In the Roblox incremental simulator +1 Assassin Leveling (developed by +1 on top), dagger unlocks follow a strict linear progression where every newly unlocked dagger is stronger than the last. Players unlock weapons sequentially in the weapon shop by spending Wins (also referred to in-game as Trophies) earned from clearing enemy combat stages and defeating stage bosses.
Because power scaling in +1 Assassin Leveling is fixed, there are no sidegrades or niche builds. The optimal strategy is always to purchase and equip the newest unlocked dagger the moment you have farmed enough Wins to meet its price gate.
Confirmed Daggers and Unlock Requirements
The developer description officially designates weapons as daggers, while players and interface text occasionally refer to them as blades or swords. Weapon shops require you to unlock blades in sequential order—you cannot skip ahead to purchase high-tier weapons without owning the preceding tiers.
The following table compiles the daggers, costs, and stats confirmed through official game data and recorded playthrough sessions.
| Dagger / Blade Name | Unlock Cost / Requirement | Source Type | Observed Notes & Stats |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter Dual Blades | Free (Tutorial starting gear) | Gameplay Observation | Basic twin weapons used to click for +1 Strength. |
| Frostbite | Low early Wins / Trophies | Gameplay Observation | Early-game unlock following initial wave clears. |
| Royal Standard / Royal Blades | ~100 to 200 Wins | Gameplay Observation | Unlocks after completing early stages and boss waves. |
| Infernal Eye | Hundreds of Wins | Gameplay Observation | Mid-tier World 1 blades featuring eye-themed geometry. |
| Void Arc | Thousands of Wins | Official Roblox Badge / Gameplay | Associated with the official badge "The Void Arc Dagger!!". |
| Soul Eater | ~2,000 to 5,000 Wins | Gameplay Observation | Bridges mid-tier World 1 progression; grants upgraded special attacks. |
| Thunder Strike / Thunder Storm | 50,000 Wins | Gameplay Observation | High-tier World 1 blade; observed providing massive strength scaling (+8,000 to +25,000 base bonus). |
| Amethyst Sword / Shard | 1,000,000 Wins | Gameplay Observation | End-game tier blade in World 1; purple visual model with heavy special attack multipliers. |
| Top-Tier World 1 Dagger | 5,000,000 Wins | Gameplay Observation | Highest cost weapon previewed in World 1 shops. |
| Shadow Sever | High-tier shop preview | Gameplay Observation | Previewed alongside Amethyst and Thunder tiers in the training hub. |
Where exact stat multipliers are omitted, the game client does not publish a public numerical stat card before purchase. However, the game guarantees that every subsequent tier surpasses the raw output of earlier weapons.
How the Dagger Unlock System Works
Unlocking daggers in +1 Assassin Leveling relies on three connected gameplay loops: Strength accumulation, stage progression, and currency farming.
1. Sequential Store Gating
You cannot stockpile Wins to buy late-game daggers early. Playthrough testing reveals that shop items must be acquired step-by-step. If you have 50,000 Wins, you must still purchase the preceding 2,000-Win and 5,000-Win tiers before the 50,000-Win dagger becomes purchasable.
2. Earning Wins and Trophies
Wins serve as the primary currency for weapon upgrades. You earn them by clearing enemy waves and eliminating stage bosses:
- Early stage bosses award baseline payouts (such as 10 to 25 Wins).
- Higher stages and timed quest rewards award 2x reward multipliers, doubling Win gains from runs.
- Clearing deeper stages yields escalating batches of 1,000, 2,500, 5,000, or 10,000 Wins per completed boss encounter.
3. Strength Thresholds for Combat
While daggers are purchased with Wins, entering higher combat stages requires meeting strict raw Strength gates. For example, clearing Stage 18 to unlock World 2 demands billions to trillions in Strength. If your damage output stalls before earning enough Wins for the next dagger, raise your Strength multiplier through Rebirths, pet hatching, equipping stat-boosting accessory drops, and playing alongside friends (which grants +10% Strength per friend in the server).
Special Attacks and Weapon Scaling
Beyond increasing your passive Strength gain and swing damage, higher-tier daggers alter your combat performance in two distinct ways:
- Unique Special Attacks: Upgraded daggers feature distinct special attack animations and strike patterns. Activating your special attack unleashes high-damage bursts capable of clearing boss health bars that normal swings struggle against.
- Immediate Equip Priority: Because older weapons possess no unique secondary utility that outweighs the sheer scaling of newer tiers, you should never keep an older dagger equipped once a newer one is purchased.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best dagger to use in +1 Assassin Leveling?
The best dagger is always the newest one you have unlocked and can afford. The developer specifies that each new weapon is strictly stronger than the last, meaning earlier weapons are entirely outclassed once a new tier is obtained.
Why won't the shop let me buy an unlocked dagger?
The shop requires sequential purchases. Even if you possess enough Wins to afford a higher-tier weapon like the 50,000-Win Thunder Strike or 1,000,000-Win Amethyst blade, you must first purchase all preceding daggers in that world's shop line.
