Should I fortify my weapon in Bloodborne?

Yes, you should absolutely fortify your weapon in Bloodborne, as it significantly boosts damage, improves scaling, adds gem slots, and is always worth the materials, especially early on where Blood Stone Shards for +3 upgrades are plentiful and provide a much bigger impact than leveling stats, making your chosen weapon much more effective and fun.
