like Thunder Cage or Nazeistra's Devotion are easier to acquire and may be worth crafting. If you decide to craft Ultimate Weapons, it's advisable to also research the Precise Phase Converter and Precise Control Axis to enhance your weapons effectively.
